Next weeks team?

[Rosko]

Yeh mate Arthur is injured atm

Out for probably the season with broken foot.

 

[Rocky]

Yeah Paulo is the biggest disappointment of the year so far for mine

Really? Expectations weren't high on here.

I was expecting at least a First Grader. Talau has made him look like a complete Muppet, even Vaega looks better than he did.

Not being fair to Vaega

Vaega is a fringe first grader, no disrespect intended but I don't think he's ever going to be a regular starting first grade winger.

You may well be right, but right now I don't think it even a contest as to who of the two I would prefer in the team.
Vaega has proved himself to be a capable first grade replacement... Not so Paulo

Yes I agree, that was my point.

Vaega must be a massive risk of leaving. The more obvious change was Talau into the centre and Ray Ray on the wing. I cant imagine he would be happy with Schoupp-dog leap frogging him. While he is a rocks and diamonds player I think he can still be a first grader but most likely not with us.

Paulo - has the physical attributes (very similar to Talau) but this is the 3rd club now where he has failed to make an impact. Back-up at best unfortunately.

This is going to sound really harsh and it isnt intended that way, but Veaga will sign wherever he can get a top 30 contract.

If we offered him one he'll stay. He wont get offered above minimum anywhere.

Yep Ray Ray has too many holes in his game to be anything more than a fringe first grader.

We all love his passion and enthusiasm but I doubt he can be consistent over a season at the highest level.

he is no worse than Horhay and he held his own in firsts for a few seasons

Paulo is in the wrong game - great athlete but the softest player I have seen for many years

Taufua regularly made 200+ metres and hit like a train in defense. Vaega is a similar player but Taufua was better.

 

[Bomb Voyage]

When does the team list get cut? Are we still thinking Humphries is coming in?

 

[Ohgeez]

When does the team list get cut? Are we still thinking Humphries is coming in?

I think it gets cut to 19 at 7:30 tonight

 

[Will on the hill]

Gets cut to 19, 24 hours before kickoff but if Humphreys comes in it'll probably be 1 hour before kickoff. That was the case with Lehi and Simpkin.

I think Ray is definitely a career NSW Cup player/occasional depth option. He could go anywhere in the NRL and end up depth. He is extremely limited by comparison with to the modern athletic winger, of which they are a dime a dozen. He'd could have been a To'o type if he had a bit of extra speed and footwork; unfortunately, he was not gifted with these attributes. He's got a decent (albeit slow) yardage carry and a big jamming tackle; that's it.

Even worse Paulo has 10kgs on Talau,while only being an inch taller.

 

[Once Was Brissie Kid]

Looking for reassurance for Manly vs Knights the club has learnt something from the last Team B game.

So this time around DCE, Jake and Koula are out, but Olakau'atu is in and the hopefully improving Tom T is in as well. Saab left the Cows game early with cramps apparently. Plus it is at Brookie, but that is not 2 points in the bank.

This game really needs Vice Admiral Brooks to finally take command of this footy team.

The game vs Souths offered nothing.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Lol yes it would be good if the Vice Admiral made a few clean breaks etc.
Captain this week...
Brooks, Brown, Turbo, Haumole (if he's available), Croker (if available), Garrick...??????
