I'd quite like to see Hall play at SO. Either way Tansey HAS to play SH and I hope to god they will be training like mad this week with Tansey learning the calls and the players showing a willingness to listen to him.

He is.. I Smith VR two numpties together

I'd quite like to see Hall play centre, the position he is best in.

agree

If he changes the halfback combo then he's admitting he made a mistake in playing them. I reckon he will keep the same combo just out of his own stubborness. No disrepct to the crusaders but we will come up against teams where we might only get a few chances to score. If longy isn't playing then we are going to struggle. I dont see the point in moving Tansey from fullback, let him settle there rather than moving him about. There must be another Broughy out there who can play a similar role.

If Agar drops the Golden Child, I'll turn up to the game in a Rovers shirt!

You may as well but Horne in the line up cos we all know that he'll be playing

If Agar is going to even resemble a coach, The halfback combo has to change, preferably with Horne out of the 17, Moa has to come in, as does Turner and possibly Calderwood.

My team Agar's team due to stubborness/lack of idea/lack of courage

as I just placed on a different thread ( sorry still got the flu didnt read this thread)
If RH tackling thus far is where he is at this season we most certainly do not want him at FB
Not that i am as experienced as Agar or know anything about Pro RL apart from being a watcher all my life but based upon my knowledge of what we have in the Squad and thus far their performances this season I would go for

FB: Whiting.
Wing: Calderwood
Wing: Turner ( give him some game time to get into things and he is quick)
Centre : Briscoe
Centre : Yeaman
SO: Manu
SH: Tansey
LF: Fitz
SR : Tickle
SR : Burnett
Prop : Radford
Hooker : Berro
Prop : Omeley

Reps
Dowes
Moa
Houghton
Cussack


Yes you will see in my team above that I have placed Manu at SO
Daft?? not really , he has proven this season that he is a 80 minute player now he is fully fit, the lad has an awesome ability to break through defenders and I can visualise the FB and others running off him all day long down the middle, he has speed, strong in defence, great hands, offloads at every opp, good passer ,
Seems like a stand off to me when we need to fill in!! ( always thought this or centre too)
and without doubt offers more than Washy or Horne!!

Lauaki needs a break after last week and now knowing his child is so poorly../.

I can hear the guns cocking already

done it again , sorry meant to put tansey in instead of horne sorry

I reckon the team will be more or less a carbon copy of Sundays team.

Berrigan to step into the position Washy played and Houghton to start. Tickle back in if fit.

I really cannot see Agar changing anything else, hope i am wrong but cannot see it.


PS GU's side was meant to be Tansey instead of Horne (see other thread)
