Is anyone running a tipping comp this year?
The staff are in the process of organizing one. The draw has already been done, just need to sort out a couple more details.
Is anyone running a tipping comp this year?
Thaiday may well start as predicted, but I don't really see the point. If Macca's knee isn't 100%, an extra 20 minutes on the bench isn't going to help.The team named is a bit surprising.
I didn't think Macca would be named to start. That could change, we will see.
The Dragons to retire the number 1 jersey for convicted child sex offender, Graeme Langlands in round 1 against us
Was never convicted. He died before it all went to court.The Dragons to retire the number 1 jersey for convicted child sex offender, Graeme Langlands in round 1 against us
Sorry, he was charged not convicted.Convicted? Alleged wasn’t it?
I'm still finding it odd it appears we will be shifting Kahu to the centers after he played all the trials on the wing. Not that its necessarily a bad move, i just thought he would have played the trials at center.
I like Kahu but worried about his injury history and defence at centre. Also think if goal is to give Oates a shit at second row he should play there early (or in qcup). Did opa fail in trials? Still wondering if worth a crack of Oates at centre but would have needed the full offseason to get his defence right. Gets him closer and with higher pay grade + preps his defence for eventual forward move.
Is Macca going to play 80? Seems a bit much on first few games back wouldn’t mind Thaiday starting at hooker and let’s be honest it’s been his best position in recent years (not saying too much I admit). Lack of bird hamstrings half and hooker backup plan. Still would love to see Bird at hooker “close to the action”.
But let’s wait and see as usual Wayne will have a plan and we will only know around kickoff.
Opa didn’t light the world on fire his ball handling really let him down he played himself out of the jersey.
The whole Oates thing is interesting. Maybe they are happy enough to let him go if he doesn't want to play wing.
He must have resigned himself to not being a forward now. Its a bit disappointing tbh he didn't stick to his guns. If he keeps getting shifted back to the wing he won't ever make the switch
