Round 21 - Broncos vs Sea Eagles - Pre-Match Discussion

[Battler]

Lowrie is such a waste of a spot.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Slowest wing pairing ever. Plus Lowrie is a dud but he is the type Griffin and even Bennett love.

 

[Foordy]

so who was it that called for Reed to go on the wing...

that team must make nearly everyone happy ... although i expect people to whinge

 

[ningnangnong]

Like that side.

 

[mitch222]

Yeah I'm happy with that side. If Kennedy can push his way over Lowrie it will make me more happy but I reckon we will ambush Manly here.

 

[Foordy]

It is close to the strongest team we can field.

i would have made 2 changes.

Kahu to retain his place on the wing.

and Kennedy/Hala/Molo/Wallace on to the bench for Lowrie.

with Bennett coming back next year, expect to see either Stagg or Lowrie in the side every week (possibly both) he loves those type of players

 

[Bucking Beads]

I'd much prefer Kahu over Reed. I thought Kahu showed plenty. For mine Reed just doesn't deserve to be in the team and is keeping more talented players out. Lowrie is a spud but we all knew he would be in the side.

 

[Porthoz]

Yeah, I'd have Kahu over Reed and Kennedy over Lowrie, but otherwise, this is a team I can get behind.

 

[broncos4life]

FFS can we stop turning every thread into a 'Bennett will name stagg every week' 'Bennett sucks' thread.

We get it Foordy, you don't want Bennett back.

As for the team pretty happy with it tbh. Would have preferred kahu over Reed but it is better than reed on the bench. Would really like it if Kennedy came in for lowrie but that's unlikely

 

[Unbreakable]

Very happy that Copley has retained his centre spot, but yeah, Reed isn't the best winger we have available, Kahu or even Maranta would've been a better choice.

And Lowrie.. yeah.. no more please.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Anthony Griffin x Jack Reed x Todd Lowrie: An infuriating love triangle.

and we all know you do want him back... but bringing him back means getting used to his selections. and players like Reed, Stagg and Lowrie are exactly they type of players that make Bennett coached teams every week, regardless of form. (although if it was Bennett naming players like Reed, Stagg and Lowrie, it would obviously be a good move)

Not the thread for this... move on!

Lol you have no idea what Bennett is going to do.

I hope those 3 are kicked out the door by Bennett come next season.....pipe dream i know. lol

Im actually happy with this team selection compared to other weeks. Im very happy for Copley to remain centre, and because Reed HAS to get picked by Griff everyweek, im glad he is on the wing and not anywhere else.
Im glad Vidot is back, he better be switched on.

I would have preferred Kennedy over Lowrie, but its not to be....but i would prefer Lowrie over Stagg! :laugh:

 

[Rabbir]

So who got 100% in the list your ideal team sweepstakes.

 

[jarro65]

Pretty good side .... i'm actually glad reed is on the wing also .... he might have a blinder there.
