Round 12 - Sea Eagles vs Broncos - Build Up Thread

[Coxy]

Manly by 30

 

[Jeba]

Geez Hoffman must be a frustrated man re his injury!

 

[Big Pete]

Might be a blessing in disguise.

I'm of the opinion Hook just needs to give Baptiste one shot to be shown that Baptiste can be a weapon off the bench.

Manly by 30

yep im fearful of this.

i just want some commitment this week. some effort. even if we lose. if its a repeat of the panthers game, well i dont know.

 

[Big Pete]

Interesting to note Glenn has been announced as captain.

Tells you where he stands with the club.

 

[noisetheory]

or maybe where others don't [icon_shady

 

[user_nat]

Not sure if Lui deserves a starting spot after his last game.

Hopefully he is the one to go if Parker plays.

Well it's a basically an U20's team and he was the U20's captain, no surprise.

Interesting they've named Parker and Yow Yeh, so those two will backup if everything is alright but the others wont. I hope Baptise gets a run and McCullough gets dropped forever, he can't be any worse.

We are virtually giving away 3 games this year because of this selection policy :(

Well Wallace was Vice captain in the Storm game.

Macca was also considered a future captain.

It's not exactly a surprise, just interesting.

Meat77 what do you think about this?

 

[Meat77]

Huh?

 

[Bucking Beads]

We will win this one

 

[Big Pete]

HOLD THE PRESSES!

Benjoclintjeffry is making his debut for the Under 20's!

 

[Meat77]

OK I get it - did you get sick of fighting with AP Jeb? [icon_lol1.

I read what I said about Glenn being captain in a thread a year ago...honestly my opinion hasn't changed too much. He's established himself in the top 17 now without doubt but let's face it, he's only captain of this team because the first 3 (possibly 4 if you throw Hodges in) choices aren't available.

Good on him - hope he does well - don't see him as a long-term skipper though

I thought Hoffman was meant to be back for Manly. He apparently resumed full training this week.

Wouldn't rule him out as a late inclusion.

 

[vertigo]

Flip a coin, lets just hope the Panthers game was an aberration.

 

[levikade]
