Anyone see Laurie get to dh on that one quick ptb? Picked it up quickly, darted out and very nearly put someone through a hole. Got another quick ptb, wanted to take another and was pushed off the ball by the worst player I've seen in iur shirt this century.

Hed 100% make a better plan B hooker than that wage thief. Covers us at fb/wing as well.

And that isn't what we want from a bench utility.

We want D. Whether BS can do that or not is irrelevant in this case. Laurie in the 9 won't stand a chance against middle forwards.

Anyway, conceded a few more points than I'd like, but their tries were either very slick bits of play or broken play after Edwards dropped a bomb. With the ball we were great. Clinical and dominant. Cleary looked back to pretty close to his best which is a great sign. Our middle was outstanding, Leota and Paps in particular. Good tune up prior to the actually important games.

Ivan just admit you're wrong

I hate that utility seems to be about covering 9 over everything else.
Laurie covers the half’s better than Schneider, covers fullback and at a push the wing.
I would also rather see Alamoti on the bench than not in the squad, I’m fine with him at 14.
Fangs is right though, we all know Schneider will be there, he has sucked all year but Ivan won’t change it now.

This happens every year until we start winning finals games and then the criticisms start going quiet..we played at 50-60% Max.. let that sink in..Dyl needs a few more good moments..BS replaced by Laurie (Defence differences noted)..and pedal to the metal as needed and we got this..

Alamoti need’s to be in the 17, sorry Milky. Schneider needs to be dropped awful. Patea needs to be in as an X factor. If we are going to carry a 14, at least carry a decent one. If an injury occurs just deal with it on the run don’t carry someone just in case.
Schneider has proven to be a passenger at all times except 1 game against the Roosters last year, enough of that hack. He is going to cost us a game and it is now sudden death. Cole or Soni Luke for mine in then 14.
