Teddys role

[The Brain]

With Radley gone a lot of set plays went out the window

[King Salvo]

Personally if paul green isnt working next year i would get him back coaching with us. He and trent looked closeas mates and worked well

gees how many coaches do the need - currently have Fitzy/Kingy and Cayless as assistants

[King Salvo]

He had 10 runs for 91m mate. Keary also had 3 try assists in the penrith game so I don't really know how you could say he is in poor form. If you are blaming anyone it should be Flano who adds so much pressure onto Keary due to his lack of runs. Also Keary is so deserving of playing origin, has missed out a few years now due to injuries and what not so it would be cruel of the club to say he shouldn't play SOO. I would absolutely love to see Keary in that arena with some of our other boys as he is built for the big stage.

just going by what fox match centre has on stats for the game

[Larry Long Balls]

Flanagan has had a good chance. He is too one dimensional and seems unlikely to lead us to premierships. I think he would be better off at whatever club his father is with.

Rads was badly missed.

It was a massive loss.

Jeez I was watching a couple of our earlier tries we scored when we were on that great run after the Covid break.. We looked so slick and quick with rads in our team, running to the line attracting the defenders then a bullet pass to Keary out the back with teddy in support... just had the defence back peddling most of the time. We tried to replicate what he does but couldn’t find anything close to it. Let’s not forget he brings passion and enthusiasm on the field to the other boys too always talking and getting amongst it. Can’t wait to have the inflictor back.

Just checked, Flanagan has only played 29 first grade games.
We really need to give him at least another season before we make a decision on him.
At 29 games there are some great signs. But, that's been said about so many halves - only a few become great halves.

I don't really care what the running statistics said that Keary had a poor game - if so, why did Fittler put him in the Origin squad?
I was behind the goalposts at the southern end of the SCG vs Raiders, and believe me, Keary was causing the Raiders plenty of headaches, and he was causing plenty of confusion in their defensive line.
We were coming home with a wet sail, and Klien knew it. If he had ruled penalty on the head high tackle on Morris , we would have scored in the next set of six - I have no doubt about that.
You can look at statistics all you like - they are not the sole indicator on who has a good or bad game.

Oh the irony ffs.

Fittler had him in last years squad until the head knock ruled him out - one figures Fittler will have Wighton at centre meaning it will be between Keary and Walker for the 5/8 slot - with either Gutho or Lomax as the other centre with Turbo out-Tesdesco FB with Addo-Carr and Toops on the wings and Cleary as half

[King Salvo]

Oh the irony ffs.

If Toops was outside JMorris it would have been 6-all or 6-4 at worst and maybe the Chooks would have got on a roll - one will never know and as they say its fish and chip wrapper now.

Yeah we lost so much without him - vital in defence vital in our attack - the attacking rads as a ball player was also getting better and better. We all wouldn’t have noticed Flannos deficiencies if Rads didn’t get hurt - we would have been perfectly happy with Flanno underplaying his hand and kicking general play and goals.

Knives already out for him(Flanno) though - i think the articles raises some important points - different hookers/ form of some senior players/ radley missing/injuries/burnout etc.

It would be a knee jerk reaction if they didn't stick with him as after all he must be the lowest paid regular half in the comp @ 280k and had big shoes to fill- but such is life as it's easy to target and blame one player for a teams downfall. Hello Mitchell Pearce the ultimate scapegoat
