Round 7 v Rabbitohs

[aussies1st]

Shillington probably will be suspended for one of his two offenses which leaves us in a trick position. Troy Thompson all but certain to come back which ain't going to help our handling. McCrone also injured which probably means Herbert back at halfback. Would prefer trying someone else out as we are going back and forth between the two and we aren't getting anywhere.

I'd go

1. Dugan
2. Stuart
3. Croker
4. J.Thompson
5. Vidot
6. Campese
7. Williams/Mogg
8. Logan
9. Tongue (c)
10. Tilse
11. TLL
12. Harrison
13. Fensom

14. Miller
15. Thurling
16. Carney
17. Shillington (if suspended Mataora)

Stuart has been pretty average but we have no one else atm, Carney a bit underdone still and Robinson ain't an improvement. And big no to Kelly.

 

[Macko8]

Picker out,he hasnt impressed me this year.

Dont bring herbert back,id go so far to say give phil dennis a crack at 7,try something different furner.

 

[Raidersrawesome]

I dont think Dennis is the answer.

I just hope who is chosen to play turns up.

1-Dugan
2-Stuart
3-Carney
4-Croker
5-Vidot
6-Mogg
7-Campese
8-Logan
9-Dennis
10-Shillington

[skeepe]

Still hating on Dane Tilse despite him being our best last night again?

You have nfi.

 

[Timbo]

Skeepe you're forgetting one very important thing - I don't give a flying f**k about you or your opinion.

 

[skeepe]

Skeepe you're forgetting one very important thing - I don't give a flying f**k about you or your opinion.

Not forgetting it, just trying to take your mind off your sick, murderous thoughts towards players who have done nothing wrong but play sport by attempting to discuss footy.

You stick to dreaming about being a murderer, it's clearly what makes you happy.

 

[aussies1st]

From what I've heard Dennis seems to be able to organise things so might be a better option than Herbert at least. Else we have to throw Williams in but I got a bad feeling he'll be star struck and leave Campo to do the work.

 

[Cryptic]

1 - J.Dugan (Even though he didn't play great last week)
2 - J.Carney (I know he is only just recovered but Stuart was hopeless)
3 - J.Thompson
4 - J.Croker
5 - D.Vidot (Although tempted to swap him with J.Monaghan once he is fit so our back five can be all J., lol)
6 - Campese (But he needs to f**king step up and DO SOMETHING)
7 - Mogg (Honestly, from what I could see on TV, it at least appeared he was trying to direct the team, which is what we need!)
8 - TLL
9 - Tongue (But only for 20 mins... swap him out with someone afterwards... No idea who put but whoever that is as #17)
10 - Shillington (Unless suspended, then Tilse)
11 - Harrison (Although he was well handled last night, he also didn't get given the same chances he usually does)
12 - Thurling
13 - Fensom (f**k me I hope he is fit!)

14 - Logan (Does awesome from the bench)
15 - Tilse (Unless as above Shillington is suspended, then make this... Miller?)
16 - A Ultility player??? Picker maybe...
17 - A Hooker if we have one...

The only other thing I thought of... Put Campese on bench in 16... Maybe show him some humility to wake him up a bit??? I'm not sure if he is lacking faith in himself or direction but something needs to change! He can't take 10% of our salary cap and perform for 10 minutes a game!

:roll:

Don't you have referee's to blame for us losing by 30 points?

[shear_joy9]

1-Dugan
2-Milne
3-Croker
4-Thompson
5-Vidot
6-Campese
7-Mogg
8-Tilse
9-? anyone but tongue
10-Logan
11-Harrison
12-Tongue
13-Fensom

14-Miller
15-Learoyd-Lahrs
16-Thurling
17-Kennedy

Stuart and Picker are out injured (I wouldn't have selected them anyway) and McCrone is expected to be fit to play.

 

[matt]

Please tell me Skeepe is not putting that Loss down to the referees again,it can't be so,Can it?

 

[matt]

Tongue was horrid,absolutely horrid,I like Timbos thinking outside the box with Dennis.

 

[sydraider]

Id run with Mogg at 7 if mcrone is out.

I still dont know why we signed him but he could be useful.

 

[raiders fan forever]

1.Dugan
2.Carney (if fit)
3.Croker
4.JT
5.Vidot
6.Campese
7.Mogg
8.Tilse
9.Tongue
10.Logan
11.Harrison
12.TLL
13.Fensom

14.Thurling
15.T.Thompson
16.Miller
17.Dennis/Utility

 

[Timbo]

Until Buttriss or Waddell are back on deck, we have to stop pretending Tongue is the answer at #9. He's not a shadow of a #9, and the irony is he was close to the best #13 in the competition before we moved him there, and this has seriously ruined what he was best at.

 

[Raidersrawesome]

Shillo has been cleared to play , He was found guilty but wont get suspended.

 

[Dazraider]

ball control ,ill keep saying it cause its the olny thing that has killed us so far this year.
give away too many easy field possesion and lose it on early tackle counts.
Souths will smash us if we cant hold onto the footy.

bingo
if you cant control the ball then your not going to get field possession and are less likely to complete sets.
something furner will need to address
