Round 24: KNIGHTS vs TITANS

[Bayside Titan]

Klemer looks to be out via suspension by the looks. Also missing one of the Saf Brothers as well. But as others said. We need to win both games now.

Every game now is now a knockout

Exciting really our finals have begun

[gotitans101_]

I wonder if Mo will be back?

[RavShamrock]

I think Peachy may be our be option for the 6 at this stage and yes Sexton at the 7 would suit this best…in fact Peachy should see it as an opportunity to just maybe yes just maybe put his hand up for that vacant 6 (Peachy might go like a cracker who knows).
Also I doubt Hurricane will leave Fogs out of the side so get him on the bench so he’s got some options.

If you didn't already notice (unlikely) the 6 position has driven me crazy all season and I feel Hurricane actually put Taylor’s interests in front of the teams/clubs as it was evident Taylor just wasn’t up to it but Hurricane continued to persevere (has taken a bit of the gloss off Hurricane for me)…a big mistake in my eyes but we are still a chance to improve and go a bit further in the comp.

Looks like Taylor gets a fine rather than suspension for the knee. McIntyre got a fine too, was that for the no contact to the head later in the game?

[RavShamrock]

Well f@ck me dead I was getting a bit excited

[gotitans101_]

Both of these bottom 8 teams giving it a good hard crack tonight. The Warriors will be tough to beat in a couple weeks time.

[5 Year Contract]

No suspension for Taylor so expect to see him named again this week. You know what they say about the definition of madness?

Madness would be dropping him and then awkwrdly having to re-pick him because the next best alternative proved to be even worse

Which unfortunatley could definitely happen

I'm sorry Ravs but this is ludicrious

[JunctionBlock]

Surely we can let Ash know that he can venture to both sides of the field when we are in possession?

I’ll beg to differ here as IMO his performances are detrimental to the team and seem to be on the decline if thats even possible.
I was nearly going to add in my original post that maybe it’s written in Taylors contract that, “I must play first grade when I choose to”.
Sorry mate but I doubt that any of the other NRL coaches would be playing Taylor if they were at the helm.

Couldn’t agree more why is it we are the only club in the NRL that our halves never pass to each other and a stuck on one side it’s like someone has drawn an imaginary line down middle and they can’t cross, have a look at all the top teams and count how many times the half’s pass to each other imagine Reynolds and Walker or Cleary and Jerome playing only one side of the field that would be ludicrous to even think that

Not really disagreeing with you Ravs but other coaches may play Taylor if they had the same rubbish options we have. We have had a few halves combos this season and I'd argue none have really gone any better than the other. It has been a race to the bottom. We just have rubbish to pick from, which is why I am confused by our apparent lack of recruitment. But I've been down that path before.

It's funny you say that as it seems we operate that way. I said the same to my kids the other night when we watched the Manly game, just how often DCE and Foran passed to each other.

[Hail Sezer]

I reckon Sexton did a fair bit of crossing over to the left when he was in, and it worked pretty well. Provided some good variation.

Ash I cannot recall crossing over at all, and Fogarty not nearly enough
