Round 9 v Cowboys (preview, spoilers, post match discussion...)

[Panthers_God]

Good looking team. Didnt expect to see Gower, Lewis, Puletua, Gordon or Aiton to be named but I'm over the moon to see them there.

Looks like Gordon's finally got his chance! WOoooooooooOO!

Cmon boys we need to turn the season around and I'm sure if alll the listed players play we are more than a good chance of winning.

I love the look of that side.

The only thing that could be better is if Waterhouse and Rodney were swapped.

 

[Big Mick]

doesn't matter to me...its a fantastic side.

The only thing that could be better is if Waterhouse and Rodney were swapped.

Indeed.

But at least the "mix" is right. The best 17 we can offer, in my opinion.

 

[cainen]

I would probably have had Howland in ahead of Gordon, but really, I'm not bothered by Gordon's inclusion at all.

 

[choc_soldier]

Perhaps the feeling is that Howland is not quite ready.

 

[Schijt hoofd]

Great team.If Gower is fit and producers the form he had in the 1st 2 rounds ,we are a good chance.

Aitons selection on the bench has added a bus load of interest for us all.

 

[choc_soldier]

Does anyone on here think that JL will give Gordon the goalkicking duties?

He is quite the sharpshooter.

 

[Schijt hoofd]

I'm expecting Presto to take the shots.Will be more than happy to see Gordon have a go though.

 

[Big Mick]

Hopefully Gordon gets the kicking duties...he's a gun

 

[*Sandy*]

It's good to see our 4 boys back and great to see that Paul Aiton has played his way onto the bench and Michael Gordon into the starting side.

Do your best boys, that's all I ever ask and will always clap your efforts.

Matt Bell and Brett Howland have been added to the squad to travel to Townsville.

Matt Bell I can cop but Brett Howland after the way he played last week JL has got to be kidding.

 

[Big Mick]

Surprised they didn't take Swain and Youngquest.

Good to see Matt Bell going. Would probably have rathered Youngquest ahead of Howland but.

 

[NK Arsenal]

Gower is out!
May 05 - Craig Gower has pulled out of the squad to play the Cowboys tomorrow night.

His rib cartilage injury is still giving him trouble.

Nick Youngquest has been added to the squad, which flies to Townsville later this morning.

Coach John Lang will decide on his starting line-up after a training session at Dairy Farmers this evening.

I wasn't too disappointed with the game but I am starting to get extremely frustrated with our ball handling AND MASSIVE LACK OF SUPPORT PLAY.

One other thing is the incident with Nick Youngquest. What he did was stupid, deserved 10 in the bin (quite proud of how the boys defended when he went off) and should be in some trouble with the Judiciary over it. That's my opinion, everyone is welcome to theirs.
