Flegg are looking rather shady at the moment, I wouldn't put my house on them.

Flegg's problems is that reggies stole all their players

put Hayne, D.Williams and Inu back in Flegg and they win today easy.

Curently

NRL
1. Eels 34 +234
2. Dragons 34 +137
3. Broncos 34 +127

Reggies
1. Eels 40 pts
2. Roosters 34 pts
3. Jets 34 pts (I think)

Flegg
1. Dragons 41 pts
2. Sharks 35 pts
3. Eels 34 pts +275
4. Knights 34 pts +80
5. Bulldogs 33 pts

Worst case Flegg could finish 5th best case is 2nd.

Can u imagine if Blake Green was playing

We are lacking any creativity with our halves

spoke to Blakey today, has a hamstring problem and is trying to get back next week, we missed him badley, I thought Tavenar was ordinary.

Tell me Fui isn't a strike weapon off the bench, the bloke eats metres and makes breaks at will, Vella also played like an animal today, I really like the Delaney Williams combo, spewing there aint enough spots for em, both solid and strong didn't see anything lacking with their defence either.

Can't argue there.

bit hard to fit them all in Delaney has really impressed me in the two games he has played I thought it might have been a little too soon to promote him to the top grade this year.

yeh! how good is that. 2nd game for each of them, and they held their own quite admirably. not many teams could put promote a centre-wing combo successfully.

no way. these few games he gets now will give him invaluable experience for the offseason and next year.
if someone was promoted too early they'd be struggling. hes done a great job.

take ben smith for example. last year he was no better (or worse...just comparable) than delaney. and this year he comes along, knowing what to expect, and has totally dominated.

I agree now

I'm just saying that when it was 1st mentioned he would be coming in (was a shadow player for Benny v Dogs in round 23) while I was happy for him personally I thought it might be a bit early.

You can always bring players in too early and not have the same results that Ben Smith has given but it looks like Delaney may well follow in Ben Smith's footsteps.

our biggest selection headaches is the bench

Cannings has to be the highest paid player in PL, adn I can't see he getting back in into the NRL, he is there for depth only atm

then again, I'm pretty sure the contrcated players don't get thier full payments if they play PL

Agree Avenger. Hard to drop him on form. I know Wade has the runs on the board, but if it ain't broke, don't fix it...
