Jock madden is playing half. It will be interesting how he and mann go as a halves pairing. The cows should be favourites, but id love to see madden have a good showing. Beyond the halves its a fairly even contest, and i think the cows could be caught with their pants down if they are off the...

Its just bad luck. We were always going to play him in a trial and its something that could have happened the first time he was tackled. If he is out for a round or two so be it. Its a shame but is probably our position with the strongest depth, seeing as cobbo, farnsworth and staggs consider...

I would have had him playing against wynnum as well. I think the more mozer plays in those kind of games, the better. It would test him without exposing him to too much criticism. Anyway you cant play them all and maybe paix needed the run.

No probs. Im known to have the occasional brain fart so i was checking aherns age for myself as much as anything. Shame about madden as i too would love to see what he has to offer. Yeah that kind of attitude is poison to a team and herbie doesnt strike me that way. He will want to advance his...

I might be wrong but the the QRL site says he was born in februrary 1993. That makes him 30. It a good age for an experienced fill in that can get the job done. I reckon at that age he might have learnt a thing or two (even if it is "what not to do")

I think ahern there gives ezra some wisdom to lean on. Probably not going to get that with 2 young halves starting and a equally young fullback and hooker. Im sure madden will get a shot. Just have to be patient. I suspect there is some man-management basically saying ezra needs to keep...

Sounds a little like a swipe at the "Dolphins" trying to be the everywhere team.

Jock madden provably gets a half.

Remember the opposition he is playing. Hes got good footy smarts and deserves another shot with what he has shown but id prefer to see up against one of our other trisl opponents before we tslk about who makes the cut. Pretty impressive this game but his lack of pace may be shown out more with...

He might want to pass some advice to cobbo on that point. :/

I dont care about fancy flicks but more ability to draw and pass is a must for any centre for me. Farnsworth is a great centre in defence and good runner which is fine but developing his ability to use oates would see him able to write his own pay cheque and be one of our greats. I think he is...

Of all the up and coming coaches we've got, i suspect the one playing halfback for us may prove the most promising.

People forget how good at reading games taylor was. The reason he often played out wide was his ability to set up tries as much as score them. He had a fone grubber and a good pass, just poor self-dicipline

Possibly "aging star" given how old he is, but might not be a bad pickup if he provides a little leadership and mentoring for the younger blokes.

Yeah, this is my chief problem with this debacle. No what you think about your boss you dont run him down in public. This goes the whole way through the organisation. There should be no chatter of ikin and walters, no talk of the board and no criticising by players in public (either the coach...

And whatever else that got him dropped from the warriors, the preseason drugs fiasco, and everyrhing else he has swept under the rug. If it was just that, fair enough, but its not. We need this club to hold everyone to a higher standard or expect our under 20s to see where the bar is set for...

You have a point but at some stage the club has to raise the expectations of behavour of its top 30 players. I can cut some slack for a first time offender but how often have we had the same names in the media time and again. I think in this case unless theres footage or witnesses, it will...

Maybe it means hernie gets first crack at fullback. I know walsh has potential but he needs to be made to understand that these off-field distractions are not going to be tolerated. He may still be in the box seat but someone needs to put this within a football career perspective for him. The...

Well i was feeling my age but you just put me back into the "young wipper snipper" category. I appreciate it. Now im off to complain about arthritis and the state of modern music

What i have noticed with dummy halves in general is they all deteriate their the longer they go in a season without a break. Billys passing and game in general looked weak a couple of weeks ago but i bet he has a blinder tonight. Ive seen when the screws get put questioning a hookers form and...
