If you're putting Smith on the wing, why not put Tahu on the wing? Ben Smith aint a winger.

Widders is an impact, must stay on the bench. Wagon definately wont play next week.

We should keep the team how it is, We had an off night tonight and a few of our players were brought back down to earth.

I dont think we should drop anyone, Grothe wasnt too bad. We just didnt put any pressure on the Roosters in the second half. Too flat, too much dummy half running, poor 5th tackle options. I know people say it was a game we needed to lose, but I actually thought we needed to win if we're any chance of a title. Oh well we meet them again.

Just poor options. And poor weather. The weather brought the two teams closer.

Still I would not change the team.

Only change would be to bring McKinnon back

if Wade is avaliable play him at fullback if not play Burt (who I'd admit had a very good game before getting injured) if both are out give Joel Reddy a chance.

Other then that same team.

why does someone have to start a thread after each game, win or lose, picking a new side for the next game?

if smithy made changes this much, he'd be getting bagged.

I dont think there's a need for changes except McKinnon coming back in and Hindmarsh out for Origin duties.

If McKinnon had played tonight he would have ended up like Craig Wing. Facing an extended time on the sideline with a hamstring tear or an aggravated groin injury.
The conditions did not suit a player carrying a delicate leg problem.

Petersen did nothing wrong if any winger is to be dumped it should be Grothe.

Could you just chill out, take stock, and come back in the morning when you have calmed down so you don't say any thing else stupid?

Stringer was quiet, but the whole team looked so hesitant in attack. Changes dont need to be made.

I'm sure the stats are wrong on Stringer - I can almost count 5 hitups off the top of my head....

And it has Ben Smith listed as 0 linebreaks - we all remember Guru putting him away down the right hand touchline in the first half don't we??

Conditions interfered with the effectiveness of our sharper players. No footing limited opportunities for us.

rain killed our bench plain and simple i wonder if putting cannings in for widdo last night would have made a difference widders was quiet due to the rain (but then again the side was really). I wouldnt be tempted to change the side unless we have to ie hindy, guru out SOO, burt peto injuried etc...
