Penisini and Ryley Smith suspended are big outs for parra, particularly Penisini in right centre who’s superb defensively

Posing a question and it’ll sound negative but I’m genuinely curious - Let’s say we lose 30-28 and LKT has a blinder + sets up or scores all our tries but Kyle plays a sub par game

What would your opinions be if LKT was dropped the following week instead of Kyle?

I'd be saying time to sack Flanno.

Two things that strike me, that backline is very slow and the bench only has Liddle with any pace but won't be able to play a utility backs role if CT goes down again.

What strikes me is how soon some players are dropped while others can play any number of bad games and be under no pressure. What did Sele do to be dropped? Dropping Nick T isn't surprising but seems like a really negative thing to do. Now Holmes is the fastest player in the team and second would be Couchman? Or Liddle? Maybe Cook?

Yep. The whole team lacks the speed that is needed to win the game. Who has that turn of speed to race away for 70 metres and out sprint the Eels fullback who is lightning fast? Who do we have to stop that Eels fullback if he makes a clean break and darts to the tryline 40 metres out? etc.

Right about now how can anyone not be questioning Flanno as coach? He's getting worse.

Those supposedly closest to our club please tell us bewildered fans why this hate Flanagan has for Sione Finau. The guy was 18th man for the game before the bye, last week same for Ressies but played, now he is back down the pecking order behind three slower, less skilled outside backs. Every grade game I have seen him play he has done a pro job. Top finisher, strong defender, goes inside only if he reckons he can nail his man or is looking for one of his special intercepts, his PCM are up there with the best outside backs playing and he is safe under the bomb. Jeez can he do any better as a First Grade contender.

Was reading SMH this morning. Looks like quite a few coaches are facing the sack. They said Hasler, O'Brian, Payton are as good as gone. Flanno one who if not sacked will go into next season under huge pressure. There is also Brad Arthur out of a job now.

I think any of them will be ok if they are given 3 years but told they won't be kept or sacked according to short term results but the club wants to see a young team getting better with an eye to being a good team by the 3rd year.

Agree
I think Sele is still not right with another long minute game in NSW cup being of benefit?Loko has looked off the pace the last couple of games & probably needs to be managed then there’s Lawrence.
Just maybe Villi has overcome all his injuries & apparently played well last week.
