Webby getting alot of grief for dropping Tannah..I said many weeks ago leave him in and let him grow. We got no other options he's a good kicker(.high attacking kicks need work). Even Kenty agrees with me lol
Not sure Kenty agreeing with you is something to brag about.

I'm guessing Tanah was dropped for his defensive weaknesses, Webster seems to put that above many things.

Funny that, Cos Te maire is just as as bad. Te maire's front on dee is weak sauce. Boyd is better in contact front on , But is shit moving laterally.
Te maire has a mid kicking game. Boyd is the superior kicker. Boyd doesn’t have the speed or footwork of TMM.

Apples & oranges with these two. If TMM couldn't unseat CHT who only offers great defense. Then webby must of thought, For all TMM attacking potential. His failings must be his defense? As he sat in NSW Cup for a long time.
 
Solid team and for the first time in a while barring injury, I think we will run out close to what’s been named 1-17 today. That team on paper is quite a level above what the dragons are putting out, our forwards should bully them
 
And little other stock to consider TBH. The cupboard is essentially empty. More or less picked itself.
Tis why I haven't said anything.

What is there to say apart from it is the best we can do, unless you are one of these people that moan about NSW cup players not being picked every week.

Gee if only it were that simple, if only defence didn't exist in League.
