I agree there coxy, i think it is a great move by Ivan giving hoffman more time at fullback and playing two experienced players in the halves. K. Hunt has plenty of good football in him and we need to still have a play at this years premiership.
additionally there is no reason why we can go...
coxy i just meant as more a confidence thing, michaels hasnt always been as bad as he has been of late. and i agree that we should never pay 700k for any player.
I love the idea of thurston playing for us, letting hunt go and playing a team like this would be a good chance for 2010 and 2011,
1.Hoffman
2. Copley
3. Michaels (he should be pretty confident defending with JT)
4. Hodges
5. Falaou
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Kenny
9. McCullough
10. Clinton
11...
i thought it was a really great idea to have all those injured players around the team tonight, i know it wasnt far for them to go but it would have meant a lot to those younger players. it was so good to see them play for pride in the second half.
if i was picking i would go with this side with one eye on the future and the other adding some youthfull enthusasim to push us up the ladder.
1. Hoffman - our number one with k moving on
2. Michaels - he has some speed and a decent fend at times
3. QLD Cup Centre - someone who has a rep for...
hodges and winterstein should be on the right side together so hodges can move to the wing close to the line to defend the kicks, michaels to the other wing and bring in a good defensive centre beside him, i dont know enough about the feeder teams to say who that should be, when izzy comes back...
fair enough, but did they in this case? isnt that what the rule makers keep saying, its ok for players to go out and have a drink but make sure they dont get themselves into situations that cause issues and bad publicity. did langer lockyer, thiaday and hodges get rolling drunk and cause a...
what is wrong with sport in this country now, i own my own business, if a few of my employees got together outside work over a few beers and discussed how they can improve sales, i would be over the moon, even more so that i didnt initiate it!
i thought for sure k would have started a 6 in the second half, but he moved there when it was 32-6 i think, way too late, everything was of the desperate levels from that point on.
I like the idea if that, he would definately have a tough stance on a lot of areas, but i dont blame cullen solely for the loss of so many quality players.
i think we need to look to players like Williams who have been playing in the qld cup for years hoping for a chance at playing for the broncos. these guys will play fro pride and hopefully know how to defend as a team. blend them with our best young players and you can start to attempt to...
