Our only hope in this game is if Hornes back and if he is id go with Horne/Heremaia. Backs the same but forwards need changing. Drop Watts and Westerman completely and bring in Pitts and Whiting. Id actually drop Lynch for Bowden too but Gentle hasnt got the balls so expect to see the same team with someone like Johnson getting dropped even though he was far better than Lynch on monday

What makes you think Gentle hasnt got the Balls to drop them ? |

Who said he is? And there is no DJ, so surely you wouldn't move another player out of position?
And I disagree about his tackling. |

Go watch the last two games and youll see numerous missed tackles from Miller. You cant carry someone just because they MIGHT be able to create something. Miller may be a good player in the future but hammering him in a losing side is not gonna help his developement at FC is it though lots seem to of forgotten that |

He missed tackles, yes, but also made some decent ones. Ben Crooks has made the most missed tackles in the side, should we drop him? And the statement about carrying someone because the MIGHT create something is ridiculous, he's our half back, that's his job. He has created tries in his for us with kicks, passes and breaking the line. Dropping him would do the opposite of positive development, not only to his game awareness with the team but also to his confidence. |

So late me get this right you thing the development of a player we tried at great length to come over here to play for us at scrum half is best served sitting in the stands?
Add into this that there will be no Holdsworth or Horne on Sunday who do you want playing in the halves? |

I would bring Bowden in but not for Lynch. Try asking Kirk Yeaman if he thinks Gentle "hasn't got the balls" to drop players. |

I fail to see how dropping him because the rest of the team is playing poorly will.
Go watch the last two games and you'll see numerous missed tackles by Ben Crooks, but it would be foolish to even consider dropping him. Miller needs, and deserves, more than two games. |

Didn't read far enough to see this before posting, agree completely. |

Gotta be hasn't it?

Miller is not here to defend , he is an attack orientated player .If the pack did their job correctly he would be able to play behind them . Beaten pack means your half backs are not allowed to play the game they should be . Remember Matt Head his defence was SH!!T but he could organise the side and did

If we drop everyone who missed tackles in the last 2 games we won't be able to field a side.
Tackling performance from the pack has been way worse than the backs. |

If Horne not fit Azza at 6, I'd drop Westerman, Lynch and I'd leave out Galea but Gentle will probably play him instead of Pitts.

Yeah, as classy as Crooks is in attack, he's got loads to learn in defence. He won't learn it sitting in the stands though. |

Not sure what team gentle will go with but id have green, Bowden, Pitts & Johnson in the 17. Watts and lynch need a big kick up the , Bowden deserves a chance and green will give us more go forward than either of those two. Johnson and Pitts get in on merit.

Not sure Lynch needs a kick up the booty, doesn't strike me as the type to have attitude issues. I do think he needs help with the workload and maybe a bit of a rest, though. |

Agree that Green & Bowden should be given a chance in this game. Bowden is a big lad with a bit of presence about him.

I know he's not popular but I don't see how Galea can be dropped when he was one of our best players on Monday.
I also don't why Yeaman isn't in some people's sides?
