Will you be at the game?

Nah mate I wish. I learnt this week to never again allow family members who aren't league followers to make dinner reservations because they will make the dumb decision to book it the same night we are playing, fools. I will be out tonight, will tape it and watch it when I get home.

Strict social media ban from 8pm tonight bud.

Has Flano released his final 17 yet? I might have missed it.

*Edit*

Nevermind, found it. Gee I hope Ava smashes it again tonight.

Having a good balanced argument is fine.

But some people have agendas. For some reason or another.

I can cop a good argument when the combatants can see both sides of the argument. But the pig headedness of some that refuse to concede points or agree that they may be wrong in some areas really gets my goat.

It's why I cannot stand politics. Both sides roar to the world that they are right and if the other party says Black, they say White, sometimes just for the sake of it.

So, in this current debate, do I think Val should be moved back to the wing? Personally no, I think it's too soon to say he failed.
But I do agree he is not in tip top form.

It is absolutely laughable the amount of buffoons and ill informed people on social media who think it is their God given right to be judgemental about things.
I'll bet if each person on social media had to say the things they type to a person's face, 99% of them wouldn't even say it.

Something is horribly wrong with our world at the moment.

This argument of him staying at fb should be over, Coach basically put it to bed saying the pressure and responsibility was getting to him which was easy to see hence why moving him to wing, he can only ball play on one side as well he needs alot more time to be better at fb - i just think he is using this rotation thing as an easy way of putting him down.

On the bright side at least Val is on the wing instead of being benched like Barba was in 2015.

Even if Dugan doesn't put the finishing touches on tries he will save a bunch and he will make his usual tackle and line breaks. We can score off the next play. Have faith.

chads been playing since 2011 - surely he is about to hit his straps and become a decent half back

It wouldn't be about Chad. It would be about the development path of young halves in general. From a Sharks PoV I would include Trindall in that.
