Flanno is fired for next week (One can hope), and you have been hired as coach. Your first task is to pick the team, current injuries are in place. What is your team?

I'll post mine first, just to be fair.

1. Gordon (Almost tempted to put him in to centre and Gardner in fullback)
2. Ryan
3. Boogs
4. Wright
5. Mills
6. Chad
7. Robbo (Yuck, only option though)
8. Gallen
9. De Gois
10. Fifita
11. Lewy
12. Wade
13. Heighno

14. Peaches
15. Liccha
16. Ross
17. Green/Toops

I am slowly coming around to the idea of Gards on the wing, cause that's how bad our attack has been. Gordon could defend on the wing... Though I kept Mills there, cause I haven't been impressed with J.Wright or any other wingers, give him at least another game to prove himself.

Would love another halves option, but we don't really have one at the moment. As for peaches, self explanatory, adds spark and natural rugby league ability. Everytime I have seen him he oozes talent. Boogs in the centres, cause our centre options are weak, plus he runs lethal lines, put him in between a winger/centre it will lead to confusion or a bust. Wright has been our other best centre, IMO... I'll admit there might be some bias there. Poms is balls. I'd actually cut him.

I'll happily take criticism, as long as it's constructive and rational.

Why did you drop De Gois? Thought he was one of our better players tonight (wasn't hard)?

Haha, wouldn't mind it to tell the honest truth.

Agree on Robbo mate.

De Gois was good but I think Morris has been playing better.

I'd tell Morris however that if he plays poorly it's straight to NSW Cup.

Either way, I agree Lichaa deserves a go.

We also have the advantage of having Politoni playing good, consistent footy down in the NSW Cup ranks just in case two of the three hookers are playing poorly.

The guy can't crack NSW Cup so I doubt he's going to force his way into firsts.

Only coz Finch and Chad are there. With Chad out you saw him move into the side. Plus the main reason I want him there is so Robson can go to hooker

Now i realise im going to get squawked at for gal being benched and yes he is a hard worker but that is a my problem with him . He try's to hard and starts to mess up . I feel if he could sit back for a bit and see the bigger picture it would help us more as a team.

I recall a line break and around 2 repeat sets in attack to go with his good defense. Chad did none of these things, in fact he did little of anything until the last 5 minutes. I'm not saying Robbo was on fire but at least he contributed.

any team that doesn't say:

7. robson
