I think hethrington needs to go to 2nd row, unless patston can be drafted into the squad breaking nrl rules (we aren't the storm or panthers so I doubt they will).

There's no indication to me at all that hethrington can't do a job there. And it needs to be spelt out to him that it will increase his value in the squad, his days as a middle will be devalued given the emergence of te kura and willison.
As above. No need to edit this comment.
Just send it to Kev and my main man Kobe. @Lockysillegitimatechild speaks truths!
 
Something tells me it's bad idea to have Willison start at backrow, perfectly fine option a bit later into the game when there is a bit more fatigue, but he is a massive unit to be on the edge when everyone is fresh, feels like he would be an easy target.

Sooo... As much as I don't like positional switches in-game, but how about Carrigan defending on the edge (Willison in the middle), then swapping in attack? Patty's ball-playing stays intact, Willison can line up the smaller men in attack, but defensively should be quite tight.
 
Carrigan to S/R, Walters to Lock, Smoothy starting at Hooker. Te Kura on the bench. If it's too small defensively, move one of the smaller guys to 5 man on the right and the prop to where Carrigan usually defends.

Sailor may have to do a stint at Dummy half. But if they work the bench properly, and we get lucky with injuries, we may be able to pull something like that off.
We can not afford to have Carrigan playing second row when Haas is not playing, it's not negotiable.
 
Stuckey has had the most non-event three games.
I’m not saying Stuckey is my choice but it’s not like we are going to get an exemption for a second rower that didn’t attend the pre-season when 2 did. Obviously Patston would be the ideal option if the 2 but Stuckey was getting picked before Patston in all the trials from memory.

Someone send this to kev so he knows the king of the prideland has forbidden carrigan to play on an edge
 
We are going to be back in this exact same position when Carrigan and Haas are both named in the origin teams. Why not try whatever plan we have for then now?
Our back rowers are not injured, yet alteast in Origin period as it stands though.

It's a stupid idea to move Carrigan there while he is able to play, it's weaking our middle massively for a mediocre backrower.
 
Be it injuries or lack of capable enforcements either in the middle or in back row, the only bloke who’s unlucky and getting drained 200% is, Patty.
Agreed that he’s getting paid well and only get to do his job 80min a week but I pity the poor guy. I don’t reckon there’s another middle in the comp that has played almost every minute of 2024 season. I don’t think it’s any different last season as well. Patty went through the same punishment last season too and I simply don’t fathom that.

WE MUST START TO PRESERVE PATTY but it appears a wishful thinking. Its a disgrace.

If there’s something that I do not like about Kev — it’s his over dependence and use of Payne & Patty but mostly, Patty. He’s unintentionally draining out the guy and I hope this doesn’t have any adverse effects on him in the future.

Kev & his coaching staff should do better for mine.

He’s played all bar 9 minutes this season. Crazy.
 
I think Riki will play, but if he doesn't, why not try Willison on the edge? He seems to have some pace to him
 
If Kevvie puts Patty in the backrow with Flegler playing, he's got rocks in his fucking head.

We need Patty in the middle. Hopefully Riki's ankle heals quickly. He seemed confident Tuesday afternoon so he could play.

Yes this bush journalist knows better than all of the performance staff, lifetime coaches and experts at the broncos. Pull your head in you drongo. You have no idea what affect this would or wouldn't be having on patty.
 
Yeah. Let's move Walsh to hb, Tristan to Fb, staggs to prop, Oates to BR, willison to wing and tekura to fb. Only team that makes any sense and kevy is a retard if he doesn't do it.
I love the idea of 2 fullbacks. No one else has thought of it, it could be revolutionary.

Settle down wannabe head coach. You’re kidding yourselves if you don’t reckon Patty is burned by playing every fucking minute every game. After all, he’s a human & sadly not a robot.

Like you said, what do I know hey?
