Prediction:
If we don't drastically improve our defence Manly's second phase will destroy us, especially through Jake T.
If they take Moyza out, or his body gives way, SJ and Chad will be playing their "normal" game and be torn apart on this forum.
Prediction

Agree. Got to stop going for the big hit every set and wrap the ball up. If we let them offload like the dogs, they’ll put 40 on us in no time

Not to mention the non-existant line of defence.
How can a team that prided itself on its defence fall so far, so quickly.
Thats where it is coaching issues. Fix that and we may get a sniff at 8th spot.
Whom is our defence coach?

Needs more Billy Magoo

Bad habits from that dope dymock

When is Newtown playing again?

John says run through the middle.

7 props, all our edges play 80, now 9 does too.

As opposed to their 3. They are stacked with big, running second rowers. 7 props is fraught with danger. 4 forwards on the bench is fraught with danger when a side has the likes of Moyyyyzzzaaaaa who might break at any time. Who's the backup 3/4 for us? Nikora?

I'm dubious about that named side.

1. Brendan Elliot 2. Jorge Taufua 3. Brad Parker 4. Tevita Funa 5. Reuben Garrick 6. Lachlan Croker 7. Daly Cherry-Evans 8. Addin Fonua-Blake 9. Danny Levi 10. Martin Taupau 11. Joel Thompson 12. Curtis Sironen 13. Jake Trbojevic 14. Cade Cust 15. Jack Gosiewski 16. Sean Keppie 17. Taniela Paseka 18. Morgan Boyle 19. Abbas Miski 20. Haumole Olakau'atu 21.Toafofoa Sipley

I don't buy that. A decent defence coach can fix deficiencies very quickly.
Ours are getting worse.

Who is our defence coach? Do we even have one?

Craig Sandercock? Dave Howlett? That's the 2 assistants.

I see Daniel Holdsworth runs the water.

 

[Jono Russell]

Am I missing something? Why isn't Nene named? I'm sure we signed him.

He has to he 10 years younger then Goodwin and much fitter.

Out of the cold. Goodwin has been with Souths all year and UK the last few. Nene off a broken leg and nothing.

Pretty sure he was about 10 kilos over weight.

He’s dropped 6...

But is probably in need of a fair bit of conditioning to get him up to speed.

The other question is - who do you drop?

A week ago, we all would’ve said Katoa...

Then, boom!!!!

 

[Jono Russell]

Well when the bastard is fit I would have Nene and Ronaldo as my wingers.

 

[bluefox68]

Nene and Ronaldo as my wingers.

Yeah, I agree...

Another option - which JM will not take - is:

1. Duges
2. Ronaldo
3. Ramien
4. Goodwin
5. MacDonald
6. Moylan
7. Johnson

 

[carinashark]

Nene is not ready. Not for this one.

 

[chewsta]

Ronaldo is a pretty handy centre too.

Yeah - I was thinking once Ronaldo gets over his injury...
