    That is a massive, massive loss.

    Big time. He is getting massive wraps for his game Friday night, I thought he was piss poor. 2 tries completely his fault.
     
  3. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    That's true but he's still extremely valuable to the side.
     
  4. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    I'm not saying he isn't, never will. I'm one of his biggest fans.
     
  5. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Yes, I know.

    lol.

    Such a cute couple

    Take your homoerotic imaginings elsewhere, Magic.

    :lol: Magic.

    Great post.

    Mine and Gemmell's love is nothing compared to his adoration for you, Mr. Read.

    threesome?

    Haha fwiw. They should just roll with...

    11.Glenn
    12.Teo
    13.Gillett

    While Parker is out. Gillett in 13 should help Norman and Wallace as he provides that extra bit of ball playing ability and it allows them to keep Teo and Glenn on their edges where they are much better and Gillett in the middle third where his defence is stronger afaic.

    8. Civo
    10. Hannant/McGuire
    11. Glenn
    12. Thaiday
    13. Gillett

    Get Thaiday out of the front row.
     
  14. Benny BS Read

    I'd keep the front row rotation of Civo, Thaiday, hannant and Mcguire personally but it is a goodpoint.
     
  15. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Gillett cant play middle-third in defence and he's a lot less effective in attack IMO.
     
  16. Alec AD Funkotron

    McGuire, Civo and Hannant are all 60+ min players. But then again so are most of our back rowers. Thaiday must be in the back row IMO, at least early in the match. He really does nothing at prop in the first 30 or so mins. Gillett seems to be being used as another battering ram too, I'd look at giving Glenn less minutes, he doesn't really have to play the whole match, and have Gillett roam more on the edges instead to try his hand at some ball playing and hole running.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Um, what? Since when are these three 60+ minute players?

    Number of 60+ minute games in the last 12 months.

    Civoniceva - 1.
    Hannant - 2.
    McGuire - 3.

    You can make a case for McGuire I suppose but he'll be burnt the fuck out by mid-season if he's asked to play those sort of minutes each week for the next month and a half whilst Parker is out. Hannant is the same. He can do it but over a month or so he'll be warn out especially if he has to play Origin.

    Civoniceva is just ridiculous though. He's never been a 60+ minute player, he turns 36 this year, and there's a good reason why his Origin days may be over - The old boy is weary.

    McGuire could be an option at lock, at least starting there and then move into the front row after his 1st rest.
     
  19. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Apparently his thumb had been fucked within the 1st 5 mins and he played the rest of the game with it.
     
  20. Alec AD Funkotron

    Well, yeah 60 mins is a bit over the top, but we really want them playing as much as possible. They are one of the main keys to our season.
