If Edwards isn't quite right do you take the risk? Not an easy decision at a 1-4 start to the season. I'd rest him with a longer turn around for the Roosters Saturday night fixture.

Nope. If he’s not right, he shouldn’t play. It’s a long season and we need him.

I think most would agree but at 1-4 you really start to feel the pinch.

Its becoming a fleeting chance of finishing in the top 4 this year. Manly in 2021 is an outlier (They started 1-4) and they are the only team who has achieved that in the last 10 years.

Write off the Panthers at your peril but our primary goal would be the top 4 not just the 8.

The problems are mostly mental. Surely they have had a few hard conversations and we see improvement
I think the biggest improvement tonight will be Edwards barking instructions in defence from the back. And also defusing scoring situations from the Dolphins with his positional play.

Laurie, whilst he tries hard, cant do either of these at a level we need.

If the team remains unchanged and we lose by 20, what then? Start booking end of season trip for September for a change. Who were the last team to win the comp and fail to make the finals the next year?
On a positive side, if our season goes pear shaped, there is some good money to be made by backing our opposition. Panthers always under the odds, especially the last 4 games.
