Rnd 12 team list thread vs Bunnies

[Soren Lorenson]

At least if we lose this week, we’ll know it was all BAs fault, and if we win, we’ll be lucky they had players missing

If we win, we'll likely get the same team again next week. #catch22

Except BA chops and changes the team every week. Except his favourites. That are all the shit players he is best friends with

Imagine if we win and then next week he picks Salmon, Kaufusi and Mannah. I've developed a coping strategy anyway. Money on opposition. If we win it's well spent. If we lose I'm slightly richer.

f**ken I wanted to keep a semi reasonable attitude this week but f**ken glenneel’s inanity has thrown that out door

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think you missed your own point. The team went exactly the same with or without him, so why have him in the team at all? I thought the idea was to make changes that may actually make us a better team? Having him in there only encourages the same result. Losing 3 times more then we win.

Great coaching.

The bigger sample means we have more evidence that we were shit without him than that we were shit with him. And that's just last year. This year we've won 66% with him and only 20% without him.

Typical BA dropping our best player. And our best player is that shitmerkin? What an indictment on BAs recruitment!

I've said it from day dot.
Cant have Alvaro and Mannah in same team. Oddly we have neither.

It is a bit strange how Stone was dropped to Wenty then injured for the last 2 weeks and not played yet chosen to replace one of them.

Its a miracle!

Salmon knows his limitations at this stage of his career whereas Will Smith played last week like he had a huge skill set (he doesnt).

I agree, mate.

Salmon was doing just fine, imo.

 

[Eelementary]

What has W.Smith done wrong? Put in a few nice kicks and been solid behind forwards doing nothing.

Has anyone even considered that perhaps he gave the benefit of doubt to players who are signed for next year like Terepo and Evan's over Mannah and Alvaro. Maybe even to drive their prices down.

The better question is, what has Salmon done wrong?

I thought Smith was ok last week, but Salmon was playing consistently solidly.

 

[Happy MEel]

The only real head scratcher is Mannah being dropped.

With that in mind, I'd expect him to play and either Evans or Terepo to miss out.

Taka and Alvaro deserve to be dropped and Kaufusi and Salmon are young so a bit of rotation isn't surprising.

But that comes off the Hookerless head scratcher against Melbourne and the Fergo to centre head scratcher against the Panthers. I’d also argue that Smith and Terepo in the 17, considering who we have available, is also a head scratcher.

I think BA is giving me nits.

Salmon stopped playing solidly when the team started to go off the boil.

We weren't hookerless against Melbourne. In attack we had Gutherson at dummy half, where he does his best work. In defence we still had four in the middle.

Ferguson would've played centre due to Mennings being unavailable, and Kikau attacking our right edge. From a defensive point of view it was a great decision. How was anyone to know Gennings would play two straight games worse than any of his performances last year.

Salmon had 8 week in halves. I dont think he offered anything bar a body in defense.

 

[eel01s]

Salmon offered more than Smith ever has.

Kafusi should be in the side as well.

 

[TheParraboy]

Hopefully James Roberts wont be playing Friday or will he?

 

[hineyrulz]

You reckon being in the top eight at the mid point of the year, with this squad, means the coach is clueless?

His tactics, team selections, bench rotation and the all round shitness of our play tells me.

11 from 37, only at Parra that gets you two more years.

He was good in our last win, had a poor game against the Storm(but who didn’t ?) and gets replaced with a park footballer. BA’s new Kaysa Prichard.

We already have a very inexperienced side. I'm not sure a couple of blokes who could still be playing Flegg are what we need.

Zero from f**ken three you mean?!?!?
