It's an opinion. Deal with it.
Forward goes out. Back comes in.
What other conclusion is there to draw?
Unless there's a rabbit waiting to leap from a hat, I'd say we were going defensive.
What do you think?
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
I wish people would get off the "Take them on", bandwagon. If we take on the filth, by which I presume people mean we play flowing, attacking football we will get hammered. Saints Footy is how we'll beat them. We may need to kick 12-13 goals to win, but pretty it won't be.
As for Tommy Walsh, I too am disappointed that he hasn't been played, but surely RL is in a better position to judge than we are. Maybe by observing the lad at close quarters for 2 years and having a direct hand in his development, he is in the best position to judge whether he is ready or not. Clearly Ross thinks he's not. My worry is he may never be.
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

But I assume Ross has a plan.
Hope his plan s***s it in.
that is the plan. cue in the rack at halftime.
keep something in reserve for the finals!
maybe?
Hmmmm. Yeah no worries. We have to win the game before anything else. Every game is a must win and have to hit the finals with momentum. Any loss is a shot in the arm and at the end of the day we dont want to just "scrape into the finals" only to be railroaded out a week later.

And Kosi will play permanent forward.
Agree...
Also remember that playing one extra down back has killed us against the Pies.
So I expect 6 forwards. Roo and Kosi...and Blake showing Brown.
I'm not sure that'd be appropriate. Kids will be watching.

Where's Tommy Walsh?
I'd not be surprised if he went home to Ireland because he hasn't been selected.
He would have made all teh differnece against the Pies.
Watch them train on Wednesday and his enthusiasm and willingness to improve is first rate. I think he knows his turn in the firsts will come ( even if its next year )

um, "a shot in the arm" is generally considered to be a good thing - a stimulant, something that gets you going. i don't think you understand what you are saying.

So no indication of him getting jacked off and returning to Ireland, as many on here have suggested?
