[The Brain]

My info aint tight but they are saying Niko will be playing holden cup on Monday and Aiden to 5/8th - I would rather see Watson get a run.

Common sense prevails if true.

Niko's confidence is shot atm. A spell in NYC will do him the world of good.

Seems the Lurker has heard the same thing

Roosters to make big changes



The Roosters are struggling for answers and I’m hearing coach Trent Robinson will do more shuffling of the deck chairs on the Titanic this weekend.
Former Bronco Jayden Nikorima has again been named at five-eighth for the big clash with the Dragons, but I’ve been told he will be playing in the Holden Cup after struggling in recent weeks.
Back-rower Aidan Guerra will take his place at five-eighth, where he has had mixed success in several games to date this season.

Guerra at 5/8th again,when will this season end aarrgghhhhh

Aarrrghh is right but I can't help but think he will be better than Nikorima. The kid just isn't up for it at this point in his career. Not saying he won't be a player for the future but we need a player for NOW! I hear Mitchell Pearce may be a contender

The Lurker is being kind with his speaking "double". I should know

"... where he has had mixed success in several games to date this season."

First player dropped by TRobbo

More Johnny Famechon than Mario Fenech. And dropping Fighting Harada isn't the answer.

[Headless Chook]

Our last tackle options continues to suck badly > the predictable bombs away despite different half/5/8 combinations & a halves coach.

Therefore, one must draw the conclusion that TRobbo insists on the high kick with a good chase and tackle so the defence can be set. Boring, predictable and ineffective. The best kickers in the game JT, Cronk, Adam Reynolds & Coward kick it deep between winger and fullback trying to force a repeat set or the very least force the opposition to work hard at getting out of their own end.

I scratch my head

Therein lies the problem, Hastings does not have a long kick. It will happen when Pearce, who has a good long kicking game, returns.

Yeh desperate times hehe

[OMR]

Why not Aubosson at 5/8? he has filled in there in the past with decent results.

Perhaps Trent Robinson values Mitchell Aubusson's running game out wide more and sees that Aiden Guerra can soak up defense more effectively.

yeag great like last week in the second half when Aubbs moved to the right and Mr Squiggle and Einstein saw no ball

[LargeMike]

Geez and I was confident about Monday. Why would you move Guerra who had arguably his best game last week?

[Vasco]

With Liu out I would have thought Guerra plays lock, his best position.
