[Mitch06]

I think we will see Inglis at CTR this round...Cody Walker certainly isn't a winger, is he? They will probably swap between positions.

 

[Big Pete]

5. Cody Walker

Maguire has lost it.

7. Josh McCrone

He'll probably win because of this.

Hutchinson needs to get out of the Gong before Mary ruins his career.

12. Jake Marketo 14. Will Matthews 15. Dunamis Lui 16. Siliva Havili

Surely they can do better than this?

9. Dene Halatau

For what purpose? Just play Ballin there and bring Cherrington off the bench.

I hope the Knights beat them, Taylor gets the sack and they give somebody like Brennan, Payten or Woolf a shot.

2. Jonathan Wright 3. Blake Ayshford 4. Matthew Allwood 5. David Fusitua

Horrible backline. If Canberra concede more than three tries they should just give up on this season.

13. Luke Bateman

No Fensom?

Not that I disagree with his omission. Bateman looks like the new and improved model.

3. Jamie Lyon

Swap him and Walker around already, Baz.

14. Blake Leary 15. Josh Starling 16. Brenton Lawrence 17. Siosaia Vave

No Addin? What did he do wrong (other than hit a lady?).

Speaking of, how is Liam Knight allowed to play NSW Cup already?

 

[Bucking Beads]

What's the go with McCrone? Does he have photos of someone. Surely the Dragons have a young half worth giving a game to.

 

[Fozz]

Guess Maguire is locked into "GI at 5/8th is our savour" talk so he'll be named at 6 for the rest of the season despite the fact that they are struggling with outside backs at the moment.

 

[Foordy]

5. Cody Walker
6 Greg Inglis


That'll do me ...

Madge names a 5/8 not only on the wing, but a guy who played really well at 5/8 earlier in the season.

he also names a fullback/center not only at 5/8 but a guy who played really well when he moved back to center for Australia ...

surely the guy is taking the piss

As [MENTION=8534]Mitch06[/MENTION] said, that isn't going to happen.

GI will play centre, Goodwin wing and Walker five-eighth.

It's just confusing to the selection in the first place. Who does he think he's fooling? It's like an SVRL coaching tactic, trying to make him more versatile for whatever reason. The only other possible explanation is if he plays Walker as a fullback with Johnston shifting to the wing.

 

[ChewThePhatt]

No Fensom?

Fensom has a shoulder injury. Back in roun 12.

 

[Unbreakable]

Roosters have dropped Jackson Hastings to U20's team, Ryan Matterson will start at Five-Eighth.

 

[Harry Sack]

Massive blow to the Prickle Sacks there

 

[Fozz]

Dragons actually look a bit dangerous for once. Souths are helping with heaps of errors though.

 

[ivanhungryjak]

Dugan certainly can pick up an injury. In doubt for Origin?

 

[Sproj]

There is a lot of us penalised dodgy stuff going on out there.

 

[tommy]

There is a lot of us penalised dodgy stuff going on out there.

Yeah I reckon Souths got lucky with alot of calls tonight. Dragons a bit hard done by imo.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Awwww **** me....The injury to Dugan has increased Roberts chances of playing for the Blues.

 

[Harry Sack]

I reckon Dugan grounded that ball personally. Vossy summed it up well I thought, if the roles are reversed and Dugan is attempting to score, they'd say he grounded it.

 

[Big Pete]

That's the type of win that makes people hate South Sydney.

7 pocket theory football. Lord knows it was more effective than their absymal attempts to throw the ball around (sans GI), but a lot of points felt undeserved. Especially the Paul Carter try. Ding Ding Ding the bunker strikes again. In a situation like that, just call the goal line drop-out and play on.

The sad thing is, one of these teams is going to find itself in the eight and stink the finals up.

 

[Super Freak]

I really don't see how the bunker could get that one wrong..

It's embarrassing that they got that wrong.

These are meant to be former players and refs that have years of training, and they still manage to make such a rubbish decision.

It baffles me.

The bunker isn't going to change a damn thing until Tony Archer or the NRL does a massive cleanout of the imbeciles in it.
