Rumours and Stuff

[ash411]

The UK is for merkins too good to be backups but not good enough for an NRL top 17. I believe we're trying to retain Dargan as our backup but we would obviously need another one as well. Maybe Luke Kelly will come back after masterminding Souths to a 40 point win against us tonight?

We're not talking about your fantasies Pou.

Moylan on the market.

Broncos

I wonder if Cronk may pip up out in the wild wild west.

 

[Ring Gids]

Apparently we have wiggle room for next year. I bet Twiz's 6 testicles we don't chase him

Probably won't even talk to his manger. You know what the eels recruitment team is like.

Letting go Moylan to sign Cronk would be a little short sighted wouldn't it?

i know he's a great player but the money you would be paying him for 1 or at most 2 years at most it's a big outlay

Hypothetical here but Penrith merkin Cleary in on track to be highest points scorer. If Gunco stayed fit I reckon he would have beaten him by 20 points.

I really feel for Gutho. If anyone deserved to be part of our finals campaign, it's him.

Not if the merkin's going to leave anyway. Then again, he is contracted through 2021, so he's not exactly 'leaving anyway'.

No, that's right. If he leaves then they need to get the best available player. I think it's a beat up though. Apparently a looming finals series is not exciting enough for the SMH.

If Parra play the way they did last nite against the Storm it could get very ugly. The forwards were steam rolled by a very weakened Souths pack and inexperienced team.

And what are we going to do with Auva'a, a nightmare in defence. 2 tries scored against him and lucky there wasn't a 3rd when he came in, propped and fell over and the ball sailed into touch behind 2 unmarked Souths players.

The Storm will run at him all nite based on his performance. Maybe get him to play centre in defence and move Moses to wing. It appears as if Moses has 2 bodyguards, Auva'a and Mennings, and both come in to help leaving a 2 and sometimes 3 man overlap. BA needs to fix this asap!

 

[Happy MEel]

I'm more concerned with Smith at the back if French isn't fit.

Jamming in defence is how we play, especially on the right. Then other defenders slide behind the shooting outside backs. Jennings and Auva'a had their timing off last night, for whatever reason.

But Moses already spends plenty of time defending on the wing, with Auva'a at centre and Jennings three in.

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

If we play Smith and Auva'a next week then I'd expect them both to get hammered by Cronk.

Their weakness under the high ball is our biggest deficiency. I expect it to get a lot of attention.

Taka seemed to spend a bit of time on the wing last night. What's that about?

They are the sides biggest weakness in defence.

Bevan and Hoffman will come in.

I'm not sure if you didn't watch the game or are just so stuck on the "our forwards are shit" train of thought that you refuse to see anything else....
