Bunty done 2 hamstrings?

Must be both mending well. Back in round 12 for both

 

[Beastmode]

This gonna be the banana skin game of the round

The last two months the boys have been on a high.

They looked mentally drained and tired last night.

ALOT of lapses in concentration.

Quite a few from snr players - Tohu, RTS, SJ.

Not sure how Webby is gonna fix this - especially when we lose mr energizer battery Jazz.

Maybe needs the young youth to go out there and lift the team

Or we need Walker and Marat back - mean and hungry.

I feel we're moving into the trough phase of the season after the last 6 weeks of highs

 

[tyrael]

Didn't Ale play 13 mostly last year in NSW? Like he can go there when Tohu plays prop. CHT needs more size to be there more than a short spell.

We're definitely one prop injury from disaster. Definitely need to blood Zyon Maiu’u just because of this. If Laban has to go for Pomps then so be it but Webby needs to think mid term gains. Will see how Dragons play this week before I think of a team.

 

[hornbybrown]

Ali in for Montoya, Zyon Maiu’u for Jazz

 

[Zaggo]

I wouldn't mind seeing Going in that final bench spot to play 10 minutes. His ceiling is fairly low but he'd do the job of running and tackling.

I’d prefer to blood Zyon Maiu’u and see if he has impact in first grade but you are right. Going would do a job defensively but have the lower ceiling.

 

[Tookey 2.0]

Kinda a no brainer to go with Zyon Maiu’u, were losing AFB next year so we kinda need to test these players out to see what they have.

I know there's no easy wins this year, but against the Dragons coming off of gaining 7 from 8 points in the last 4 rounds, I can't really see a better time to take a risk on him

 

[tyrael]

Was great last week but too mixed from week to week for me at the moment and think all that’s saving him is he can play 80 minutes. I personally think Laban has done enough to leapfrog him to start and Ford to the bench. Think he could do a job in the middle to come off the bench if necessary or else Laban switches to middle when he comes onto an edge? Fords defence could be seen as necessary to being on RTS’s edge too with him still green in the position?

Montoya, RTS, Laban.... Doesn't look great on defense.

 

[CWC]

If we don't laugh, we'd cry (I'm still crying)

Laughing so hard you are crying lol

 

[CWC]

TBH Ford was very good in R2-5, perfect game against Newcastle, last week dropped a hospital pass late, and this week had a bad drop which ended the streak, but the 2nd drop was a bad pass behind him from SJ

Ford needs to pick it up or Laban will get his spot. And to be fair I would think the thought is crossing the coaching staff's mind each time that Laban takes the field and does well.

I love what Laban brings and his potential.
At this time we are needing minutes from all our forwards. Ford has some mistakes but also minutes

Why dont you also call out RTS then?

 

[Wrighty]

Why dont you also call out RTS th

He has been either ok or good in other games, RTS;s only bad game was last night. Ford is a repeat offender

Rts has made crucial errors at wrong times in multiple games but you can't pick on him because of his pedigree.
Ford is a solid player who plays 80 minutes imo he's doing well he probably needs a spell but the 50 50 balls he receives superman could catch them!

 

[Muddogz]

Ford is safe, plays long minutes and runs great lines. Makes a fair few errors but he can sort that out. Left side is a bit clunky but that’s Martin and RTS not Ford.

RTS is going to need some time to work out centre and what’s required of him and Martin’s in the same boat. Will be unchanged apart from who replaces Jazz. Probably Zion but Webster may like Going as a more similar player to Jazz.

AFB if you watch him closely, and Barnett for that matter catch the good balls, the 50 50 ones, and even the bad service from dummy half. That is a valid comparison as Ford is plying his trade in the NRL the best competition in the world and only well above average professionals should be getting 80 minutes each game. Ford has bad hands.

Yeah Ford is far from being dropped mate if you want to drop him with a couple hospitals then you must call out others also.
