I jumped over to the One Eyed Eel Forum to see their reaction regarding Sanders debut. As a result I want to thank the GH Community and the Admin team for running such a great forum.

Why even have a coach then, is always my answer to that. Is he just there to fill up the water bottles? Come on Nickman, that’s not my argument. The coach bears some responsibility for both good performances and poor performances. But not all responsibility. Is Jordan Rapana a good player because o...

Re: Coaching issues

I also don't think attributing 'good' attack years (points scored) to Ricky's good coaching is entirely objective either. Looks how we scored most of those points - was it structured attack based on a targetted game plan to exploit opposition weaknesses, or lucky crash-ball plays coupled with sheer...

I don't think it's personal. FWIW I'd be playing Woolford over Levi. I really think it is personal. Woolford as shown in the last 2 years he offers more offensively and defensively than Levi does, yet Ricky picks Levi over him regardless. I think it's entirely personal. And as I've said previously,...

The only reason I can think of to justify Starling's selection is experience. Aside from Levi he has more experience than Woolford and Puru. With such an inexperienced backline, he's probably looking for more experience on the field. Really? You don't think it's because the coach just doesn't like ...

Re: Hooker for 2025 and future years

I think Starling has more versatility to his game than Woolford. At least the coaches appear to think that way. Starling can fill in at middle, can sub in the halves in a pinch, and is quick from dummy half. Shame is, he's not particularly good at any of them. I think this role should go to Puru.

Levi showed again why he is a journeyman. For a player with his experience he just makes unnecessary mistakes. The injury to Fog is interesting. Let's see how that goes. His kicking game was pivotal.
