Disagree. He could do a bit of a reshuffle.

Question with the Val to right thing ... Is Flano anticipating having to play Holmes in a different position this year (Fullback/Wing) and to prepare for that went with Suli (left) and Fale (right) as the result?

Can someone please explain to an old fart how this 6 man bench actually works?
So we still have 14 - 17 and now 18/19. So as pointed out if we lose a back can 18/19 jump above 14- 17? And if so would 1 of the original 14 - 17 automatically miss out?

you pick your 4 interchange players from the 6 during the run of the game … if foul play or HIAs take a player out you can activate a 5th

I assumed that you have basically 6 reserves, you can choose 4 of them to replace/interchange others

My mate whose Dad actually played for Canterbury Bankstown back in the day, Mal Clift, reckons the Dogs boys have been living it up in Vegas with social media posts galore. No expense has been spared by the club and their sponsors.
Still I believe that they will be running on with a couple of players not 100% and that is in my opinion fraught with danger and good for us, especially in round 1.
Time will tell

Thank you sir much appreciated

And although surprised that is all you can ask any player to do. You set achievable goals and targets per player then the team as a whole.
Now if some fail to meet those then you get jumped. Perhaps this is what has happened to LPT. ?
My friend, I can smell an ambush coming

Barring injuries, I can’t see Blake Lawrie or David Fale getting any minutes off the bench. Kyle will slot in at dummy half when Cook comes off, and LKT will cover at 5/8.

Me too, sometimes too much of the good life can affect your attitude on game day

Thinking along those lines , time will tell if we have any idea

I don't think they are that good that it'll be a big upset unless that CS was the norm. If so, Flanno will and should get sacked before Origin period. Can't have that shite being dished up in a coaches 3rd year In charge.

As long as we go in with the right attitude, the rest will look after itself. As I said before we are not there for a holiday. There is already enough shit going around without us putting in an embarrassing display.

Yes agreed Justa. The players need to put in 100% and not "business as usual". They need to focus and get the job done effectively and with conviction. Whomever is in charge of making sure that they do not muck up has to be on his toes and keep them under control.
Remembering in 2004 when the Bulldogs were involved in a major off-field scandal when several players were accused of sexual assault during a night out in Coffs Harbour. I'm sure that that won't happen again, but you never know.

I hope we have come a long way from that Dave, the penalties that the NRL would impose for sexual misconduct from any team waving the NRL banner in Vegas would be horrendous. I'm sure it has been reiterated to the players in a big way.

i reckon blocka will be held back, maybe until the 60th min to see how cookie is travelling then decide whether lkt or blocka gets onto the field. we might also be chasing points so could roll with lkt.
