SQUAD v BULLDOGS

[Monaco's Fan Club]

Am I drunk ???

[mightyrooster]

Why isn't Manu at fullback and Teddy rested?

I would’nt be surprised to see Suaalii moved to FB and Toups added to the team with Pauga shifted to centre.

I like your team Coach Kelby!!

[Headless Chook]

Bulldogs have better wingers and centers than us - let that sink in....

Yeah naah. Kiraz and Averillo are good players but the other two are only just. Alamoti may be a good player one day but he's not quite there yet

[RoosterBooster]

I said it last team announcement and will say it again, if you’re picking Allen on the wing you have problems. Robbo really is poor with OB identification and development. Picking second rowers in the centers , utilities in the centers, recruiting Allen and Paulo when we have the same standard of winger in reserve grade.

Is it possible that Sualli has a contract clause that he must play centre in 2023/24 ??

In my opinion, Paulo has been our most consistent player this year, I’m convinced he was thrown to wolves as Robbo can’t swallow his pride and dump Sualli.

Toupnuia playing lock …?? I like the idea of playing him in the middle as his lateral defence is dogshit. But, has anyone see if pass/ distribute the ball ??

The Butchers are budget

Hutch is …

If we lose to the Bulldogs, surely Robbo is put on notice.

[Roosterfarian]

What gets me with Robbo’s selections is that even blind freddy can see that our attack is so much better with a halfback who can bring structure into it. We need that controlling halfback who straightens up the attack and plays less adlib letting Keary do hos thing at 5/8th. Did he not see the merits in that second half against the Dragons? Pick Sandon or even Hutch FFS and have some balls to put Swaarhelli back on the wing.

[BTRD]

Crap team at this stage. Anyway, what can us "plebs" do? Robbo is a fan of Robbo. A loss this Sunday is on the cards. Penrith after this.

[kakaruk]

Surely Robbo is playing games you just can't keep picking Joseph at center and Manu at 5/8 it is just not working and then we have Allen on the wing and Hutch as utility no wonder we are struggling to win a game and we won't win one with this line up if this is the run-on side then the dogs will get up . Robbo can't persist with this madness a couple more losses and the season is done it will be a repeat of last year at best or more likely we miss the 8.

Bulldogs have better wingers and centers than us - let that sink in....

Now do the same for the forwards and bench.

If our forwards can't steamroll this mob we don't deserve to be in the finals.

[King Salvo]

I am confident of them winning this game - anyone else of the same view ?

[milanja]

I feel for paulo getting dropped over Allen, made some errors, but he puts in more than others, and I haven’t seen what Allen offers in any department.

we can only cross our fingers and hope, because that dogs team looks awful, and they’re the type of teams that somehow beat us.

I believe it is do or die this week. We have panthers next week, so this is as crucial as it comes.

[QWERTY]

Manu shouldn’t be 6, much rather Keary 6 Hutch/S.Smith 7. Surprised Paulo was dropped, he has been better than Allan and especially Suaalii.
