Topic starter  

From the start of the year we knew our forward pack lacked punch.

But for the most part of the year I thought our guests pack had pinched above its weight,  defending well and even making line breaks.

However then the club sold mikaele without replacing him,  which exposed his shallow or pack is. Then we sold luch without replacing him.  Now twal may be out for the season.

To assess the season, if listen the All Run Metres of our games below. 

Interestingly 4 times our opposition has run more than 1800m - three of those have been in the last 3 games. Which coincide exactly when mikae left ave twal has effectively missed 2 of those games 

 

R1 - 1493 (storm 1287)
R2 - 1286 (knights 1769)
R3 - 1685 (warriors 1479)
R4 - 1479 (Titans 1604)
R5 - 1210 (Sharks 1916)
R6 - 1464 (Eels 1705)
R7 - 1702 (Souths 1641)
R8 - 1989 (dragons 1528)
R9 - 1486 (Manly 1778)
R10 - 1380 (cowboys 1731)
R11 - 1564 (Bulldogs 1256)
R12 - 1322- (Rabbitohs 2029)*
R13 - 1507 (Manly 1937)
R14 - 1404 (Bulldogs 2071)*

Damn. Sick in bed all yesterday so missed that. Lucky we have Sheens here. He can always find a prop in any squad. Step on down the 2022 version of Danny Galea or Bronson Harrison

Get well soon!

We're now down three forwards (plus Blore), surely we have to find some new faces?

@frullens it's crazy roster management - just terrible. All the hierarchy have played a part in it.

Hope your feeling better and no you weren't hallucinating ...we got smashed by the Dogs ......

 

If we don't grab someone before the window ends we will look like fools (again ) by letting go 2 forwards when our pack underperforms weekly 

 

The Board do realize this isn't AFL and we don't get draft picks for finishing last

Exactly right, down 4 forwards, two by self inflicted wounds.....but dont worry our KOE pack has been killing it.........right?

We can add Stef and Peach to that list. At this rate we may not have have enough players  for team list Tuesday.
