Can't see us losing, I've watched both eagles games, and just can't see the Eagles taking it to us. Even if we have to travel.
 
Here we go again. White will be forced to try and ruck even though he has no hope against Naitanui or Cox, instead of leaving him up forward where he belongs.

Pyke should have been a no brainer this week, not pleased.
 
Was thinking the exact same thing
Yes but it's McVeigh's milestone game and according to most on this board he can't do anything right so he'll probably stuff up the milestone game curse as well and we'll win by 8 goals.

Most likely candidate for sub would have to be either everitt, rohan or jetta, dont think a fersh bird would really add to our outside game if he is the sub

True about Bird but another theory could be the last term when the teams are tiring the game could revert to more inside than outside work. Than a fresher inside midfielder could be the advantage to run in from the sub.

yeah but it just seems like a more risky approach espescially at subi, where leg speed is important. it would also be going agaisnt the tide as most of the sub so far have been outside runners,but it seem that horse like to do things differently
 
If you wanted to see Bevan get knocked out

Im a huge Waters fan, but our boys can hold their own dont worry about Bevan, you have some serious spuds getting a game and some very soft players that wanna hope they dont get knocked out themselves.
 
Oh Yeah, congrats to McVeigh on 150, hoping for a big one from our fearless leader...:thumbsu:

Surprised Mummy to do it alone, but a few are suggesting he is looking tired but that if true is worrying as we only played 2 games.. He does have a huge tank for a big guy, dunno but it maybe even bigger than Cox according to those that say he is almost in the 'elite' category(beep test or woteva they call it), Nic Nat isnt all that (i rhymed), we'll see how we line up, Go Bloods!
 
Your in for a shock if you think Cox doesnt have elite endurance or NicNat is a pushover in the ruck.

nah Im not suggesting that, but dont underestimate Mummy, and NicNat isnt a pushover, but nothing that our resting ruck cant handle, the advantage isnt as huge as alot suggest, without Le Cras down forward the resting ruck down there's impact wont be as great.... and youre a pack of spuds..
 
and fwiw, you all know Im a Pyke fan and he can run all day but White wasnt that bad in the ruck against the bombers, held his own against Ryder who kept running in and jumping karate style, should have been reported the sly prick..
