Hello can you please fix this so i can use at avatar? Thanks

 

[The better Robbo]

Id swap perrett and sipley.

 

[40 nil]

Souths have three Burgii in their team & are at full strength except for Braidon Burns

A statistic to be changed: Sea Eagles have lost their last 9 games at ANZ

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Feels so good to have a bench of big forwards along with the best young hooker in the game

Great responsibility for AFB and Marty to lay a good platform this week and I think they will love tearing in

Starting with AFB and Marty only to have Keppie come on. If Keppie shows the same intensity he had last Saturday then we won't be losing too much with Marty/AFB coming off.

Agree, think the kid will be up for it but he will be up against another level of players than the Gummies marshmallows.

That statistic tells me we are due for a win

All of these have been without Desus (except against Souths which was only one point in it)! At the start of the 2013 Prelim v Souths highlights reel it said we had won 8 out of our last 10 at ANZ at that time

 

[brad]

Id swap perrett and sipley.

I would as well mate, but I suppose Perrett hasn't been to bad . Here's hoping.

You mean 3 grubs.

[Shoe1]

Id swap perrett and sipley.

Maybe sips is still ginger from the surgery and needs time.

Perrett has been playing every week so has some match fitness

Toff looked fitter than Perrett in body shape
But Perrett has had more minutes on the field
Des will make the call in the next few days between the 2 I reckon

Hello can you please fix this so i can use at avatar? Thanks

This is the correct ratio but it can't be reduced further without losing the clarity

But if someone clicks on it, this full image will display

Just upload it using your profile name up to right / personal details - remember to scroll down to SAVE

Next time be more figurative rather this literal

 

[HappilyManly]

Starting with AFB and Marty only to have Keppie come on. If Keppie shows the same intensity he had last Saturday then we won't be losing too much with Marty/AFB coming off.

Having just watched the replay I can't get my head around how good and involved Keppie was

I saw him in BWSE and said that he looked like he didn't belong but never expected him to fit right in NRL in a finals match against a pack of rep forwards
