Rd.27 v GC

[Fangs]

Edwards chances of a rest has been hurt by the other bums in the side. If we were playing better he'd get a rest

We have to rest some players. Damned if you do/don't.

Edwards isn't 100%. He is just too important in the finals. Laurie and Iongi have been very good at fullback for us.

 

[Chins get the wins]

We'll beat Easts home or away but I'd rather not play on that dodgy field at the SFS

Stew Moses said Leota had a leg injury of some kind but not 100% sure as have heard nothing since. Anyone know?

I'd be happy if Dyl gets the week off. We want that knee right.

Do we? most have missed chunks of the season through various reason.

Combinations or lack of is the big issue

My mate heard similar on the coverage but after the game. No ice or any strapping

Yes but if a player looks injured why take him into the game? Its the final round.

We shouldn't go in with everyone. Just take a risk and pick a decent enough team to do the job. Laurie/Iongi are perfect for that.

 

[Black Diamond]

Performances in 2024 say otherwise

Maybe so but your comment that he cares more about Origin than his team is crap

 

[Kilkenny]

I wouldn’t be resting anybody, unless the injuries they are carrying and there are a few who clearly not 100%, prevent them from being able to play.

We need some positive momentum, combinations going into the playoffs so I don’t see to much benefit of resting certain players.

Looks injured and being injured are different.

He is going to play in finals then get a week off.

Martin's whole game is effort. He made far more for NSW

Dylan's knee is rooted. He's the only guy I'd rest

No doubt it is, I’m not sure the week off will make all that much difference, no doubt requires surgery once our season comes to an end whenever that may be.

Laurie in for Dylan shouldn’t impact the outcome so if Ivan does give him the week off all good.

 

[BossleyPanther]

The same time last year we had a F/A of 301 compared to now 180. Plus we won 1 more game last year.

Sucks he'll miss out on the Australian fullback gig

That stat probably says a lot about our season to date.

As I have said over the course of this season, we haven’t been the powerhouse side in 2024 but there is a lot of reasons for it.

We've done extraordinarily well in my opinion to be in the box seat to finish 2nd on the ladder after the regular season all things considered.

we are in with a fighting chance, can’t ask for much more than that really.

That's your opinion not buying it.

I agree. It's been heavy this year and the toll of the players being so successful has shown. Plus we had so many distractions starting with Kenny, JFH, May and To'o... So many injuries too.

It isn't the outcome of this week it is the week after that.
The attack is in need of some combinations and as you said. Surgery is no chance so play
