Mark Hughes - Yes he can have a shocker and lose a game but he's also capable of winning a game. He has proven both numerous times.
When is the last time he has been a game winner? I'm guessing the last time he was Andrew Johns played - probably Matthew Johns as well. He is past it and it is an insult to players in Premier League that this guy gets an automatic place in the team week after week (when he is actually fit).
Bradley Tighe - Won't do much without Johns unless Witt continues his PL from. Johns made him look like Tahu last week.
Oh please...give the guy some credit. Brad Tighe is the future of this club, has looked classy in a team getting flogged week after week.
Kurt Gidley - Needs to realsie he isn't a playmaker. Just needs to give our backs some space and have a dig at the line himself.
He's being paid to be a bloody playmaker. If he isn't going to be the playmaker - who is? Steve Witt?
Steven Witt- He is the key. Was outstanding in PL last week but we need him to bring that form up. He has been unable to thus far. Kicking and passing game were 10/10 last week.
If he is the key, the lock does not exist. Time after time his form in Premier League gets talked up, and time after time the guy does
absolutely nothing. He is going to be the reason why we lose by 50. His kicking game is ordinary, his defence is simply non-existant, has he actually attacked in first grade? Will be glad to be rid of him at the end of the year.
Steve Simpson- Simpson has picked up his work rate but imo his quality has gone down. We need to see the explosive Simmo running at Lolesi all day. We will need his big hits to assert some dominance over the Dogs.
His quality has gone down because he is a second rower playing in the front row! He is also one of very very few to actually have a go every week.
Kirk Reynoldson- Changed my opinion of him last week. Gutsy player and tough as they come. He copped alot of punishment last week but kept us going forward. He will have to replace the big void left by Abes injury.
He offers nothing in attack. He is an honest first grader at best but isn't going to change a game at all. Overrated.
It isn't the worst team ever but they certainly will be doing well to be within 20 points of the dogs all game. With that been said an upset is possibly on the cards if they turn up.
An upset is not on the cards. The halves offer very little, the forwards are light-on, and the backs are full of past it players who get a start because they are on too much money, and young talent being played out of position.
Bulldogs by at least 30.
