Have an excellent chance but still worried about the speed of their outside backs compared to ours. I guess that's going to be the case every week until a few changes are made.
Don't ask me.
I've got nothing, head scratcher for sure.
Cheers, I thought watching the game he offered us some go forward off the bench on the edges. 5 runs 53m, 23m post contact in the 25 minutes he was on. Perhaps the coach believes he needs more time and fitness through the KOE .
Surely Sele in, M. Molo out is going to be a late change. Until coach gives some of the young guns like Couchman's, Coric, Egan a go, I think this is almost the best pack if Sele is in fact a late addition. JDB is a better lock than prop. But if he can play more minutes by starting off the bench like last week, I'm happy with that. And Lawrie starting off the bench has been my go-to issue for a while. So if Sele is a late inclusion at prop and M. Molo goes back to 18th man, I like this forward pack. Best we've had in a while. Best since that narrow loss to Souths in the preliminary final just before JDB had his issue.
I like Lawrie off the bench that should be his spot from now on. But I don't like JDB at prop and starting in that position. I would have thought a Sele/ F Molo starting combo although it's only Sele 2nd game back but alas he appears to have been dropped. So we have a 4 prop rotation and JDB in my view is not a specialist or starting prop. You just have to trust that the coach knows what he is doing.
Great minds think alike
That's the mystery.
Why would the plan be to pick Sele as a late inclusion? Why not just pick him to start with?
Hmmmmmm At least that explains why he wasn't named in the 17 but still don't understand why he was named as 18th man if he's injured.
Cheers yes he is unfortunately one of those players that are injury prone. Yet we signed him on a 3yr contract, beggars belief to be honest.
Not sure but $1.8m over 3 yrs sounds about right.
Amen to that
