Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Teams and Previews

I don't think Seb has been sizzling so far this season. I actually think he has been a bit quiet and tentative. On TLT, it will be fascinating to see what Ricky decides to do because there are actually quite a lot of selection headaches to deal with. Does he bring in/retain Ricky favourites such as...

Re: 2024 Round 2 v Tigers: Game Day

Agree Guler should make way for Horse. But I would not be writing off Whitehead already. It seems like we have indeed had a tough pre-season. Our players seem fitter, stronger. And we are playing a better style which might suit Whitehead. Also - i dont think he will play the full 80 which might also...

It doesn’t matter how we played for 27weeks. It matters how the Knights have played the last 8 weeks (reminds me of us in 2016). Attacking powerhouse. If its dry, they will have 30 on us by halftime. And if we are lucky, put the cue in the rack in 2nd half. Only way it stays close is if there is tor...

Interesting timing to announce Hasler now and sack Holbrook immediately.
Kind of makes you think the Ben Hunt situation is almost a mere formality. Guess we find out next week after he meets the Dragons officials on Monday.
