your team selection for next week v raiders

[spirit of league]

obviously changes need to be made ! :roll: come on stuey

the raiders are a tough, physical team. i'm looking for more experience in the backline and and plenty more backbone in the forwards.

blood aitken now and get him up to nrl standard asap. sullivan to play 80 mins. hilder to cover dummy half at a pinch. any injuries thru the backs to be covered by sullivan or bailey.

there's still a few in there i'd have on short notice to perform.
hope i've accounted correctly for injuries and suspensions.

1. peachey
2. merritt
3. vagana
4. saleh
5. reick
6. aitken
7. kimmorley
8. stevens
9. sullivan
10. beattie
11. gallen
12. bailey
13. hilder

14. nutley
15. williams
16. galloway
17. newton

 

[mullet]

[Dragon Slayer]

I'm taking it that Beattie and Sullivan are injured.

Also that Gallen and Merritt are fit.

1. Peachey
2. Merritt
3. Vagana
4. Emelio
5. Reick
6. Aitkin
7. Kimmorley
8. Stevens
9. Gibson
10. Williams
11. Galloway
12. Gallen
13. Bailey

14. Hilder
15. Newton
16. Nutley
17. Bickerstaff

 

[Special K]

1. Peachey
2. Merritt (if not fit Simmons)
3. Vagana
4. Bailey
5. Rieck
6. Aitken
7. Kimmorley
8. Stevens
9. Sullivan
10. Newton
11. Nutley
12. Galloway
13. Hilder

14. Williams
15. Pelo (Green)
16. Dumas
17. Gallen

Bailey moved to 4 means Vagana gets more ball.

Pelo on the bench. Comes onto the wing or centres and moves Bailey to the backrow. I put him on the bench due to not being sure if Green will be ready to play next week. If Green can play then I'd like to see him on the bench.

Aitken gets a start at 5/8. I hope he can create something :?

Beattie won't play due to that head injury last night.
Rieck and Simmons were poor.
Hilder is NOT a 5/8.
Bailey and Vagana can't play on the same side of the field.

[Craigshark]

Assuming everyone is fit -
1. Peachey

3. Vagana
4. Saleh
5. Rieck
6. Dallalana
7. Kimmorley
8. Stevens
9. Sullivan
10. Beattie

14. Williams

17. Dumas

Drop, Bosnich, Bickerstaff, Isemonger, Simmons (not that he did to much wrong) and McGoldrick.
Bring in, Merritt, Saleh, Stevens, Gallen and Dallalana.
I thought Saleh played great in Premier League. Dallalana had a solid game and can only make our side better.

[warren]

are you serious no peach!!!! he has been our best so far and a pretty ordianry team..... thats crazy !!!!

 

[Frailty]

Im dead serious actually...

In my own personal opinion (as bad as u think it is), he has not been playing to first grade standard, and to call him our best, is ludicrous.

I think he needs a kick up the ass, and i think a week in PL would do that for him.
I probably take out bailey and nutley for that matter, and put in some good PL players like Williams, he was a best forward on saturday.

 

[warren]

the last time a well respected player like the peach was dropped they left the club....i don't know about you but i wouldnt risk that with Peachey, we all know how much of a skilled player he is.

 

[RICHO]

You can't just let him keep playing with no intensity and looking disinterested though.

The whole lot of those boys need a kick up the arse. Although you'd think being smacked by Souths and then the Cowboys would be enough hey?

We will see if there is any pride left in the Sharks team at 5:30PM next Saturday. If there is, watch out Raiders. If not, we'll get done by 30 (again).

 

[warren]

if its the lack of intensity that gives the peach a week in reserve grade, then the whole team should be dropped because not one of them plays with the intensity that we need.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

OOhhh what the f**k. The team will be the same with two exceptions & thats the sensible thing to do.
But, I'll throw this one amongst the Birds

Merrit
Bailey
Vagana
Simmonds
Reick
Peachey
Kimmorley
Stevens
Sully
Beattie
Lomu
Galloway
Nutley

Dumas
Williams
Vagg
Aitken

get ya heads around that one!!

 

[RICHO]

You been drinking again Reefy?!?

Looks to me like you've got Bailey on a wing, Simmons in the centres, and nutley at lock. Correct?

 

[fizman]

Not only would I drop Peachey, I would release him from his contract.

I thought the commentators said it beautifully last night about Peachey being in the habit of running sideways and linking up with his wingers. Nice piece of play to pass the ball to Simmons and run straight into him.

The sooner we also get rid of the new Coach the better for us all.
