Kane Linnett

[Guest]

I'd rather have BJ in the centres and bring in someone like Towers on the wing.

BJ is all class.

From his first game, even though he wasn't standing out, he had the uncanny ability to beat the first tackler.

Still so young.

Why not have both and send SKD ---> Newtown for backup ?

Linnett made 7 and missed 1 in 60 minutes.
SKD made 9 and missed 6 in 80 minutes.
The dogs killed our right side defense as most teams have figured out.

Myles looked a little flat tonight, i think he maybe still recovering from his injury.

he may have been flat, but how good was his chase on Morris !!!!!!!!

When have you seen Myles come off after 13 minutes?
Only played 47 minutes in total, so something wasn't right but just his presence and how hard he tries lifts the team.

Myles is our Machine, he drives the engine that is the roosters !

Morris has truly made SKD his bitch.

He has a field day every day he goes up against him.

Yes and I am very worried about Morris Mark II as he is faster and better. Perrett and SKD will be sick of seeing his arse all day if Smithy doesn't find some extra cover for them.

Played lethargic, was he sick during the week or carrying an injury? A massive drop in performance from last Friday where Souths peppered him all night with kicks and he defused pretty much every one of them.

Kane will be back.

Guess you could say kane wasn't able today !

Just watched a replay of the game. I don't think Linnett played too poorly. The commentators mention Idris moving back into the centres at the 56 minute mark, perhaps it was purely a tactical switch by Smithy to have Aubusson combat the much bigger man and leave Leilua (who was having a very strong game) on the wing. Linnett and Leilua both have bright futures in the game and it will be certainly interesting to see where Phil Graham will fit upon his return from injury. With Justin Carney coming next year, our 3/4 quarter stocks seem much healthier than what we or I definitely thought at the start of the year.

Go Easts!! Really excited for the rest of the year!!

I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but jeez did Myles put us under some pressure towards the end. Not one of his best performances imo.
Dropped a ball cold after we scored, then gave away a stupid penalty for a high shot that gave the Dogs their last 2 sets on our line.

Shit myself nearly as much as the time Kouparitsis tried to pass the ball.

I wouldn't blame Myles there, Friend's pass was half a metre forward.

Apparently he was supposed to play for the Raiders a couple of weeks ago but pulled up injured. It ain't the first time this year. Not sure if it was related to his leg injury.

Carney can't even get a game for Souths Logan which is the Raiders feeder team in the Queensland Cup, it was a horrific injury he sustained and there must be severe doubts whether he will ever get even close to his best, was not a fan of this signing there were plenty of other options out there.

looking forward to 2011 we are still short out wide, so hopefully the club hasn't finished recruitment yet.

I guess Myles has enough credits in the bank from his monster perfomance all year to drop some clangers and be immediately forgiven.

But don't do it again Nate or the baggers will be onto ya like flies on hotel corridor poo!!!
