DB was kicking very positional at the start but then put some bombs up that went backwards or sidewards. So I think his kicking was not his best

You were doing so well until I noticed you have dropped McGillvary.

Cas out enthused us from the start - our line speed was rubbish from the off and we paid the price.

Lessons learnt I hope - send out the same 19 and tell 'em to get their s in gear this week.

In defence of Luke O'Donnell I think he will have received a culture shock on Sat night - I can't see him having competed in those conditions much in Queensland. Get him practising with a big bar of soap.

Grix was great and McGillvary finished well - he had plenty to do for that first try and it didn't look like anyone was going to stop him. The rest were pretty poop.

grix was the best player against cas, n you want shut?

Larne Patrick is a now regarded as a prop, Fa'alogo, O'Donnell and Gilmour are all second-rowers. Why should they be in front of him?

Oops, sorry about that. Gillers can stay move in where Cudjoe is, moving Bruno out. If Simpson stays, Cudjoe/Lawrance at Centre, Gillers/Hodgson at wing.

So, I think you are saying if Simpson's fit you would replace Lawrence with Simpson. Unless Simpson is fitter than first thought I don't think we'll see him for a few weeks so 2 to 5 will stay as Cas game.
Anyways, I don't think it's a good idea to call Jermaine 'Gillers' - will cause all kinds of confusion and I don't think I could stand another Lee Gilmour thread.

I would have thought Simpson would be fit enough seen as he's had a full pre season training with South Sydney.

I thought he'd been told he had 3-4 weeks of hard work infront of him before being considered for selection.
Maybe he's fit but needs to learn all the plays, get used to how team mates play etc. Still don't think we will see him for a few weeks.
