I would be more concerned with a passenger, whether it be Scott or Dodge or anyone else, playing poorly, has costs us the 0.25.

Sides are about balance and contributions by individuals for the collective good.

Never think a well performing side cannot be vastly improved by removing an individual playing poorly.

Not just one poor performance, but a consistent lack of quality in whatever key indicators that player is using.

Everyone is entitled to the ocassional off game.

I also think what tends to happen with all the talk in here about this. We tend to go looking for every fault and ignore a lot of other stuff going on outside those two. They have both been guilty of some real clangers, but so have others in the side Faoso springs straight to mind. I think a lot of our really good performances this year have been on the back of some strong efforts by our forwards. Games we've lost our forwards have had off days. As plenty have said in here if they don't go well it's pretty hard for our backs to do too much. When they do go well (and that is more often than not) it shows how lacking we are in the creative areas because most times we struggle to convert good field position into points, the Storm game was pretty much like that, we had a heap of opportunity, just couldn't get over the line, even allowing for the storms great defence, a bit of vision would've gotten us there. You have to ask who is calling the shots out there in attack, who is organising it?

Can you list posters names?
What I see, is people on here that are pushing for dureau it is because they think he is a better option in the halves than rogers. I don't see anyone on here talking him up like he's the next andrew johns to say the very least. So I'll say it again, who r the posters on here that would "Lay out the red carpet"?

No reply to the above by Karma. As per usual he shot his mouth off early and can't back his comments up...:p

Oh come on man , its called tongue in cheek dude. Surely even you can get that. Like someone using the term ' 1000 times ' for something that's happened a few.

As if anyone will roll out the red carpet for a reserve grader. ;-)

Tongue in cheek? Well why bother saying it at all... It's easy understanding tongue in cheek in person, but not when it is typed on a forum. Maybe in the future say what you actually mean, rather then constantly saying things for a reaction.

OK BIHK. I didn't realise anyone here would be so serious ( or unintelligent ) enough to actually believe that rolling out the red carpet for the arrival of any footballer to EAS could have been anything other than humour. :lol:

Yeah it does. A lot of your comments are so ridiculous, it must come down to you trying to crack jokes rather then being serious. I get it now lol
