Round 12 vs Donkeys - Team List Thread

[Eelogical]

Is it surprising BA has nominated the 6 to 1, 1 to 6 change? Why advertise it? Could have just run it on game day.
Maybe the pressure has him broadcasting this in an effort to appease the nay sayers. Maybe hes sending an open message to Corey. Imho there is more to this change than the actual swapping of players.

It's very conniving!

There is definitely some signalling going on, and I don't mean Gronk's favourite kind.

Or Gary's, I hope...

do not like, but on the other hand I dont believe they will line up this way

OK, let's read about your thoughts. BTW, I don't like it either. At this point it's akin to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

f**k it calling it also. Norman is dropped this week. Salmon scaling up into his first game at 6.

yeh, dont like Norman at FB or Vave starting, but then again I dont think it will happen

 

[Djay]

Who knows could give Norman a kick up the backside.

Would you like to see chinook get a chance or save him some more?

I dont think he is NRL ready yet, but if we are still a basket case later in the season we may as well give him a run, nothing to lose

At least we dropped Arrva after his terrible defence efforts

 

[lingard]

AlGutherson is suboptimal in the halves just as he is at fullback. But he is wasted in the outside backs.

At first glance this appears to be a ludicrous statement. But it is correct. Gutherson is a terrific footballer - but he's not a fullback, not a five eight and not a winger. He's certainly not a forward, and not a hooker. But still one of the first players you would pick in your team, and is currently our captain. A genuine utility. I actually suspect his best position is centre. He's not a genuine five-eight, but will probably do a better job than Norman currently is.

You reckon BA is really telling Norman he’s number 1 in BAs book?

"Yeah, Gutho goes ok, but you're number one in my heart, Corey..."

Evans will be back.

I hope so. It's f*cken exciting, anyway.

 

[strider]

Clearly just getting Corey out of Moses' way

 

[Lemon Squash]

If we someone manage to fluke a win here I highly doubt it will be on the back of the positional changes...

It’s not a long term solution but f**k me I suppose we couldn’t go any worse could we?.... COULD WE???

Yeah Josh Reynolds said that the move was more about BA saying to Moses “this is your team now”.

Josh Reynolds is clearly a smart man
