OMFG it has happened

[HoldenV8]

Perrett gives us a true prop on the bench. While I applaud Barrett for converting Lane to the front row, lets not forget that he and Tanginoa are converted back rowers who have only played one first grade game for us in the front row.

We now have more options on the bench than we did against Newcastle.

Yep Perretts form for half the year last year was a bit patchy but once he found his groove he was very good at the end of the season, hoping we see more of it this season

He was very highly regarded as a younger player and I seem to remember the Roosters being unhappy when he decided to head to the Dogs

Perrett apparently dropping out of the 17 for Winterstein or Gosiewski...

I suspect this may have something to do with Perrett's heat stroke over the off season and with Saturday being a fairly hot day in Sydney. Really feel for the guy and hope he comes back strongly but his health is of most importance.

I think a couple of bench positions, including utility, are likely to be rotated so everyone keeps match fitness by playing reserves at times. Of course the ball is in Hastings court now to force the issue by excelling.


Not according to so called 'experts tips' on fox, I think about 9 out of ten tip Eels.

probably the same 9 out of 10 experts that tipped us bottom 4 last year

You didn't see the trials or last weeks reggies I gather.

Last time I checked there was a distinct difference between reggies and first grade. Im going on last year and he was ****house to put it mildly

Hopefully Gosiewski, I'd like to see him given a run for 20 mins to add some punch when the eels forwards start getting tired.

So you didn't see last weeks FG game and the trials obviously as you failed to answer that part of my post. Your opinion is solely based on how you rated his performances last year.
Yup, just as I said.

So he was named in the 17 pending a weather report.

A night time specialist.

Well our man Perrett had a big game! He adds some good variety to our pack and man did he give them hell! Hope he stays in the side once Lussick comes back 🙂

Perrett showed this round exactly what I had seen in him last year - good go forward and a good offload. No doubt be will have been noticed more after yesterday's game

A handy player to bring on and turn the screws after the starting props have ripped in

Came on at 30 nil..
Hardly had much to play againts.
Played a solid 12 minutes.
Let' see how he backs it up over next few weeks.
Happy to be proved wrong.

Solid 12 mins ?

1 try assist to Jake holding 4 at bay, and then scored one himself of course, and that's only a solid 12 mins?
If that's all I see, its enough to know that he at least is a class above Frank.

And I can't remember the last time Poo Brown dribbled one in goal for Sirro to score either.

Both players are worthy of spots over the Poo and Franky.
