Before this year i would agree, but he has been told to roam the field a bit more and the try from the grubber last week shows it could be working. He is looking to popup on the other side of the field etc now, so it seems he may be looking to make things happen now.
I said the same thing to a mate who supports the Titans last week. He's almost their only attacking weapon and he doesn't get the ball enough. I read the coach has told him to roam and effectively play as a fullback in attack at times, and u can see that worked with his try off the grubber last...
Gotta ask, why hopoate? He has been below ordinary since his return. He seems to be riding off a few good games he played when filling in for Stewart at manly, but since then has been very ordinary. Has lost a LOT of pace too
This isnt a thread for what team we think will happen.... just the team we would like to see. I know there is no chance that team will be picked, but its the team i would pick!
We have the QLD thread, so why not a NSW one. If you were in charge of picking the NSW side (and you wanted them to win.. coz otherwise i would just pick gidley 17 times), who would you pick, not who you think the selectors will pick
1. Moylan - i dont like comparing players to others, but i...
I certainly dont consider hodges a certainty and I think he should be overlooked altogether just because hes a liability.
JT's form is nothing to be concerned about. Did you just see him take down the storm? He hasnt been the cowboys' problem this year, thats for sure, and i dont think Scott is...
Got a heap of the earlier broncos jerseys from back when they were not the newer material.
My main collection is really the qld jerseys. Would be up around the 10 - 13 in number i think. The last few years i have added a heap of the training jerseys as they have had some fantastic designs such as
Thought it would be cool to have a thread where you post the QLD team you would personally like to see this year, not the one you think will be picked.
My ideal team this year would be
1. Inglis - has shown this is his best position, and slater is out of form. Inglis' kick returns are too good...
Interesting definition of a "lie" i must admit. Hes named there, he plays there (even if it was for 24 or 31 mins in round 2 and 3) and in their most recent win he played there the entire game.
That aside, the team looks better with him (or matautia) there then they did with boyd. The team...
Hes still making errors, but the fact he wasnt used there last year when boyd was horribly out of form was a big mistake imo. he is best for them when he is fb. The team plays much better with him at the back
Gotta say, the knights seem to be really thriving post bennett. Only undefeated team so far. Seems Stone is getting far more out of a few players that bennett couldnt.
Uate is absolutely on fire this year. He got progressively worse under bennett, to the point of being dropped.
Snowden is...
I both agree, yet disagree, with your post. In general, Bennett is definitely using the bench better, however, he still took Parker off for small intervals off about 5 mins yesterday which I completely do not understand. Why take him off at all in the first place, and if you MUST take him off...
I'm happy to give him a year, but I feel like by round 18 - 20 it will be relatively evident of how successful (or not) the move was.
a big part of what I hate about the switch is I used to LOVE watching the raiders. I would sit down and wonder "how is Milford going to tear these suckers apart"...
A genuine question for anyone interested. I'm hearing a lot of "give milf more time before we judge" and I totally understand that point of view.
but how long and what attributes will you judge him on? Broncos winning isn't necessarily a fair indication, as we have won 75% of our games without...
