I reckon it's because Hook didn't want a little fella who can't defend that well in the line on a night like that so he put Glenn there. It wasn't that bad of an idea IMO.
Will Hodgo and Parker be back? If so then I think we should win. As pointed out earlier, their pack is very thin and although ours is somewhat too, it is still dominating. Our backs are also firing, in particular Reed and Hoffman, so if Hodges is back too that will be a major bonus. Souths...
Either one of those teams is the way to go. Hopefully Macca can keep up the good work and start playing 80 minutes which will make everything a lot easier with the amount of back rowers we have.
I think Lui is still contracted until 2012 or 2013 (correct me if im wrong) so that means he would have to be given permission by the Tigers to speak to other clubs for next year. So it can't be Lui unless what is said in that article isn't all the truth which wouldn't surprise me.
I think...
Might as well get Sims back too while you are at it, Alec. icon_smile
What do people think we should do with our pack when Gillett comes back in a few weeks? Gillett always played on the left, and since getting injured Glenn has moved into his position on the left and has been absolutely...
I disagree Nashy. I thought our halves were great. Only a few things you could pick them up on like those short kicks that they were putting in behind the line when we should have just been nailing it into the corner and keeping Canberra down their half. Their kicking was good too, but those few...
Hodges will probably play next week and I think Gillett has another week to wait. Anyone know if Carlaw will be out?
If we can play like we did in the majority of that game again, with the inclusion of Hannant and Parker to our depleted pack which just dominated one of the biggest in the comp...
One major thing that I think a lot of people should pay attention to is that Macca does sooooo much more defence than Baptise. As well as this, Baptise comes on at points in the game when the opposition forwards are tired. Of course he is going to look so much crisper and nippier than Macca in...
I thought Wallace and Norman played well. I've gotta say though, those field goals from Norman weren't really his fault. He was under immense pressure from a charging raiders defence on both, and on the second shot he received a shocking pass from dummy half which gave the raiders defence a few...
No matter how good Norman or Hunt's development is I think we need to sign another half anyway just to strengthen our depth up a bit. Lui would be alright (no idea how much he would be asking for though, hopefully not much...). I wouldn't mind Moltzen though. He has a bit of utility value...
Yea he would be a good buy, exactly what we need up front. Except the sharkies are apparently paying massive overs for him. Someone could have/probably just pulled this figure from anywhere but I read like 300k+.
