Team List Tuesdays ... Should be a ripper.

[Port Eagle]

I was at the game and I felt Woods played pretty well.

Note: I was on the alcoholic slushies.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Whats that definition of insanity?

Well last year it was whatever Des did. This year us quickly heading to whatever seibold does. Oh the irony.

 

[Brooke]

Spud said on NRL tonight that Josh Shue is good to go and he has every faith in him.

 

[Brooke]

Spud also said Shu has been staying off social media.

 

[Woodsie]

Can't think of one change I would make .... except possibly ....

 

[Woodsie]

This place will go off delux if there aren't any ....

 

[Eagle 1]

Can't think of one change I would make .... except possibly ....

It's a case of who's available not who's in form Woodsie, no Jake, Sipley, Ahiloi there and Kelma. Hoping Jake returns early and Sammy boy finally gets the nod for a forward spot.

 

[mutley]

there has to be changes otherwise seibold is rewarding mediocrity, croker, parker , aloli , tulagi all should be dropped on recent week performances

 

[Woodsie]

OK I'll start ...

Kelma will be out with a broken cheek bone ...
The Shu will be back fit and firing ... Lean and mean ... much to the despair of the local KFC
Jake should be back ..
The Pastor should be out ...

@eagleron did Sammy Fainu play reggies ?

I think Flanagan is more hard nosed than Seibold. If he was coach, it's likely heads would have rolled already. Unfortunately, coaches can become blind to lateral thinking possibilities. If something isn't done soon, the season will be lost....

There is a lot to be said for a coch showing faith in players .. and being loyal ... but the good ones know when to "fold 'em" ....

I don't think Seibold has gone to far .. yet ... but this week would have been enough for mine .... Kelma and the pastor being injured, and Jake and the Shu likely being back probably saved him from making the hard decisions ..

Would like to see Sykes get a run if it's allowed.

 

[Dion Johnson]

The below is what I would look at if Seibold, somehow he has to try and revive Tom as even now people who don’t watch manly as close are seeing where Tom is at.

Some investment in young Sam who could be the 13 the team needs next season.

1. Koula
2. Saab
3. Tommy Turtle
4. Burbo
5. Garrick
6. Schuster
7. DCE
8. Tent
9. Lawton
10. Jake
11. Guaca
12. Sammy F
13. Bully
14. Gordon
15. Keppie
16. Sipley
17. Condon
18. Humphries

 

[Woodsie]

For giggles my team would be

Tom
Garrick
Parker
Koula
Saab
The lean mean fighting machine .. THE SHU
DCE
Paseka
Croker
Keppie
Haumole
Burbo
Jake

Lawton (or Gordon can tan go)
Bully More
Woods
Fainu

Agreed. Those injuries will at least force some changes to be made. But I have to say Pastor Oshay looked well and truly cooked before he got injured. He was clearly not running freely and struggling to move laterally. Shoulder aside, I suspect his ever-present leg injury still needs some attention.

 

[Woodsie]

Would like to see Sykes get a run if it's allowed.

So would I ... but I'm not dropping Parker or Koula for him at this stage ... he will get his chance with injury sooner or later ...

Fainu

Yeah, I quite like that team in the circumstances. Agree to elevating Burbo to starting second row. I think he earned it after yesterday's stint, and he is easily the best option from those currently available. I'd also be happy to see Fainu given a bench spot. That would encourage me looking to the future. Hopefully, he doesn't have to come on and fill in some backline position because of injury.

The slight variation would be to move Croker to lock, Jake back into prop rotation (Woods dropped), Lawton to hooker with Gordon to rotate that position from bench. More risk admittedly. We would lose some experience and be gambling on some significant shifts in key positions, but hey...

Most coaches are steered toward survival. A 6 week losing streak unsettles most

both seibs and flanno are close to the last chance saloon if if ended poorly, esp seibold. Rocking the boat and smashing the team mould is most affective in the off season rather than mid but an unlikely move from a new coach that joined the squad a bit later than hoped

the squad needs a couple of sacrifices to adjust attitude but replacements are thin and the best choice for a new coach was rainbow and lollipops . Soon it wont be

a few more losses and it could get nasty as players are slacking off and seibs will wear the brunt, for the same limp rrrrrs footy that has been ingrained into our team over the last 3 coaches minimum

5. Garrick
6. Schuster
7. DCE
