Round 4 vs Eels

[Spazer]

Read sloan will be dropped for mbye, anyone know if that's true? Would be disappointing if so but it's very much a Hook thing to do.

 

[DaSuperHero2]

With the changes due tomorow.

We are royally f()cked

 

[Spazer]

Yup sloan dropped and amone to the bench for mbye and bird.

Well the master coach had to do something but it’s got the smell of desperation about it.

Our issues of concern are discipline & defence not sure dropping the kids fixes either.

The key out this week is Su’a he’s been pretty disappointing thus far.

 

[RedVee_8]

f**k no.

I expected the two youngsters to be rested from firsts a couple of times this year ala Walker at roosters last year.
But this is a bit early I think… smacks a bit of desperation

Very poor from Griffin.

How about persisting with youth rather than relying on the non existent x-factor of a journeyman.

I don't understand what is to be gained from this. We have very little strike as it is.

Desperation , yep so what happens if Hook does not get the win ? Will he drop Mybe, Bird ..... Dont think so .....

 

[TruSaint]

What a spine.

MBye / A Mac / Bird / Hunt...

That'll show them.

 

[Shaun_Timmins]

Is this for real? Don’t tell me Hook has been reading some of you lot on this forum!!

Mybe goes from bench one game, cork, starting hooker and now fullback - what goes on? He is the specialist bench player that we need. Has Bird got a kicking game? Wow, not liking the proposed spine at all.

Late Mail: Dragons coach Anthony Griffin is expected to axe young guns Tyrell Sloan and Talatau Amone, according to The Sydney Morning Herald. The report claims Sloan will be left out of the 17 completely with Moses Mbye replacing him at fullback, while Amone will move to the bench andJack Bird will shift to the halves. It comes as veteran hooker Andrew McCullough is tipped to return from an elbow injury at hooker

From Foxsports, Im not happy about this.

I guess the above team list must be wrong ?

Eels v Dragons: Matterson, Cartwright return; Su'A, Ramsey to miss

The Eels came up with their best performance so far this year in round three in downing the Storm but the opposite was true of the Dragons in their loss to the Sharks.

If you want to change fullbacks wouldn’t Moga be a better option with his height and size than MBye.

Looks like speculation to stir us up from the Herald. Which is odd. That’s more of a News move. Ducks and drakes from the 9 media.
Thanks @getsmarty

The positions in the halves calls for guys who can do tactical kicking really well and set up the back line in my opinion. Most teams have them - the Roosters for instance have Keary and Walker and you can throw in Hutchison as well. Parramatta have Moses and Brown. We have Hunt and who else?
