Settle down, he's not Tom Carter

Since triple j still play songs with explicit lyrics, I am occasionally required to switch to something else. One instance recently the missus switched to MMM where geyer and johns were talking about concussions - not sure if anyone heard it it but I found it fascinating. What happens in league...

the difference between horne and hynes' situations is that there are more wingers/fullbacks than there are 13s.

I get the impression the bulls are not as potent with fdp. Fortunately for them he's only out against easier teams. It's the stormers and sharks that are their big matches, but they probably need to take all 4 to make it

Haha no, both are less than happy

Cycle can take my spot if I can't prove fitness. Still walking like a penguin following a testicular lobotomy last week

why does Ripia cut out Oconner in second and third phase play? Surely hes the most dangerous man on the park with ball in hand? Is there a plan that he is likely to be over marked and there is space or gaps outside him?

I think he HAS to be given the first start - subject to him being fit to play, he needs to get up to speed as soon as possible and he wont do that from the bench

I was worried at the ease the lions found good meters going 2 phashes left then one phase all the way back to the right to find lazy forwards on the wing. Douglas was guilty of it twice

Timani was a late scratching, I think I read knee? Not sure on palu. There was an article about the aru asking he be left at home to recover. Anyone know if he ended up going to SA?

Yeah, things need to fall into place as we need to take this one. Big games from mowen Dennis Alcock and mumm, and a BIG improvement from Douglas - still getting caught ruck watching last night. If we can rattle them early we may have a chance they will fall apart

Is there a reason ripia cuts out oconner so often?

I know, I figured that while they may add 1-2 points if they come up, they wouldn't drastically change the outcomes, other than maybe between 5/6 and 3/4.

So based on the above (thanks tanga) here is the points I expect each team to take from their remaining games. I'm not going to try and justify picks (too much typing) and of course all sorts of factors can change predictions and results, like injury, weather, etc Reds: 4-5-5-5 total 72(!)...

Force 3: Sharpe 2: Wykes 1: McCalman Brum 3: McCabe 2: gits 1: rocky

It was good to see the backline execute some moves. The second try especially showed what can be achieved by executing a simple play correctly. But it all seamed to go out of their heads A few times this year I've remarked that the tahs come out for the second half looking deflated. I wonder...

I am also some way off match fitness...

Quite happy with my gamble on Alcock this week. Beale as cap was also a good move. Had the SBW disaster not occurred I'd have been sitting pretty

Force should have had this. Blown try, missed shots at goal, the late penalty for holding on etc

Kingston. But 'snot gonna happen. Mantra will now be "don't lose"
