Really talented human, but at three different teams he has sat on the outer

he may well be an "independent thinker", coaches don't like those. besides at the Rebels, Crawford, like Vaianu may well have too many attacking skills for TT's limited game plan.

On paper the Reds should win this game with ease by a large margin and start making that -87 point differences smaller if there wanting any chance to make the semi final like super coach thinks.

But I have lost all faith in RG and his ability to coach these guys so I'm only 50% confident that the Reds will win.

Quade to have a blinder and would have liked to see Frisby start over Genia who I feel is the biggest problem in the back Line at the moment. He Need I big kick up the bum.

@Daz, thankyou, although might one be so bold as to suggest one should not contemplate giving up ones's daytime occupation.

Genia hasn't been his best lately but I'm guessing he's feeling the gameplan (or possibly lack of) and I doubt frisby will be any better. We desperately need forwards in motion and options for our playmakers right now.

Nice to see Jordy getting a run this week off the pine, but a fairly predictable line-up selection. When Dom comes back I think you'll find Tom English riding pine or out o the 23. I REALLY wanna see Tom get a start.

I think a lot of Genia's trouble has to do with the lack of inside runners holding the defence. this allows the defending team to follow him across and slid on to the outside man when he passes. This has been a clear change in the Reds game plan and it's hurting them badly.
