Nothing surer that NWM will have a ball tearer and TDK will monster our ruckman. The former yet another example of what we dont have on our list, speed, poise, ball use.
Not surprising that 2 of the highest paid players in the game may cause us grief.
You think of that yourself did you Shawny? Gold star for you.
Also happens to be 2 players we have not a single matchup for on our list. But it'll be Vossys fault he doesn't have a unicorn ruck and an elite stoppage midfielder with pace to burn to play on these 2.
Honestly, i don't know if i'd want Harry back in this week.
Give him an extra week just for $hits and giggles.
Kemp+McGovern worked well together - 9 goals between them is about as good as you could hope for.
My changes for this week....
Wilson <-> Florent.....simply need better disposal
F. Young <-> Byrne.....one needs a rest, one needs a gig.
HOK <-> L.Young....Young is not the future, let HOK run around with TDK all day and learn something.
Evans <-> Saad.....Frankie wasn't bad, but i'd like to inject a bit more run and chaos. Potential NWM matchup.
O. Hollands <-> Cottrell.....one is fitter than the other.
Cerra <-> Hewett....i think Cerra was cramping late (or a soft tissue injury) Hewett runs out the games better and has done his time.
Overall, that should give us more run and better disposal, despite being 'like for like' in a lot of ways.
If we are a bit cleaner going inside 50 and in front of goal, then that loss (and this one?) could be turned into a win pretty easily.
Overall, i expect about 1 of them to actually go ahead.....but thats what i'd do.
Whatever happened to you f..k around you find out?
not to allow violence or anything, but you know, if a kid cops it from a security guard, once upon a time, my parents would turn to me, and ask what did you do? If they deemed it unreasonable, I copped punishment from them on top of what they would have copped from the authorities/powers that be.
Is it true the left are genuinely calling for that security guard to sacked, the guard who defended himself and the public from the smartar5e bottle throwing shoplifter?
Do the do-gooders really think the relative size matters when a youth could just as easily held a knife or machete? Do they expect the guards to find out the answer to that question before neutralising the situation?
One of the areas I visit have taken to employing athletic giants as checkout security. Male and female, Amazons, Africans, all well over 190cm, physically impressive, imposing, one of the girls looks like a 195cm African Brook Shields, and they are not afraid of apprehending kids and they are actually capable of apprehending the kids as opposed to the older style discount security. I got to talking to them and they tell me at first they only hired men, but the crooks stated sending teenage girls in the lift mechanise, so now they employ both male and female guards. They said the kids aren't too bright, often rolling up to the stores in oversized puffer jackets on 34°C days!
I hope the authorities look after the security for just doing their job, and yes I think they should be able to use reasonable force to defend themselves, protect the public and uphold the law.
