TDD, Glitch Brown, Buster Hymen and The Grub all out of yesterday's fixture.

Was all kept very quiet amongst the other dramas.

Yet no word from the usual suspects on here hinting at changes.

Nothing

Who was dropped.

Who is injured?

Who is really injured?

Where did they pull that head geared Poly from? Yeah, yeah I know he's from NSW Cup side but what's he been doing there that prompted a promotion?

Have to wonder if Simmons, Hughes and Brown will play.

Brown has been our best fullback, just needs more involvment.

He's faster on the right :)

Maybe to get him and Cov back together? Maybe a perception they'd handle Jennings and Cranky Franky better.

I didn't mind that change but I reckon if Cov was on the left where he normally is Lewis doesn't score.

they handled jennings in both respects - attack and defence

jennings would have sucked fergo in too much, hence cov swapped sides

shame about cranky franky on that rampaging run though - which was a comedy of defensive errors

thats the end of Browns career at the sharks. He has had is go & has not aimed up. Sorry, I said the same for simmo. & simo is a merkin.

Goodwin it appears combines the best of both worlds being a useless lazy merkin who couldn't be assed to run anywhere, let alone off a mill.

Goddamit we are missing Kearney and Ross.

I'm really not a fan of Kearney at all, but yeah we miss him alright.
His support play would have seen at least another couple of tries scored last night.

And Ross, well I think that is glaringly obvious although I thought it was a better effort up front this week.

Come on Rick, bite the bullet and put Orcher at fullback this week. He trails well up the middle and is bloody quick.

Nothing to lose brother!!!!!!!!!!

How did Donnelly go in NSW Cup?

Selmes offered nothing again. We're missing Ross big time up front.

Absolutely. Bronx isn't up to it and the others ricky's tried have been makeshift options. Fullback is a specialist position like half - you need to play there week in week out. Orchy should squeeze Bronz out, he's carried the oranges for the boys long enough.

I've always said you were a smart man Eion.

You down there on Saturday evening numb nuts?
