TLT vs Rnd 6 Cowboys ~ Sat 5:30pm

[the phantom menace]

Wow, welcome back Bryce!

And wow, BA had the guts to drop Sivo (even after 2 tries)!

So Harper back in, and Asi in place of Blaize - fair enough.

Greig back down in the forwards pecking order too... but that's presumably to allow Ofa to start in Junior's place as per the opening few rounds.

 

[the phantom menace]

Hands isnt even in the extended squad list - is he injured?

Yes, that surprises... BA seems to still have faith in Lussick as an 80m hooker

 

[JokerEel]

Not a fan of Grieg he will get passed soon by a few Juniors

1) Cartwright was always week to week and remains so.
2) Sivo dropped (not injured as named in 22) so maybe BA did find a new set of balls.
3) Whether they wear 6 or 7 doesnt matter, halves are mostly one side of the field these days anyway. The optics of giving Blaize number 7 would look worse than giving it to Brown and taking it off Brown says more negative than positive.
4) Harper is a better centre than he is a winger and both he and Simmonson are currently defensively better than Blaize.
5) It is very exciting.

 

[Gronk]

Brown is wasted at halfback.

Asi will play 7 like has been in Cup.

Had a feeling they'd "rush" Carty back in - more than likely he would have been straight at BA's door on Monday saying i want to be back in, needle me up.

Have a feeling we'll get Moses back Round 10 as well after the bye

Cant they just chop off Moses' little toe?

Don't agree with 3/4/5

Browns game has been shocking last 2 weeks due to the added pressure of it being his team.

Harper is crap at centre or wing Simmonson was good last weekend at centre and deserves to keep that spot. That's just the issue with our squad though..

No comment

Bet he doesn't.. BA has shown he is stubborn and doesn't like being proven wrong..

Cool, each to their own opinion.

Added pressure excaberated by having a rookie #6 in the team.

Yep, but this is probably the best options available based on the squad we have to pick from.

It the issue was his toe, sure.

 

[JokerEel]

I would be fine with Brown at 7 if BA changes the way he played but unfortunately super coach thinks your split your halves.

100% on the squad we have to pick. Its unfortunate but we will get belted this week.

Massacred.

Not if we find the right attitude somewhere on Windsor Rd and bring it with us to CommBank.

I don't care about your opinion. You don't get that stalking people with your probing scarcasm and then LOL calling them out as victims when you snag a reponse is trolling ? THAT is the definition of trolling. That's what you do. You follow people around that have opinions that don't align to yours and troll them.

Reminder, I am not being forum cop here, YOU did your usual trolling to me this morning looking for a response. Correct ? Own it.

He is a massive troll. Don’t feed the merkin, put him on ignore.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Should have picked Sanders 2 games ago..

Now there will be more pressure on him which I think is going to make it a failure...

Sanders isn’t ready.

 

[Parra Pride]

I’ll celebrate Sivo getting dropped when it’s a permanent thing and not just a knee jerk reaction.

 

[King-Gutho94]

gee obviously BA doesnt agree that Lussick was craphouse and a cause of some of the mistakes we had and getting bounced off in defense last week and the prev week

BA's new super cool glasses are still waiting for the updated script to come in.

He could only see as far as sivo plodding on the sideline last week.

Give him time hopefully this week he can see the middle part of the field.

I had to laugh at BA looking clueless in those things
