I fear that if we drop this its all over for another year. Talk that head may be given the punt for the rest of the year has me worried. Lets hope with some forwards back and being hodgos last game at campbelltown some of the skirts that have been playing recently lift their game. P.s- If payne is named ahead of laurie etc, then its certain the supercoach has lost it

Sheens said said that Laurie will be in the 17 for this game. Hope Teo gets the boot with Payten and Galloway back.

Iam afraid our club has nevile no chance against the storm or any other serious contender. Iam not sure what it is, but things are getting worse as each year rolls on not better. Sheens can throw all the excuses in the world, but till he has a long look at himself nothings going to change. Most clubs are building up while we are slipping away

The coach certainly hasn`t helped matters with some of his selections, but the bottom line is the fact that we have far too many cats in the side who refuse to put their body on the line to force an error when defending or to bust a tackle when running the ball. I don`t care who the coach is or what he tells you, a first grade footballer should well and truly know that when the game is in the balance you need to hit hard and force a turnover and when you`ve got the ball you need to constantly get deep and run onto the football at pace to make a line break or make something happen. We simply have too many who don`t have the heart required to do this. If we were fair dinkum we`d be ruthless and start flicking these players, contarcted or not before we go another season of misery again in `2009 !!!

AND DON`T BOTHER RE-SIGNING
Matthew Head
Ben Te`o

Antonio Kaufusi and Michael Greenfield would provide some much needed size and aggression and more importantly depth in the front row.
- sign Ashley Graham who will run onto the ball at pace to replace Dean Collis and we could do worse than the seemingly unwanted Michael Witt at halfback. He will run the ball, he`s a great kicker of the football, a great goal kicker and defends better than the halves we currently have !

Hard to argue with a lot of that except you're kidding about Halatau, doesn't run hard - he's the hardest runner in the f**king side. I'd keep him ahead of Fulton, sure Fulton makes some tackles but he never stings and if we're looking for a utility/impact player off the bench Halatau makes more sense in my mind.

A Galloway / Galloway front row combination is awesome.

mate that is beyond dreaming - you reckon greenfield will come over to provide depth.

I've seen some dreamin before but this is up there.

Do you think it is that easy to flick blokes over to other clubs - might be achievable for some - but not 7 or 8.

Tigers will be much better next week with some real props back in the team.

Lol - at everybody asking for o'hara to be back in the team. When was the last time he played?? When he was playing he was awful. Plus he wont be here next time - he at least needs a few weeks if not the rest of the season in NSW CUP.
Play Payten, Gibbs, Galloway and Laurie as prop rotation.

Teo will be dropped - as will Tandy etc.

haha Witt - are you kidding. He would be in your top 17. LOl and your criticizing Sheens. Witt doesnt to anything execpt for kick goals.End of story. Last week he was going to get dropped for a u/20s backrower in the 6 jersey.

He should board a plane for the UK - hopefully an ESL club will be dumb enough to buy him.
