    Gal to get the record for most losses. Woot

    TPJ is a beast, dunno where to play him next year though (provided we keep him). He's been killing it on the edge, but we have Gillett, Su'a, Glenn and Fifita (and possibly Staggs too). Probably has to go back to the middle.

    Staggs is a centre, IMO. TPJ should play lock. Defend in the middle and play both edges in attack.

    Need to fuck Kahu off and play Staggs in the centres.

    Literally no-one does this lol.

    The closest is what Taumololo has been doing the last few weeks -- middle in defence, middle in attack from his own end, wider one side in the opposition 30. TJP is pretty similar in a lot of ways so he should do this too IMO. Needs to work on his ability to sell a pass before the line if he's going to play middle regularly though -- it's way too obvious when he's going to pass other than when he offloads, and this is a problem at lock, particularly when neither of your halves really likes playing first receiver.

    Andrew Fifita does this from pure laziness.

    Haha touche. He doesn't play both edges in the sense that playing both edges and running from one side to the other between plays would really entail though -- he just creeps over to whichever edge is closer when he wants a rest in attack (ie. always) and stays there for an entire set.

    Holy fuck we deserve the spoon
     
  9. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    That's how good he is. He can focus on the right edge, it will be unfair if he combines with Goates too often.

    Really starting to remember why I used to dislike Will Chambers, this year.
     
  11. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    He comes across as a real fuckwit. He was tolerable because he did well for QLD, but that stopped this year.
     
  12. Alec AD Funkotron

    Hunt has been an absolute joke in recent weeks.
     
  13. Paddy P Orr

    Cannot win this without Scott and Taumalolo.
     
  14. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Not with shithouse calls like that either...
     
  15. AVA T Delonge

    Sharks are just fucking around here. Could really backfire since they only lead by 6.
     
  16. Paddy P Orr

    NQ deserve the spoon.
     
  17. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    So many upsets...

    I like how no team can get a clear grip on the minor premiership.
     
  18. Magic AJ Parker

    I think its just reflective of how little it means in our game.

    Apart from 100k and being allowed to wear your home jersey in the grand final there is no distanct advantage to finishing first over 2nd.

    Kind of sad that in one of the most open minor premiership races in recent memory there seems to be more motivation and discussion around teams trying to avoid the wooden spoon.
     
  19. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    There is if it means playing Souths or St George in week 1.
     
  20. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Gotta wonder why it takes Thurston’s last game at home to motivate this side. On paper they should be title contenders.
