Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 2968123, member: 8814"] Really dissapointed in this team. Thought this was a final chance to roll the dice and spark a late season surge (as unlikely as it is). We may have a slightly higher percentage chance to win the game (still a very low chance though) but win or lose this wont spark our season. If we were playing well but losing, or players were putting in but it just wasnt happening, or if the 2 games we lost were not must win games for us then I’d understand maybe bennett would give them another chance but those games we had plenty to play for and the players put in absolutely no effort. Even if there are limited options for replacements something had to be tried out. “Dont die with the music in you” indeed. Im a bennett fan and dont think he should go out this way, and i may be reading too much into these poor selections, but this team seems to me like a bit of a “ive got your back players if you have my back against paul white and co.” type selection. I hope not, but it seems that way. I would have went: 1. Isaako 2. Pearson/Boyd/kahu (wing or nothing) 3. Boyd/Opacic 4. Roberts 5. Oates 6. Milford 7. Nikorima/Dargan/Murphy (only not dargan if he has signed for another club already) 8. Thaiday - 20 mins only, last chance 9. Mccullough 10. Mcguire 11. Glenn 12. TPJ 13. Ofa 14. Nikorima/Turpin/Dargan 15. Lodge (best prop by a long way but we need him off the bench to carry us in the middle of the game) 16. Fifita 17. Sims The reason for the 2-3 options is because i dont see them train or know how much effort they are putting in at training, and in those cases i would choose between those players on that basis purely. Its time players showed they wanted the jersey and bennett should make those border line decisions based purely on that. I dont think nikorima has done as badly as what people say on here but I do think all his best assets can be just as well used from a bench hooker role and macca needs a rocket/pressure to improve his effort lately. Boyd has to go from fb, his defensive efforts/alertness has dropped massively. Not all of these chamges had to be made but at least a few would have been nice to show an effort in trying something different. I really like staggs as a player btw, but FFS, why is he in the 17 if he is playing ZERO FUCKING MINUTES?! [/QUOTE]
