Thats why i say going into the game i hope we see a really positive reaction and performance, but if its scraping 2 points then i cant get excited about that or see that the 2 points is anything more than a sticking plaster over a bottom side that means little when we come up against better teams.

Yes I read the same article mate I get it.

I try to take an even view. I have criticised Smith too. What are you actually disagreeing with about what I’ve just said about Newman?

I’d start Ackers for this one, and drop Roberts with Edgell on wing, TNW on the bench. Would even consider something like Johnson, Lisone, TNW and O’Connor for the bench and use Jarrod more in the middle. Plenty of energy to bring on then.Johnson has been playing well recently.

Only Fusitua, Holroyd and Bentley missing from the first 13 jersey numbers. No excuses today, we must perform.

To be fair Fus and Holroyd make a big difference and even with Bentley maybe we miss his competitiveness.

But yes we should be winning the game today.

I'm no fan of Roberts but I would still play him over Edgell who looks far too light weight ATM for SL.This should be a comfortable win.If we lose then I can't see how Smith can keep his position.

No Ackers, concussion protocol apparently

Is Roberts dropped? I personally wouldn't play Edgell anywhere other than FB, when Miller is out.

Expect this to be a tight game today, Cas are steadily improving and we are going opposite direction.

One score game. We lose though and Smith has to go!

Roberts is warming up with the team, so must be dropped
