    Green VS Hodko

    I think he will be an awesome asset in terms of his character and temperament. As others have said he is a top bloke, cool, and doesn't get flustered. Kicking game is A1. His composure is exactly what DCE needs beside him, allow DCE to be a bit headless and X-Factorish, and Hodko steers the...

    NSW Origin team [Game 1, 2018] - General discussion

    yeh to be honest I could believe this team with Fittler. He is a bit left of centre and could completely change the team and leave very few from prior years.

    Cam Smith's "multiple threads- only one declared"

    I hope Tallis comes out and slams him. When Killer didn't want to play origin, Tallis said he had 'no right' to not play. So at what point are you allowed to not play?

    Where does Turbo Rate in Today??

    As much as Gus irks me with his comments, I did think on Sunday he nailed it. Tom is carrying the weight of the world at the moment. Now to me that shows that at least he cares, and (like Jake) is getting annoyed with these poor performances and losses. And as such he is at times looking like...

    Practical Suggestions to Improve

    Point 4 is exactly the issue we have with this team (as compared to the Lyon/Stewarts team of 5 years ago). We dwell on the negative, whereas 5 years ago we crack it and use the negative. How many times did we win ground with our defence? We'd get a bad call, drop a ball, and in the next set the...

    Dumb

    That is 100% spot on. In the golden era things went wrong and Killer, Skivvy, Gifty, Watmough......and 5 others would lift.....make it right. Stop the flow. We don't have that. We are too inclined to sulk for the next 5mins.

    Boooo!

    I posted on another thread that I hate to see our team booed, and I am typically super positive about things. Yesterday booing was not only justified it was probably not enough. In the last 10 years since I've had Fox I've missed 1 game due to being on a flight overseas. Yesterday whilst I...

    MVP: Most Valuable player for [Round 6: Sea Eagles v Tigers 2018]

    I am stereotypically positive when it comes to days like yesterday. I hate hearing when our team gets booed off at half time.....completely justified. What was dished up yesterday (at home) was not NRL standard.

    Warriors - Top 4 in 2018

    To set themselves up with early season wins is a massive bonus. Typically they can have a good run through Origin, where they have limited players involved, and get some wins. So I could definitely see them being a Top 4 threat.

    Parra did A 40 Minute Warm Up In 39° Heat Before Getting Flogged 54-0

    Yesterday up here in the Hunter Valley my son had a soccer game at midday (about 33 to 34 degrees) - he's 12. We took a decision to sit in the sheds. Have a light stretch, and basically as the game started walk out onto the field to play. We didn't win, but we also didn't wilt terribly in the...

    Direct Power game!!

    The thing for me was the players in motion. You could see we constantly had people moving, hard to defend movement.

    Fulton vs Slater - Fox League Now & Then Tonight

    To be fair I think Slater is probably a little better than Bobby (only just), but then Bobby is 70 years old.

    [Resurrected] Season 2018 your predictions

    We seem to be no-ones darlings this year.....I like that! Typically when unfancied we seem to perform well. The big question is obviously around 5/8. We don't need Crocker (or whoever) to be anything he isn't. We just need some steadiness and helping out DCE with kick options. The other key...

    Hey Trent , Give the young Guns a Go !!!

    I like where our team is heading in terms of pace. Tom T, Walker, Tom Wright, Kelly. All have a bit of pace. Something we've lacked in recent years since Snake aged and had his injuries. Defence we can work on, but these guys all seem like genuine footy players, and one thing sport has always...

    everyone writing us off

    I always prefer these years when we are written off, as typically we seem to over achieve in those years. The loss of Blake Green, whilst a loss, is being built up as though we have lost say an Andrew Johns from Newcastle. The reality is he was steady, and if Hastings, Cullen or whoever can step...

    K Hunt

    That was my biggest issue with him when he got done before. Don't get me wrong, not great to be taking these substances, but the way he rolled over on everyone......pretty ordinary.

    Reasons WHY Manly improve 2018

    This might sound odd, but the salary cap 'scandal' has the potential to be our biggest asset leading into the new season. Trent needs to really utilise this as a great 'us v them' moment. Bunker down, create the siege mentality, and make sure all the players know that everyone wants us to...

    Hayne to Eels

    I'm happy Hayne has gone to the Eels. They have been travelling along very well and to me this is a lose lose situation for them. Now a lot of people on here think Hayne is overrated. I think in Origin/one-offs/Grand Finals etc he is one of the best players around. He can produce unlike so many...

    Glenn Stewart/Jarryd Hayne

    Yup that's a favorite, plus it also means 'give me another 3 years'. Everything is designed around him being in this role (or higher) for as long as he pleases with as little accountability as possible. His deflection from topics, results, accountabilities are second to none.
