We definitely need a new halves pairing. We need the second half to look more like the first half.

Making the 2nd half look more like the first half is done by changing halves, not fixing bench use?

Good idea BnM. Hypnotise the team at half time and tell them the game is about to start.

I’ve seen enough of Aekein to not want to see any more of him. I am keen to see what else we have in the cupboard though - mix it up Rick. Throw in some fresh blood and see if we can’t unearth a few for 2022.

Looking at the above picture and after a deep critical analysis, I believe it really symbolises our woes.

There's a hat, and there's a net. You need the hat because it covers the top and perimeter of your head, but more importantly, you need it to attach the net to cover your face. The two have to stick together in order to get the job done. Without sticking together, you risk bees all over your face. And that's what's happening to us right now. We've got bees all over our faces attacking us all because the hat and the net didn't stick together.

Judging by Ricky’s presser it was simply bad luck as to why we lost against the knights. So expect the same team, however you might see Captain Croker return as “he brings a steady influence” as quoted by Rick

Trent Barretts game plan-

1. Let the Raiders run riot first 40. Miss tackles, drop the ball, bomb tries.
2. Let Ricky give his half time speech, it’s a beauty.
3. Come out in the 2nd half and watch the Raiders implode.
4. Win game.

I'd say he'd be a year away... only getting a run in reggies as Hoppa and Semi are out. Maybe he's a better prospect than both but he's coming from left field.

I’ve said this now for four weeks straight, but we need to score 32 points to win this with our current absolutely ****-house defence. And judging from our season to date, they need to be scored before halftime.

Do we have 32 first half points in us against the bulldogs?

Dogs will beat us. It will be hot in Brisbane. We lack the conditioning. Cotric 2-3 tries.

Dogs gave us a run last year and were leading at half time, and only lost by 2 the year before.

Even the faithful will be calling for Ricky's head next week.

4 chiefs but I really think sammy will be like everyone back off and just play your position, where does chanrnz fit if this works? Im down for wighton in the centres...defence and catches bombs

As my siblings support dogs, i have watched most bulldog games, they are so boring and predictable, if we lose this ricky has to go

Plus our boys will be delayed at check-in at the airport by ten minutes, so no way they can win.

Just Valemei in for Simo please, if fit

Lui looked good in reserves, give him a call up

Hodgson to start for the first 20

Sutton tries hard, but is no Tapine. Tarps for 13.

(Ok more changes than I thought I wanted..)

The rest of the team, well, we've got 17 guys hurting in there...

Just about sums up the team I think. Only 5 players you can call a lock in the squad at the moment.
