Unbelievable that Brandy found time to talk given that Dylan Edwards' edamame sized ballsack lives in his mouth

**** you've been on fire lately.

I’ve got a great idea let’s run a bloke shit scared of the pressure from edge defenders through the middle at the big boppers.

Walsh is not that style of fullback. He is a small guy whose skills come to light in space. Stick him in the middle for the off chance an opportunity might come, where if it doesn’t he is predominantly ineffective with this positioning or put him on an edge where he should be. Look the edge admittedly is not working for him but it’s cause he isn’t having space created for him, there is a real lack of shape or intent for him to be at the back of fast and direct shape and he is shit scared of being hit. Can’t imagine he is gonna love roaming and running up the guts.

Paps is huge? Slater? a Monster? These guys tactically go through the middle of the park - yes, where the big boppers are. If you don't notice, Reece charges at forwards multiple times per game right now..... All fullbacks do.

His issue isn't running at forwards.... He rarely drops the ball on first or second carries out of our end... into those same forwards.

What I'm suggesting, is to have him sniffing around where Paix and Billy are looking for the loose ball to find a gap, just like Paps and Slater before him do/did.

We really need to talk about the starting forwards
Kobe can’t continue to start at lock
He offers absolutely nothing in the first 25 minutes
Put Patty at 13 with Jensen at 8 for the first bit of the game

I was at the game so couldn't see the telecast, but from what I could see Kobe was the only bloke out there cutting guys in half in defence.

I think we need that out of our starters, because Patty and Payne aren't hitting guys in defence at the moment, and Jensen sure as shit won't be either.

Maybe he wasn't making 10m a hit up, but he was at least trying to stop the yardage game when they ran anywhere near him.

I thought Patty's first sting was pretty ineffective tonight though... he was getting cut down pretty easily and I thought it was interesting that Madge decided to take him off and leave Payne on, which is the reverse to what's happened the first 2 games.

All criticism aside, I hope the group and the coaches get around Reece after that along with last week.

The difference this week is that he was putting the effort in but he still couldn't get it right.

We need a lot of fundamental training still. I don't care about being entertainers - winning is all that should matter in that regard

I noticed after the try straight after halftime, Bhunt went across to Walsh who was berating himself.

Arthars was walking away back to the ingoal, but it was good to see Bhunt go across, because Walsh was super solid in the first half under a lot of kicking pressure.

Kinda hoping Walsh gets suspended, he needs time off to work out what he is doing, Cobbo can do the job till then.

Reece will be fine. He's had some shit moments, but it's all about ironing them out. He'll get there.

Happy with the two points. It's March, we don't have to be perfect yet.

Payne is a bad ass.
