Pick Your Team Rnd 26 - Bulldogs vs Warriors

JamesGrahamNRLRd10BulldogsvWarriors1E7YEtodh7Qx

After the Round 25 game against the Wests Tigers at Campbelltown Sports Stadium do you want to see any changes for the game against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium?

Promotions?
Demotions?
Any new injury concerns?
Any returning players?
Any tweaks to the bench?
Mason Lino or Chad Townsend?
Konrad Hurrell starting?

Discuss...
 
1. Wright
2. Lolohea
3. Hurrell...getting pretty sick of this guys effort levels.
4. Kata
5. Allwood
6. Tomkins
7. Lino
8. Matulino
9. Friend
10.Mannering
11.Thompson
12.Hoffman
13.Lisone

14.Bhana
15.Vete
16.Ikahihifo
17.Peyroux
 
I'm going to assume Tomkins/Gubb are out with nobody coming back other than the suspended Matulino.

1. Allwood
2. Wright
3. Kata
4. Peyroux
5. Maumalo
6. Lino
7. Lolohea
8. Matulino
9. Friend
10. Vete
11. Hoffman
12. Thompson
13. Mannering

14. Ikahihifo
15. Lisone
16. RFM
17. Who's left? Lousi? Havilli?

What a shit team. Lol.

Hurrell ---> door's that way
 
Is Tomkins gone for the season with the injury? I would think hes booking his plane ticket right now. Gubb will be gone well into next season for his 2 shoulder charges.

1. Loloheia
2. Allgood
3. Kata
4. Hurrell
5. Wright
6. Townsend
7. Lino
8. Lousi
9. Friend
10. Matulino (if hes back)
11. Thompson
12. Hoffman
13. Mannering

14. Vete
15. Lisone
16. RFM
17. Havilli (why not, give him 30mins, rest Friend for a bit)

Our roster was packed with potential at the start of the year, now its looking like a disaster waiting to happen next year, save us Roger Tuivasa-Sheck you're our only hope

Got bored at work so started to go through the different combinations over the year.

A couple of interesting things I found:

We have had 16 different right side combinations, 7 different left side combinations and 8 different spine combinations
Does Lolohea's utility value cost us settled combinations?
Wright should stay on the right wing
The best right hand combination is Thompson, Lolohea, Wright and Thompson, Hurrell, Wright
The best left hand combination is Hoffman, Kata, Vatuvei
The best spine combination is Tomkins, Townsend, Johnson, Leuluai and Tomkins, Townsend, Johnson, Friend
When Tomkins played we won 6 from 13
When Johnson played we won 9 from 18
When Leuluai played we won 5 from 10
When we win we hold the opposition team to an average of 14 points
When we win we score an average of 26 points

7. Tomkins
8. Vete
9. Friend

Good choice Ryno.Watching Tui this year has been enlightening for me.He has skills and speed but he lacks the playmaking vision and defensive skill set and committment required of a top grade quality standoff.His role going forward for me is ideally bench back cover as he can cover many positions adequately but unless he improves won't reach the level required to be starting choice in any position.Having said that he could one day replace Luke at hooker but the lack of vision will always mean he will be a second rate half.(and we have had enough of those already)

Interesting stats. So even with our supposed "superstars" TL and Shaun Johnson, are winning strike rate is only 50%. Confirms what we all know, there's a bigger problem (its called defence) and its not just from missing these players.

Your boss must be stoked!!
 
Are you allowed to forfeit games? Could be a massacre. :( A season already down the toilet will definitely be flushed away - could be nasty. :wideyed:
 
I'd drop Hurrell, hopefully after which he has a sook, is released and goes to rugby.
