Pre-Game Bulldogs v Manly [Round 16, 2021]

[Ron E. Gibbs]

He should have been binned but the game was almost over

He did get two weeks for it though.

Looks like Jake won’t be back this week or next..

@mrchrisnico:Told Jake Trbojevic (glute) WON’T play against Dogs. Likely return for @SeaEagles in round 18

We would have lost him for Raiders anyway due to Origin assuming he was selected for game 3?

shame. Rest up Jake. You’ve earnt it.

 

[Mataiforever]

Shame re Jake.

Only Trbojevic I would be playing this game would be Ben.
Look how stacked this side is even without Jake & Tom:
1 Garrick
2 Saab
3 Parker
4 Harper
5 Suli
6 Foran
7 Cherry-Evans
8 Paseka
9 Croker
16 Keppie
11 Olakau'atu
12 Lawton
13 Schuster (Lawton defend at 13, Schu attack at 13)

10 Taupau
14 Walker
15 B.Trbojevic / Sironen
17 Sipley

... Surely this side puts 30 on the Dogs anyways?

Jeez it's a pretty sad reflection on the state of Barrett's Bulldogs when a Manly side missing almost $2m worth of players in the Trobjevic bros still looks better on paper...

It's what happens when you think garden furniture is an important part of coaching

Almost all the active threads on the Kennel at the moment are about recruitment for next year rather than this week's match.

Second correction: Klemmer played for the Knights as well. Doesn't hide the fact we were awful of course, but he was there to welcome Burbo to first grade with a shoulder to the head.

We were awful that day, but not hiding the fact that we were 13 against 14 all day, that extra player Drugcastle had that day made a lot of difference.

A bit too optimistic imo, but NRL.com has Jake and Schuster back vs Dogs.

Round 16 predicted team lists: Changes at Warriors, Broncos; Cleary doubt

With the NRL Telstra Premiership on a one-week hiatus for a representative weekend, NRL.com has taken a look at how all 16 teams may line up when the competition resumes next week.

I had a chat to Josh Schuster down at the academy of sport after they finished training last Wednesday and he said he’ll definitely be back against the dogs and when I asked him if he’ll be playing in the back row he responded saying nah mate probably in the halves. Still a bit confused about that because you’d think DCE would be fine to back up from origin since the dogs game is 6 days after.

I think the way Des will have Shu play with both Foz and DCE in the team is like an extra half

DCE plays both sides of the field while Foz and Shu play a side, he wears 12 but hes actually playing as a ball player in attack and defending as a second rower.

I posted athread a feww weeks ago where i think that Des is basically playing touch foot in attack and old school league in defense and our players are buying into this structure,

Poor Home Town Gerry isn't going to know who to favour without a crowd in attendance.

I hope Tom plays against the dogs. Otherwise we might not see him play for us till round 19 against tigers. Missing three straight games for us is not ideal. Especially if we want him winning dally m.

Has this been confirmed by my good friend the "NRL" "Physio"?

Shuster and Jake both out still. At least this year we have some good depth.

 

[Mataiforever]

How is Schuster still out... what is it 3 weeks post the initial time set to return? What are they doing at HQ!...

 

[Simonmyers11]

Looks like the bulldogs players have been stood down?

 

[Scorpio]

What's going on with Josh? Our team still looks strong but I hope he is back soon
