I can't recall him being terrible at all. The third quarter we were carved up in defence because our pressure dropped across the ground. Our defenders are very reliant on our mids creating dirty entries and we just didn't do that in the 3rd. Definitely needs another run.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
Thought Young was solid tbh.
Daniel for Williams
Martin for Sweet
No other changes at this stage, but Laith for McNeil could be the other one if Laith is right.

I’ve just realised that with the Thug Toby Greene as acting captain, our Bont will have to do the coin toss with this unpleasant individual. :(
We will need to be switched on. Young Lewis must stay in. Surely he needs to be played for an extended period. If we were able to keep Ryan Gardner as a work in progress Lewy needs the same opportunity.

Will Toby be able to keep it to a handshake or will he lash out with an eye gouge or a hair pull?

Can we get Luke Dalhaus to do the toss?

Maybe Bont could don full protective gear and a HAZMAT suit.

I would love it if he rocked up to the coin toss with full Horace Grant-esque goggles on:

All this talk of Toby is making me angry again and how much I despise that so called club.

Do we think it might be a good time to get them? Any possible complacency will be mitigated by the rivalry.

Let’s hope the players feel the same.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
If there’s one team I wanna beat into oblivion it’s them. This is why I think we need the bigger bodies. Would love to see Jong and West in, but I just don’t see the MC dropping McNeil and Scott.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
Obvious changes are Daniel for Williams and Martin for Sweet.
If Vandermeer is fit i prefer him to McNeill, who is ok but i don't think contributes enough yet. West if Vandermeer isn't fit.
Scott is doing enough to hold his spot imo and we don't need to make more than 3 changes, as much as i would like to see Khamis.
Not too worried about GWS talls, Keath and Young are enough to play proper key defence, Crozier is like Williams in that he is ok playing a bit taller and Wood to take Greene.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
Is it fair to say we are currently just about 'all in' on English as a forward? I thought it was strange we used Young there

To not even use him as a relief ruck is a big departure from our previous strategy. I for one am very glad we seem to have as little interest in English's sub par ruckwork as possible.
Re: Always Right Match Committee - Round 6 Vs Giants 2021
In: Liam Picken, Clay Smith, Danny Southern, Rick Kennedy, Super MacPherson, Tony Liberatore, Barry Hall, Mark West, Steve Kretiuk
Out: Bont, Treloar, Bazlenka, Dunks, Macrae, Hunter, JJ, Dale, Lipinski (all managed)
