And that's literally only because Souths are more dysfunctional than us

We are very thin without Papa and Billykiller.

BJ gone fishing, Jack back to right centre, Oldfield to left wing.

Just throwing that one up....

Mounties put 50 on the first place team, so you can't argue those players are out of form. Unfortunately we probably spent the last of our second tier cap to sit Oldfield on the bench for 80.

I'd think Sorensen will get a run and maybe Knight if he is not second tier.

Unless they have priors I don't think either will get a week. I kind of wouldn't mind if they did since it will keep mixing things up with selections.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

I think we should start 5mins early and run some tries in.
Then stay out there during halftime and run some more tries in.

I might even head down for this one, I'll see if the better half wants a night out in Ole Sydney Town.

I actually never thought of Wighton to bench, but it makes sense.

He can cover any backline position and the backrow.

IMO he moves to centre, bench or Mounties. Fullback experiment is over.

Sorry, but Bateman is not first grade standard.

Wighton needs to be moved from fullback. Rapana or Cotric to fullback, Oldfield to fill the wing spot.

Liam Knight to come in for Sia. Why sign him up if we are not going to give him a go?

Maybe Daley's last game? Pretty sure Germ and Toots were suspended and maybe one other.

I think Furner escaped suspension in a 3 man spear tackle .. two were suspended and DF went on to play his last and 200th game for the Raiders. Imo fDF had the most influence on that tackle.

I don't think he will, the team I posted was merely a wish list. Ricky will obviously name the same team, with two other people in place of Rapana and Sia.
