QWERTY, THIS IS NOT THE TEAM OF THE WEEK THREAD .

He's been lazy and tentative so far, showing only glimpses of how damaging he can potentially be. If there is one player who needs a NRC more than any other it's CFS.

It's the right time for Cliff. Well done son, a good innings here in Australia

I'll be there yelling my head off as always but in my head I'll be repeatedly reciting the following in my head Holmes...Simmons...Quade...Kerevi...JOC (James O'Connor)...Holmes....Simmons...Quade...Kerevi...JOC (James O'Connor)

Yeah completely forgot Big Dog and Beale. They would slide in. Lilo and someone else would drop out, probably Arnold. Higgers is probably second choice 6 and in my opinion should be second or first choice 8.

Nah I'm backing the following 1. Slipper 2. Moore 3. Kepu 4. Simmons 5. Carter 6. Fardy 7. Pocock 8. Higgers 9. Phipps (for now) 10. Quade 11. Speight 12. To'omua 13. TK 14. JOC (James O'Connor) 15. Folau 16. TPN 17. Sio 18. Alexander (for now) 19. Horwill 20. Hooper 21. Genia 22. Foley 23. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) 24...

I said it at the time and I'll repeat. Losing Harris AND Lucas was a mistake (with Harris probably having been better given the current predicament). My understanding is they were never really a shot of retaining Mike but Lucas really wanted to stay. Without knowing the salary cap...

A very new looking Uni side. Parker, Banks and Porter are really the only ones with a lot of Prems experience in the backs. The forwards are all young, fast and skilful but you would think that a some of the Premier grade packs that they will face would see an opportunity to bash them up front...

Even with Kerevi injured, it's like a punch in my guts everytime I see 12. Fainga'a 13. Tapuai IT'S BETTER THE OTHER WAY AROUND RICHARD YOU MORON!

I made the comment in the QPR thread that he certainly looks the part, his scrummaging was strong and his runs were ok though he was very heavily marked. We had one glimpse of his power when he absolutely skittled his opposite number on one run down the touch line. His brother was impressive...

BR you've lost your melon mate. Slipper, Simmons, Holmes, Hooper, probably Pocock, Big Dog etc. will all still be here

I was at the game. Uni was a little under strength but Brothers were still very good. Thor scrummaged well and his carries were effective despite being heavily marked. We had one glimpse of his power when he rag dolled his opposite number. His brother was mighty impressive too. Good skills...

Fuckin yikes, it wasn't a vintage performance by any stretch but take it easy with the vitriol fellas. I though Genia did exactly what he should have done which was try to take the reigns in attack and not leave it to JOC (James O'Connor) (or Frisby). He executed better in the first half than the second for...

Unsure when and if Benton worked for the Reds. I'm pretty certain Marsh was boss with Ollie kind of the 2nd in charge with more of a focus on the rehab side of things, working one on one with the injured boys in consultation with the physios etc. That arrangement seemed to work well. It was a...

Sorry BigDog, but it's approximately 16 000 times more complex than that. Your suggestion is akin to claiming that tinkering on an old junker and tuning a Ferrari are similarly difficult. Injury prevention is the primary goal. Keep your best players on the park every game and you will win...

Ollie has fucked off? Ok. The only logical solution is for whoever his deputy was to step up for the rest of the year while we look to bring in someone more experienced post-world cup

Do you reckon they'll swap JOC (James O'Connor) into the back 3 defensively to add some danger and zip to counter attacking chances?

It's not a bad side especially considering all the injuries we have

Can't wait to have Holmes, Kev, Simmons and Quade all starting

JOC (James O'Connor) and FTA are the big ones. That's a significant change to the experience and direction in the backs just with two blokes.
