Just hope we compete if you forget about results the year is so much easier trust me lol

Hopefully we aren’t playing any of Ladhams or Hamling types waste of time
I don't mind Ladhams.

He's been better recently.

Seemed decent enough in the ressies.

I'd rather he played than Dos.

Play a proper two ruck structure.

No thanks it doesn’t work especially in the damn wet and Buller can ruck anyway.
 
Do I read anything into Rowy being named on the bench?

Could the caesar88 desire for a Rowy sub be possible?
"Desire" is probably not the right word. If I have a "desire", it would be for the pre-2025 Rowy to make a welcome return. I think we'd be a helluva lot better this year for it.

But as it stands all we are getting from him lately is some clutch tackles, so I don't think we'd notice his absence if he wasn't there. But I think those tackles are the reasons I can't see him being out of the 22 at any point. And maybe that's fair enough.

You gotta go all in until it is mathematically impossible.

If the team was a long way behind in the third quarter of a game, I would never want them to give up and save energy for the next week - I would want them to fight to the bitter end.

Exactly the same with a season.


Never. Give. Up.


Ever.

Damn wet?

19 degrees and sunny

If you think the ground will play like a dry track have news for you. Can we not play VFL players at best? Though maybe if we do some on here can wake up and realise we are purely and simply playing for pride from now on and should be building for next season. There’s no point coming 10th

My lawn is dry.
Why won't the SCG be?
With it's multi million dollar drainage.

Maybe I'm at odds with this "playing for pride" BS.
However I'd want every player in the 22 to give their all. To the very last moment.

Anything else is loser talk.

It’s played like a wet track for a month, it’s hardly going to be that dry.

Prepare for next year and use the last games to get a form of a gameplan that’s sustainable and can we stop playing blokes that should be delisted at seasons end.

Nah it hasn't "played like a wet track" at all .

The Paddington end is shifting under players feet.
The rest of the ground is fine.

The issue with the Paddington end is the grass and root structure is basically dead.

I still feel like Cleary has too much of what we lack to not be in this team.

Like sorry but we are nowhere near good enough as a team to be turning our noses up at a guy with slick hands and superb tackling & closing speed.
He is another loss away from just being chucked on ball for the rest of the season in the 1s side

He needs more yelling
 
Let's see what Cox has to say at his presser tomorrow.

I think Florent will be the other out for Bice (sub?), and he, Hamling and Ladhams will be the emergencies, with Ladhams in if they have to make a late change for say Amartey or Mclean.
