I don't think they'll move Lamb. He has been training and playing with Gagai and Sio for 3 months, so why move him?
 
Our pack has matched it with a lot of teams and have been let down by poor execution. Bulldogs is one game.

Sorry mate but u are 100% wrong
We have averaged 300m less per game then the team we played against and our backs have made most of the meters.
Just a fact for u.
 
How do people not understand basic football! For me the workload should be something like 70% forwards 30% backs. They NEED to lay a good platform for halves and backs to do their thing. We have to stop running forwards on 4th and 5th tackles. Its killing us.
 
Mate we're all backwards. The backs take the tough hitups in yardage and barnett gets the ball on the last in the attacking 20 thanks to hodko the superstar.
 
Thats been my point all along Aidos....
If our pack of puppies are being mauled by wolves then no halfs can help us.
Sorry, I was a little slow there. My bad lol

I can definitely point out 2 maybe 3 games where the packs been completely dominated but on a whole our direction and execution in games has cost us the most.
 
I can't agree with this our backs have done a lot of the hit ups this year

When I say match it I don't mean destroy packs. They have held their own and will never beat a Bulldogs outfit if we can't score points when we have the chance.

Mate again... "matched" means being competitive against the opposite team.

Put it this way, we have not made 1500m in any game this yr... last week v the Roosters we made 1499m 757m of that was the back 5.
The roosters made 1860m

I put a post up just the other day showing each game this yr for meters gained vs meters against and we have been 300m behind every week.

We've been competitive in all our games bar one and in a position to win a few of them. I'm saying our execution has let us down also. Big mental defeat if you can't score down the other end.
