    It would be great but definitely not expecting it. I’m more of the view it’s too little too late and that it’s really more about Robbo’s redemption after playing musical chairs for no good reason with players positions. We see now players playing a lot better at their proper position. He’s got to learn not to use the season proper to experiment’. That’s what trials and pre season are for.

      The draw has been engineered for a blockbuster match in the final round against souffs.

      I expect another bloody, brawling battle.
      1985: 1 try vs Parramatta, 1 try vs Manly, 1 try vs Wests, 2 tries vs Souffs
      1986: 2 tries vs Illawarra, 1 try vs Balmain, 2 tries vs Norths.

          I don't know whether to be flattered or concerned that you're following my posts so intently.

            Making the finals every year is good. Even if we become cannon fodder, it's better than missing the 8.

              What's booing got to do with our season this year?

              2yrs running the coach has us needing X amount of games in a row to scrape into the 8.

              This years even worse with our +/- so bad that we highly likely miss out even if we win out.

              How about he get it right for 26 rds & not the last 6 rds. Next year should be his last if he can't.
              Very Socialist of you to say I should leave the internet

              You have a rather unhealthy obsession with Coach Robinson - post after post after post dishing him - still can't let go of him saying not to boo a certain player which has triggered this 2 year obsession

              If anyone took the time to analyse this season by looking at the squad - games played vs games missed and the form issues you can pinpoint why the season is where's it's at

              But of course you won't do that as it doesn't suit your anti Coach Robinson view.

              It's not the best squad either and in any case to be a so called best squad you need the players to be available for the bulk of the season

              As I said before the following possible best side have not played even 1 game as a combination this year and won't either
              1. Tedesco
              2. Toops
              3. Momirovski/Billy Smith
              4. Manu
              5. Suaalii
              6. Keary
              7. Walker
              8. Collins
              9. Brandon Smith
              10. JWH
              11. Crichton
              12. Sitili
              13. Radley
              14. Turpin/Hutchinator
              15. Lodge
              16. Watson
              17. N Butcher
              18. E Butcher

              You still cannot answer who else was to play centre instead of Suaalii when Paul Momirovski/Billy Smith were unavailable for selection - Momirovski until round 8 (played only 2 games) and Billy Smith until Round 10

                  Yes as predicted, the flimsy media pundits are now rating us a genuine contender for the top 8 . If we win next week we will be premiership contenders . And these people get paid for their views .

                    The anti-Robinson posts have become so boring. So predictable. Obviously everyone has an opinion which should be the case. At this stage of the season mine is that we should back the club, back the team and the coach. Easts to win (sorry Ray)

                      Yes, of course I did. I was beginning to wonder what took people so long to take the bait.

                        I'm not paid or qualified to 100% say who should play where or who's better suited....that's Robbo's job.

                        It's his stubborn persistents to stay with something thats clearly not working & just keep letting it drag on & on & on.

                        I certainly don't have an obsession with bagging Robbo, I loved the guy up until the last 2yrs where he has been overtaken by other coaches & the game itself.

                        He needs a major rebuild in his coaching & fresh idea's & people around him.

                        it's looking likely he's been here too long & too much mediocrity is being accepted as the norm now.

                        Needing the battered Dolphins to be down a man to score the majority of our points & finish them off doesn't instill any feelings of we're back. Also the completion rate was poor like usual.

                        Thanks for the memories Robbo but if it's more of the same next year then on ya bike.

                          ah yes bag Coach Robinson mercilessly but have no idea or solution on what you would do.

                          That's priceless

                          As I have said before and will say it again leave it up to the paid professionals

                              I've done the NRL Predictor ladder and can confirm that things are looking positive IF we win our last 3 games.

                              We got a massive break against the Eels...Moses is out and we have a good record against them...even at their home ground....Should WIN
                              Then we Should beat the bottom cellar dellars the TIgpies....otherwise we deserve to miss if we somehow lose that......Should WIN
                              Then finally the grudge match against an out of form Souffs will decide our fate.

                              Believe it or not, we will have a better FOR & AGAINST then the Faiders.
                              IF we win last 3 then likely the Eels, Souffs and Faiders miss the Eight.

                              We will likely play a finals match against the Knights up their home assuming Knights win today. And we have a good record against them.

                                Ah yes defend Coach Robinson passionately but have no idea or solution on what he can do to make things better.

                                That's priceless.

                                As I have said before, Robbo is a paid professional & has to lift his game or see ya later
