Could someone PLEASE let me know where Georgie Rose is? It feels like he's just fallen off this planet and no one's taken any notice.

He went from having very little game time to none at all now.
I like our bench though.

Triple M on the weekend mentioned he was on the outer. So who knows. It's all a little confusing.

Well there is a rumour he was late to training 3 days in a row and Bellamy gave him an in house 2 game suspension but that doesn't explain why his not playing this week

Can we please blood Walker into the team this weekend too. Hampton hasn't been up to the grade and Walker is much more prepared for footy at the top level. I'll be distraught if we lose him to Souths.

Surely Moors must be in with a shot of getting a run? both him and Vave performed well when given the opportunity last year (albeit in limited stints)

Moors must have run over Bellamy's dog.

Agreed - I've liked the look of Moors since seeing him and Fifita run around for the Tigers... it's been hugely disappointing to know that we have someone like Moors at our disposal and he's not being utilised for some reason.

While I do agree with the sentiments about Moors, he has actually missed a lot of games with injury or been injured than returned to NSW cup. Not always big injuries but he seems to have a niggle here, miss a week and than return to NSW cup, or get an injury, nurse it till game day than play.

I would lke to see him in the team but I have noticed that while he appears to have often been overlooked, the club have also been guilty of keeping quiet on his injuries and not communicating about all the injuries our players incur, which occasionally misleads our supporters to believe that they are on the outer with the coaching staff.

He missed some of the preseason and was out for a time late last year, so in some regard much like Travis Robinson they are behind in their conditioning,

Geez I actually forgot about Moors. Get him in the team! He's got soft hands and a good break from our normal structured plays.

I went to training today and I would say that Ben Roberts will be playing Monday night in place of Ben Hampton.
