If cook is dropped for this week Maguire better hope we win.

If we lose the Cook Sooks will be out in full force, even though it would be the most common sense approach.

For me Farah has played himself into an 80 minute role. Can't really complain with that outcome. I'm not a hypocrite I want Souths to win haha.

This would be my 17:

1. Alex Johnston
2. Robert Jennings
3. Braidon Burns
4. Bryson Goodwin
5. Aaron Gray
6. Cody Walker
7. Adam Reynolds
8. Tom Burgess
9. Robbie Farah
10. Zane Musgrove
11. John Sutton
12. Angus Crichton
13. Sam Burgess

14. Jason Clark
15. Tyrell Fuimaono
16. George Burgess
17. Anthony Cherrington

Fuimaono, George Burgess, and Cherrington would probably provide good impact off the interchange. Clark can cover any position in the forwards, including hooker.

I would have Jennings on the wing because his defense might be better there than what it is in the centres, and I'd try Burns in the centres instead of the wing because he still looks a weak under the high ball.

The problem is we are playing the 3 reserve graders who wouldn't make it at the top 6 clubs in Tyrrell, Clark and Turner plus turnstile Jennings is in!!!!!!

Also I have had guys messaging me this morning saying dropping Cook is sheer lunacy. Farah is as slow as a wet week and doesn't have the pace anymore!!!!! Cook could come on and catch out those tired Cows forwards and we look quicker and energised with him on!!!!!

I guarantee you about 90percent of Souths members won't be happy with bringing in Turner over Cook.... just wait for the uproar after the game!!!!!!


I hate to say this guys but I think Madge has lost the plot!!!!!!! I think we need a new coach who will sweep the broom through the place!!!!!!!!



Clark, Tyrrell and Turner are all mediocrity!!!!!!!!......... FACTAMUNDO......

Sorry mate but we need Cook in there!!!!! Farah is as slow as a wet week and can't catch out tired forwards!!!!!!!! Cook when he comes on makes us look much faster and energised!!!! He is a breath of fresh air!!!!!!! You should see all the love for Cook at our home games and wait for the uproar on Facebook after this Sunday...........

Madge has lost the plot!!!!!!! Soon we will be pushing Cook out fully for old hack Farah who is near retirement and then bringing in a young hooker who is probably slow like Mcturtle!!!!!!!!!



Sorry mate but Clark, Tyrrell, Turner, Jennings, Burns would not make it at any of the top 6 clubs!!!!!!.....

If we continue like this there will be years of failure.... FACT........

So 90 per cent of members would rather their pet cook get a run even though he is shown to not add anything to the team, over procuring cover for Chricton so that if he's injury does have an effect during the game the club isn't afraid to take him off.

Maybe the stereotype of souths supporters that gets thrown around in this forum is true.

Turner isn't good cover......... FACT.......

If Cook is just out for 1-2 weeks fine but we must keep him.....

Farah doesn't have the pace anymore!!!!!!

Tyrrell, Clark, Turner and Jennings wouldn't make it at the Cowboys...... FACT......



Cook adds spark and energy and we look more dangerous with him on and he can catch out those tired forwards which Farah can't........

Cook hasn't done any of what you are saying. If he did he wouldn't be in line to be dropped. If he did he'd still be coming on before halftime not the last 15 minutes.

If turner, clark and tyrrell are duds then so is cook. At least the other 3 have a premiership ring

Well there is a lot more to be a hooker than speed, and Farah is playing pretty good. I don't think Cook is bad though.

I don't have confidence with Burns on the wing, because he looks dodgy under the high ball, but he could be fine in the centres where he wouldn't have to deal with that much.

I don't have confidence with Jennings in the centres because his decision making in defense is dodgy in the centres, but he might be fine on the wing.

I think Clark is handy on the interchange because he can play any position in the forwards, including hooker, and we need someone on the interchange who can play hooker in case Farah gets injured during the game.

I agree that Turner and Tyrrell are only back up players. Actually, Burns and Jennings are only back up players at this stage too, and I wouldn't have them in first grade if GI and Hunt were available to play.

Sorry mate but Cook will never be a starting 1st Grade week in week out Hooker at any club.
I really hope I'm wrong but I just don't see the game craft required.
I see speed and agility and that's about it.
I don't see any resilence or
Toughness and I don't see him as a leader which your Hooker needs to be.
He's a game breaker to be played from the bench.

Farah is going well but I think Cook has been going well.

Farah doesn't have the spark.

Cook makes more metres too and gets us on the front foot and he gets quick play the balls....
