I'm pleased they are practicing their tackling.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I'm pleased they are practicing their tackling.

That should be the only thing they practice this week

What if Manly are hammered at Brookvale? Will you get belted?

Might get Baltered!

 

[Brookie1973]

I'm pleased they are practicing their tackling.

No they’re not. They are practicing their wrestling.

Another risk free team sheet.

 

[Phobia]

This team list better change by Thursday or else Seibs is kidding himself. Sipley has shown nothing outside of Round 1. Navale is right there.

 

[Thewestisbest]

What on earth do we see in Chee Kam. He was rubbish the first time he was with us, was rubbish at the TigPies and the Wabbits. He is a journeyman who can't find a home because he is rubbish, and we take him back..............of course we did......................good grief.

Well, according to some on here there are no young forwards available because we have four players on big contracts. That is why we continue our pursuit of old guys with lots of experience but little leg speed,

 

[Thewestisbest]

Yeah because the attack was electric against the Sharks.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

Seeing the team sheet is depressing - ZERO changes to account for the last few weeks of garbage. I hate it 🙁

The games I've seen Chee Kam play in he was very ordinary. But something does have to change.

We aren't going to get any favours from the Match Officials again this week.

It’s frustrating when I read the name Jazz Tevega selected at nine!!

Seibold is starting to go down the Dessie path on sticking with seasoned players that are not playing well enough.

 

[Jethro]

They will roll over the top of us. Our only chance is home town refereeing.

No chance of that happening. The NRL has shafted us again with who they have picked as the Match Officials.

I’d much prefer we gave a few young blokes a go off the bench instead of dishing up the same crap. We don’t need to change the whole team but some tweaks would be nice.

For me, pick:

• Arthurs (he’s a goer and does the 1%ers, better than the attitude of some others in our squad)
• Navale (has the attributes of a good modern forward, give him some time in first grade)

Drop:

• Sipley (too slow in defence)
• Brown (too slow laterally and doesn’t penetrate in attack)

I’d also start Simpkin (or Croker when he’s back) and play Jazz as a middle forward off the bench… ideally we’d replace Jazz too but I couldn’t find another player worthy. I’d also prefer we replaced Ben T but again, no one better in our squad.

 

[Jethro]

The sides worked hard to rebuild the fortress over the last couple of years, after last week at home and this weekends result, surely we’ll come out at home and show some pride in the jumper.

 

[Eagle 1]

And no Croker, not even in the reserves. Maybe being saved for the Penrith game.

 

[Rafferty]

You’re probably right, just thought I’d try to be positive for a change, what was I thinking……

 

[Jethro]

Potentially this could be

1) a line in the sand to turn things around
2) the end of the road and the start to a very long year.

Toss a coin I guess

Jake Arthur getting a chance to play where the club originally recruited him for would be worth a shot, 30 minutes playing as the link man would be good to see, at least he would go to the line with the ball and attract defenders, Jake T is passing the ball at times 3 meters before the line.
