Barrett: 'The boys have prepared really well'

[Woodsie]

As a 2nd rower I think Green would make a good centre/winger.

I would have put Green on the wing and brought Leary back in.

Exactly..........110% how it should have been done

I would imagine that the choice of keeping Gutho or Wiliame came down to economics. Gutho probably freed up more cap space.

 

[Ralphie]

Barrett has to wear it if we lose.

If Barrett was selecting the best side available then I would be more prepared to cut him some slack if we don't win, but with his random dart board selection policy it's 100% on him.

Or maybe Gutho chose to leave because he was promised the fullback position with the Dalai from 2017 and TB told him he was a long way down the fullback list at Manly.

I am not going to name names, but this is 100% absolute fact.

I can definitely believe he would have been at least the 4th choice FB at Manly behind Snake, Tommy and at that stage Peta Hiku.

Even with Hiku gone to Penrith, at best Gutho would have been our NSW Cup FB this year with occasional appearances in first grade, mostly on the wing as an injury replacement I'd imagine.

I know he was a junior rep fullback, but if he wants to play there in first grade he's going to have to learn to catch bombs better than his woeful attempt last week. Other than it was a skinny white guy in a blue and gold uniform, I thought I was watching Jorge Taufua do his jump and get nowhere near it act.

Groan....Gutho left to play fullback FFS

Deadset there are some keyboard heroes out in force.

Blaming Williame for the loss is just stupid. Blame Tafua he made 4 times the errors but the heroes seem to be OK with that.

I've always hated Taufua. He has skills to burn, but never steps in to help Matai's tackle load. Attitude adjustment still in progress

Don't get your feathers in a knot feathered friend . We are not saying Wiliame cost us the game. We are just saying after 12 straight inept NRL performances we believe Wiliame is not a NRL standard player from what we have seen on a consistent basis.

Are you going Isz ? Where will all the Manly faithful be ?

I wish...Monday night is a no go for me

I hope you can get to enjoy the game on fox . I will be at the game. I want to see our first win of the season

 

[Red Pill]

lets hope we can put it on where it counts! Hoping to see our forwards do a job on Monday
