I don't think Saifiti or Plath be back any time soon.

As I said about recruitment & retention decisions fans need to start asking questions about all this stuff.
since f.... when injurys are part of teams some bodys heal quicker than other just like head knocks some get it longer than other



if you ask questions on that sorta crap you need yay ..... head read

Ask questions about training and fitness
Sometimes your criticism goes way too far. So far it's really quite absurd. JMK got a bad cut and it got infected. Flegler was injured by a freak accident in an otherwise innocuous tackle. Saifiti was in a big collision. Plath broke a bone in his foot. None of that has anything to do with fitness or lack of.

With JMK and Saifiti STILL out, I'm still tipping Dolphins but closer.
  • Dolphins by 2
  • MoM: Kaufusi (need middles to have big games with now Gilbert out as well)
  • First try: Donoghue

Both teams have key players missing and the Dolphins backline looks a hell of a lot less potent without the presence of the Hammer. It could be a wet game which might even things up a bit. I'm anticipating another close one and the Dolphins desperately need to spring an upset here in order to keep their season alive.

Bulldogs also have a few injuries (none of the calibre of Flegler, Gilbert or Saifiti) and 3 Origin reps to our 1. So no one has a really big advantage. There will be no excuses. Woolf needs to have them up for a big game and a good win. I think he can.

  • Dolphins by 10
  • First try: Bostock (form has been down. Needs to make a statement with no mistakes, lots of strong carries and good finishing)
  • MoM: Katoa

Bulldogs scrap for every play even when they make an error Kikau comes from left side to clean up grubber. This is what the Dolphins will be up against. The kicking game is already on song with Burton and Sexton.

Happy Michael Ennis and his non-stop laughing is in the commentary again. They are punishing Dolphins fans.

Dolphins discipline, culture and fitness is horrendous.

Bulldogs have 10 out tonight and they just look so fit, connected and systems in place. They’ve forgotten what losing is.

Watch channel 9 for all of some flaws Joey is very fair and brutal on everyone.

Rather than winning after 15min of play, I'd have thought it would already be about 30-0 to the fittest of the fit Bullgrubs.

Bulldogs last two games given up 20 and 14 point leads last two games. They are never ever beaten.
