Desperate times call for fugging desperate measures!
So suggest myself, Fibro and the others I'll call the Panther equivalent of the "Co-alition of the willing."
I didnt think my Panther team would be popular, but judging by whats been going on at the team at the moment and last year, I dont think I could do too much worse than Elliot. As an elliot-supporter, thats a tough admission.
Here is a snippet of my rationales. I come in peace and for the love of the game.
Sugar is back to his old inconsistent ways. Souths have trained all off-season for attack, and his indecisiveness, hap-hazard execution and poor choices are just too risky.
At least at lock, he has a few mugs around him to keep him focused. Then he can break from the scrum, run angles and confuse the Souths defence. In defence, he will have the capacity break from the scrum quickly, sprint over to the ball carrier and throw himself at him.
This is 2008. Technique and tackling finesse are outdated notions of another era (1979-2007).
Graham is untested here, but as a young gun, in a big match, he will be full of zesty focus.
McCrone has a step doesnt he? He wont thrill at the sight of big Buddy Gorden and ??????? running at him to smash him, so he will use his step. Pencil note: in the match v dogs we had Paea defending as the inside centre who was as effective as Richie Williams. IMO as far as defence goes, Paea is not quite ready for fg. These are two great attacking players, but they are not quite complete footballers.
(Burrrp) I'll have another thanks.
Sammut and Williams will worry the likely Smith and Rogers combination. Sammut is, put quite simply, one of the best players in the comp on current form. Rogers is still dirty that Leary didnt offer him Wallace money.
Joey Williams will save his best against the club he dreamt of playing in a grand final for.
And despite his ordinary form so far this year, he is still a very good player underneath.
So much for Peanuts. Weve all seen him scared of being tackled. He's been allowed to frolic in and about the Centres for ages now. He is supposed to be a iron fist in a line of puppets. Regrettably, he seems to get caught up in the strings far too often.
Enoughs Enough! He has to toughen up. Jaiman Lowe or Greenfield will be the making of him in the front row. He cant get anymore concussed.
Priddo always saves a top game for Souths. He shows us no respect. I dont know why, but he doesnt care. I'd love to sign him.
Ok, thats enough of my co-alition of the willing.
One things for certain, whoever plays, these two desperate sides are ready to warm it all up and go down fighting!!
Kebab?
