If Ponga is worth 1 mil he needs to provide more then that.
He was mia besides 1 good run and a lucky kick that Lee made look good.

Not sure where we go atm, dropping a few mite help though.

We really look like a team not trying at times and then when we get some luck the ball goes to ground.
W

Watson cup
Fitz bench
Barnett lucky Guerra is gone or bench
Garvet bench
Levi bench

D Saf to start
Buhrer to start at 9
Jones into the 12 jumper

We need some heart back in the team.

Ponga is the only attacking threat we have. Barnett topped the tackle count and tried all night. Yes he has a mistake in him, but he's the least of our worries. Can't disagree with the rest though. D Saf should start and Jones deserves a crack.

Then where was Ponga during the 10 minutes we played against 12? Didnt even touch the ball.

The manly 7 who is being paid 1 mil killed us for 80 minutes on every big play and controlled the tempo like a million dollar player.
 
I know Jones looks like he's ready for it but I reckon Fermor is the more complete footballer

I'll have to watch the replay and come back to you big fella.
 
We are the worst team of the past 20 years. Its an absolute joke and it just keeps getting worse. No more saying its only round 5 or we are building towards something. This is garbage and this town desereves better than this crap year in year out. I said it last week every single team has finished higher than 7th several times since 2006, that is our best finish. 3 finals in 12 years, stuff it
Been saying the same thing for years mate, apart from the titans (who didnt exist until 2007) we have the worst finals record of any team in the comp, only 3 finals wins since the 01 premiership, utterly embarrassing.

We can't name Fermor till July, which is actually when I think he'll just about be ready to play some time off the bench.
I'd have Jones playing a bit of prop in reserve grade to get him ready for the firstgrade bench.

Ponga was checking to see if he still had a jaw. Got smashed off. Lack of attitude in this current squad. Time to change up the squad. Worked for the doggies.........................

If the backrow is playing like they are right now he can have a starting spot
