I'd be over the moon if that side ran out on Monday. Doubt it, though.
 
we can only hope! i think rogers on the bench is a great idea but get him on earlier than what was done against the roosters. maybe i should email brian the team lol
 
I wouldn't be prepared to give paterson another go if i was naming this weeks team, only if we get desperate for the rest of the year. I know he isn't well at the moment but since his comeback to first grade it is obvious there are still some issues there, to the point where he is more of a liability than anything. I sympathise with his situation but at the moment he is doing more harm than good. Im happy for him to play local league for the rest of the year until he has his head in the right place to deal with first grade. He is still missing that hunger which made him play well last year. Also if wes is our best option then there are serious problems, he is useless. This isn't the time of year to be experimenting with the line-up. i.e kurt at halfback, shannon mcdonnel on the wing, they both failed, pick players in their prefered positions and if that means leaving shannon out of the team then so be it.

Dont recognise the names? THats cause its the U/14's team of a Maitland JRL club!!!
Simply because they stand a better chance against the storm!!!!!!!
Sad thing is, it is 100% true that they have more chance of beating the storm than a Brian Smith lead Newcastle NRL First Grade team this week!

WTH?

So much wrong with that!!!

Cooper at centre - possible. Uate, na still another week in lower grade fro him.

Dureau at 5/8th and Mullen at halfback. Swap them around. Paterson and Rogers at prop? They are second rowers? Naiqama in the back row - that has shown it doesn't work. Cross at second row - even if he is fit, his a prop.

McDonnell on the bench? No real reason for it. And no Fa'aoso?
 
Unfortunately it has become too late and we are in too desperate a situation to be able to drop players back to the local league for a couple of weeks to find form and confidence...
 
has anyone seen any of the boys training or even just out and about lately? are they flat? have they been getting a few days off to get their minds back on the job?

That team didn't have much thought in it, did it?
