No surprises there. Hopefully Saffy is in for Halatau. Didn't see him do anything spectacular in P/L last week to warrant a recall where as Saffy had a good game.

 

[smeghead]

Or Saffy for Whats.

Frankly TNT is better on the wing as an 80 minute threat at this stage of the season

 

[super_coach]

How and why would you not have Saffy in the top 17--but he will end up their on match day. The odds are Fulton will get rubbed out for a week now he is having a crack at defending his charge---Their must be a good reason for doing it other than you think your clean

Was hoping Gibbo back this week.
Bench looks weak as if Saff-Man drops off.

What?!??!!

Please tell me this is a gee up. he misses nothing if he takes early guilty.

 

[smeghead]

Not taking the plea

Club is fighting it

 

[innsaneink]

And if he loses hes out for a week?

Or two?

Dumb move.

 

[smeghead]

One week if he loses.

Apparantly the club has "new angles"

Bad move considering this was the first week of the NRL crackdown methinks

 

[innsaneink]

Yeh, just read his angle, I immediately thought he'd not be happy when first heard he'd been charged, hes very proud of his defensive game, rightly so...but yeh smeg youre right, bad timing.

 

[brooksy19]

Silly move to fight the charge tbh.

Not keen on the bench, a tad small as per the usual, guess We'll never actually come to like it unless we win every week with it :lol:.

Pointless having Phatz & Dene, though I Dene covers for Robbie if he doesn't go the distance, but wouldn't morris be a better option out of the 9 ?

 

[super_coach]

Deano on the Bench ??Sheens is going for a repeat of last week speed at the play the ball. Although Tony Archer is in charge and that usually mean a slow play the ball. Suits teams with big unskillfull meat heads--like souths--of course big roy being the exception

 

[FirstHitup]

Your spot on Super_Coach this game will be dictated by the referee. If it's a grinding game my bunnies will win. If it's a quick play the ball your speed men will carve us up starting with Farah in the middle.
