Yes I don’t understand taking that risk as you only need a clip to the head and your off even if not your own doingHe was asked about this during the week. He knows its a risk but thinks between S'ua and Kyle we have cover if an outside back goes down.. Don't necessarily agree with this but at the moment we are very dependent on a game plan revolving around 4 forwards on the bench. I guess with the roster he has in 2024 he prefers to gamble and take his lumps when it goes wrong. As long as he's learnt the Eisenhuth to centre lesson.
Yes also dogs have been lucky in many games. Warriors lost 3 outside backs in that game and had to play forwards out of position, if that didn't happen warriors would've won.How important was that win the Dogs got against the Warriors when they won on golden point. The Warriors were denied a clear penalty right in front in the end which instead put the game into Golden point. Saints would be equal with the Dogs and if they win would move ahead. Instead if Saints beat the Dogs, they will still be behind due to points diff.
Goes to show how important these key decisions are for refs at the back end of games. That was a clear penalty which everybody agreed on in the end.
Exactly this. Well said!If Curran is ruled out, I'd drop Lawrie and bring Bird onto the bench as a safety measure.
There's a lot of hype around this game, everyone talking it up, many lining up to kiss Doggie/Gus/Ciraldo arse.
I hope we win and send the Doggie fans into riot mode so the rest of the world is reminded what a bunch of cnuts that club really are. It would be worth it just to see Anasta scrambling for excuses.
Don’t forget us dropping the Manly gameHow important was that win the Dogs got against the Warriors when they won on golden point. The Warriors were denied a clear penalty right in front in the end which instead put the game into Golden point. Saints would be equal with the Dogs and if they win would move ahead. Instead if Saints beat the Dogs, they will still be behind due to points diff.

I wish and hope you are right , but I'm not feeling it ........Across the park we are not quick but Sloan and liddle are genuinely rapid , so we have enough speed to cause damage out of dummy half , in support or out the back w Sloan presuming our forwards are holding their own and line speed and intent is there in defence.
I’ve got a good feeling about this one, hope I’m right
Kikau particularly is good on the chase so hopefully Sloan gets plenty of protection.Burton had supposedly put that bomb away but has bought it back out recently.. there is no doubt they will pump sloan.. im expecting them all to be contested.. but the better we go up front.. the less time they will have to put that kick up and get a chase going.. they have a few guys who can chase though.
