Yes and no.

It wouldn't be hard for the government to mandate vaccinations for essential workers, public servants, welfare recipients etc.

I got my second shot yesterday, and I'm only 37. My partner is a health care worker, which makes me eligible too.
I have a friend who works in Corrective Services, and whose partner is a nurse - so he's eligible on both counts, and he's dragging his feet on it. Saying things like "they should be coming up to work and doing us all, I don't have time to go to the clinic downtown". I'm sure if they put him on unpaid leave until he got it, he'd find the motivation.

I am the same age but being aboriginal qualify (Although work wise I prob do too). I think they just didn't expect the nutter anti vaxxers to get such a following. I cast blame to both sides

Burton has played only on the left side. Either centre 2 in or moved in one to be 5/8th.

Crichton had 3 games at left centre.
Then fullback for 5 weeks.
right centre for a couple more.
Then fullback for 2 more.
Back to the left for the last 2 losses
Now is back at right centre.

It is great he is so versatile but the downside is it is hard for consistent form

I'm talking about how Burton hasn't played 6 for a long time outside the one game againstthe Storm, but you were ruthless in slamming him for everything bad that he did at 6, and only grudgingly allowed that he had a good 20 minutes at the end against the Sharks (with excellent kicks!), all the while complaining that May is the scapegoat. You seem to have your favorites and apply rules differently for them.

Anyone think Naden is a chance of playing tonight?

I hope he gets a run on staines wing.

Im sure hell have apoint to prove

Won't happen. Even if for arguments sake we say he deserves it.

Ivan will only play him on the wing through injury and then only if Jennings is also unavailable. He'd be a better shot at centre but is behind Burton, Crichton, Momirovski.

This isn't an opinion on ability but how Ivan rates the roster based on selections this year. Naden would have to absolutely dominate reserve grade.

Burton played 6 in NSW Cup early on in the year. V Storm in Round 3. Played in the halves a few games last year and has been signed as the Bulldogs saviour next year as 6

Compare that to May who last started in the halves for Samoa in the mid year tests of 2018. Has never played 7 in NRL

Every commentator hell even Ivan said the kick chase was poor in the 1st half. Every kick was done by Burton so that is on him.

Whether he should of been left as the only kicker in the side is another discussion

I was suppose to have mine today, first jab, got cancelled at the last minute. It is mandated for those who work as front line essential workers, and the military. However, others it is not. It is wrong, and I agree with you.

I hope so. The side needs a boost of energy

We're gonna lose tonight... (Nah, we'll win. I just don't want to come across as smug... I'm not very good at it though :( )

No Jenkins in Flegg- Momo was injured not dropped
Given 2 forwards have dropped back down. May is going to play forward which makes him at 7 last week even more strange
