Yeah it’s a bit bizarre. Fair enough winning today is our final roll of the dice for finals but if this is the team he backs to win then why has the club moved on all the guys that he has more faith in.
Wonder how long this has been going on… gamble didn’t get selected because of a sore calf
I can’t really remember exactly which game but a few weeks ago he was nursing it during a game so it’s been a couple rounds I’d assume
Of those yet to extended, Oates is the only cert. I will be astonished if the club calls shenanigans on the Billy experiment. He's a near cert. Hoeter is the most at risk of being let go, especially if the Warriors send Arthars back to us.
Or some other reason...
Arthurs is a better player the Hoeter just quietly
Agree 100%. He was probably our best back last year. But he never managed to attract a fanbase around here.
We can still play finals.
Winning is the easy bit. We need the Tigers to beat the Raiders as well. Unless you think we can put 50+ on the Dragons in the wet. Fat chance of that.
Agreed, it's a long shot.
The question then becomes “if these players are our best chance of winning instead of the guys that are here next season, then why are we moving them all on?”
Because they are the best available/most ready right now. They are being moved on because the club views better options coming through or coming in and these guys have hit their ceiling.
What’s happened to him, is he coming back?
