Changes for Rnd 22 V The Saints

[rb4x]

I reckon Henry must chair the selection committee because he has kept his best players for a hard 2's match against Brisbane and left the soft players in the 1's. On a wet track I would be looking at the stronger players like Bevan, Moore and what more has Gordon to do get a look in. That HF line as named stinks but of course they won't line up like that. I wonder what Jetta will take for those photos. The Bloods are now the Swansdowns.

I don't mean to slander anyone but it must be seriously disheartening to players trying to break in to the side when consistent non-performers are seemingly kept in the side "on spec" that they might turn their form around in the senior side. It must also discourage the senior players that have to carry these passengers.

Somehow I don't feel heartened by these stats from Longmire interview today:

We've won two of our past eight games at Homebush.
We've kicked more goals than behinds in just seven out of 19 games this year.

He could've also mentioned it's three years since we last beat the Saints.

Int ?Malceski,Rohan,Spangher,White.
Em ?Meredith,Parker, Seaby.

Parker and Meredith OUT

[Dan]

Hmm thought one of Parker or Meredith would have kept their spot. Parker did nothing wrong when he came on in the last and did more than 3/4 of the team, at least he was having a crack unlike some others. Meredith is pretty unlucky, come back for one game then dropped. Pretty harsh outs but yay for Rohan!

[JudesaGun]

Parker very stiff.

Would have preferred to go in with only one ruck in the wet. This always happens with White...

Int ?Malceski,Rohan,Spangher,White.
Em ?Meredith,Parker, Seaby.

Parker and Meredith OUT

Typically 2 players who didn't deserve to get dropped, get dropped. Parker was one of our 3 best players last week and Meredith did some very good things and deserves the chance to get to grips with the pace of the ones. He could possibly be an important player in our next premiership team.. Give the guy a decent chance!!! Mattner and Jetta must be amazed that these clowns keep selecting them! And McGlynn might need a message sent after several quiet games and some truly terrible forward defending....and Bolton was terrible (apparently because of an injury) so could do with a rest.

I don't know, I homnestly don't :-)

[Nich]

Rohan as Sub you would think. Would love to seem him get more than 1qtr though. Hopefully it happens before the year is out.

[msb]

I didnt think white would be in ahead of seaby and yes parker is very unlucky to be dropped IMO.

[swansprincess]

Are the selectors stupid or ignorant? How the hell can ANYONE in their right min, drop Parker, who has been one of the few decent players over the last couple of horrible games, yet keep JETTA, who is weak as p*ss, with little to no skill and plays selfish football. Not to mention that it's forecast for rain, so a skinny little guy with zero muscle, is going to be even more useless than he normally is. @@@@@@ing beyond me.

[JudesaGun]

You'd think we're too top heavy with Spangher and White. Hopefully one starts as the sub and Rohan gets a full game.

[swansprincess]

The only run added will be Rohan, if he's picked.
Once again too many talls on what looks like another wet track?
That's just plain dumb.
Where is Gordon?
IMO it should of been ...
IN - Rohan, Gordon, Seaby
OUT - Kennelly, LRT, Jetta

I think the only reasonably conclusion here is, the selectors are taking bribes from the opposition to play the worst team we can muster up.

Not sure what Parker did wrong, hope it is a match up thing and he is being rested for the finals.. (OK I'm still dreaming..)

What the hell does Meredith have to do to get a few games in a row??

He has a 9-6 win-loss ratio, not too bad.
