5/8 playing on the right side with bird and Lewis. Bird at right centre and one of luetele and Beale left centre.

I don't understand the desire to move bird out of 5/8
He is on a confidence high
Played the best squad and nailed kicks defence and attack
The halves have been a problem and a solution drops and people want to shift him

Does not compute

Bird must stay at 5/8 now, would be crazy to move him after that.

Barba can play a bit of that role but leave 6 on Bird's back FFS.

I dont think it matters if he wears 6 3 or 13 he can still be allowed to kick

I see Beale is credited with 3 tackles and 5 missed tackles, pair that with his sublime attack and we have the buy of the century

two tries
one try assist
defended well
showed pace
great vision on not only the try assist but backed himself on fifth tackle to seal the game

flanagan was most likely saved by the win today, imagine if he takes Bird out of 5/8 and they return to playing shark-ball again next week....

Barba off the bench will do me fine.

We can't carry 4 forwards on the bench, I've never been of fan of that anyways

Well I am confident that Beale is just out of form and. An come good

Not all that sure about the other one though

I think barba this year has played better than both and they should be the ones facing relegation

Nothing would surprise me. Tough choice for him. I wouldn't change the Holmes/Gordon combo - aside from Bird, best part of todays game

Wow

Long time no see
Please stick around and post
This place has really turned into a boring echo chamber

Barba honestly needs to play NSW cup. He has zero confidence. Bird is full of it and it rubs off onto team mates. Barba doesn't fit the team at 6 or 1 atm.

Halfback - Robson has never been up to a full attacking player and Barba will benefit from running the show

How about at lock running off the forwards shoulders waiting for the offload. Only problem is his defense.

Barba can't run his ass to the toilet as a half, let alone run the team.

Robson has proven he can run a side around the park, albeit he lacks the attacking flare a good strong 5/8 can bring.
