Pre-Season

[Swordfish]

With Robati & Hass on leave for God knows how long, I reckon we will be running low on our middle forwards. Kobe is another one with prolonged wait on the sidelines. We absolutely must trade carefully with our middle forwards during & post game.
No silly stuff from them during games (Flegler especially) that warrants stint on the sidelines & they should be given extra day for recovery if the need be post each game.

With rumored moving of Tesi, we could look to promote some of our upcoming middle forwards( I don’t know if there’re are any) to top 30 OR we could look to the market for any viable options.
On a different note, declining Palasia’s early release request seemingly becoming a vital decision for mine.

I hope Kev considers all aspects & plan astutely with the aid of his support staff.
No single incident should derail the squad’s attention to play consistently & collectively each game we play to get “W”.

Meanwhile, Milf has never looked fitter (note Twitter is currently down for some):

Heads up: Patty and Herbie will be back at training tomorrow.

Gee they’re moving slow considering it’s only a 1.5km. Milf leading might say more about the rest of the team than it does about Milf

Looks like some fullback play for Herbie in the last photo

I was going to say the same thing. If Milford is leading the run, it tells heaps about the rest of the crew. Oh well, I want them screwed anyway.

The stock standard "never been fitter" but I watch him run there and just the physique he has, doesn't look too different to when he was shitting the bed here

There were like…5 guys in that race. Unless that is the dolphins top 30 so far?

Spot any more boners?

Well Milford is a dick.

Turns out he's running with veteran forwards:

The tweet refers to it being the world cup members... so maybe it's their first day back (similar to Patty, Herbie, etc.) and they're doing some fitness testing

9, 24, 27 and 33 mins or thereabouts, shows why our spine might have a bit of a highlight reel next season.

I actually dont think we have a truly arrogant player on our books with a bit of an Aura about him. Somebody like a League version of Eric Cantona.

Yep we need a guy who will combat sledgers ,with flying double kicks into the front row of spectators . LOL

 

[Big Del]

Problem is, they didnt sack Haas or Kotoni for their situations. Can they justify sacking TC?

I keep hearing about bad behaviour from Staggs .
I heard he got ejected from a night spot for unwanted sexual attention . I also heard the porn clip was uploaded by the woman in the clip .

Doesn`t seem like a sackable offence to me ? What has happened other than those incidents ?

 

[Big Del]

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 1st graders and try and match them (and im not talking about training).

A bit a Charlie is par for the course for 20 sumpins these days .
Like smoking weed for previous generations . The penalty reflects the seriousness of the crime .

 

[turkeysnow]

Thinking of our starting side this season, do we all agree this is probably what it is at?



1. Walsh
2. Oates
3. Staggs
4. Farnsworth
5. Cobbo
6. Mam
7. Arey
8. Flegler
9. Walters (50/30 share)
10. Haas
11. Capwell
12. Riki
13. Carrigan

14. Paix
15. Jensen
16. Willison
17. Palasia (signed with Titans 2024)


having lost James and Kennedy, Hetherington is out for a while with a Bicep tear, TC has been stood down and Palasia has signed with the Titans for 2024 does Willison get decent game time? How is he going in preseason training?

 

[Swordfish]

We’ve been worrying about our 9 & 14’s for a while rightfully but given what has transpired towards the end of December, we’ll be short of middle forwards.
To your question about Willison, 1910 mentioned that he busted both his shoulders and is recovering. May not be ready to take the field until mid season.

So, we’ll be running short of middle forwards. Our discipline in the middle is going to play a major role from the get go.
