Ken seemed confident in the presser that Ryder can still play, that being said though - Frampton in for Ryder. And SPP in for ideally Boak but realistically Dixon.


yep put ryder on ice

We should get a couple of games into Frampton, even if Ryder plays. We are going to need him next year and now the season's done we can have a proper look before deciding if he is/isn't going to make it. We can't afford another "yeah he'll play next year" then "nah he's not ready" year. Don't think i'd change much else, perhaps have a look at Snelling? Watch Neade come in for Dixon.

Haven't heard anything about Dan - would be surprised if he plays, but if not, Trengove?

100% Frampton should play, only thing that we don’t know is whether he plays ruck to replace Ryder or FF to replace Dixon.

Do we honestly think Ken is going to admit defeat on this one now, after p*****g away our season with his stubbornness to date?

What it should be:
Ins: Frampton, SPP, Hombsch, Bonner
Outs: Ryder, Dixon, Houston (inj), S. Gray (dropped to trade table, seriously should never play for us again).

What will happen: Ken will either run Ryder into breaking down badly enough to miss large parts of the off-season or go with the ever useless Westhoff as main ruck.
 
We need another Dixon bad..will marshall fill out like Dixon? I did not see Marshall as a Dixon type we need another monolith bear in the square type. Just find one this summer or we are done. We need 2 Ryder’s and 2 dixons

We won’t be making the decision to play Frampton. He doesn’t have a choice.

We have 0 key foward available and even if Marshall was fit Frampton would be a better replacment for Dixon being bigger and stronger.

Nobody other than Frampton is able to come in and play Dixon’s role. Only thing that stops Frampton playing FF is Ryder going out injured.

Plays FF to replace DIXON.

If Ryder comes up, then he is back up Ruck.

I am in the keep Ryder in mothballs camp.

Frampton to play the last two games no matter what.

No there is no chance Marshall will ever become Dixon, he may be a very good key foward, but he will never be like Charlie Dixon.
 
If polec was dropped for his efforts on stringer a couple of years back, Ebert should be dropped for his effort on the flank that allowed them to break the play open.

Frampton - Ryder
Hombsch - Dixon (swing Howard forward)
SPP - Ebert

Hopefully Houston is ok!

I like your idea of howard forward

We can’t, if Ryder is fit he needs to play. Had we won today and last week we maybe could have rested him. But we are very likley to miss out on finals we can not put Ryder on ice, if fit he must play.

But Frampton must play yes, replace Dixon at FF and goes into the ruck if Ruder doesn’t come up.
