    He's injured and been playing under duress. The lack of power in his legs is obvious. Of course he's not playing as well as last year. Even his supporters have recognised that, and most people predicted this week he'd be first to make way for Mills, including people like me who think he'll be terrific long-term.

    But this is now about you needing, what, a hug?

    RB only played 59% game time last week, which is a pretty good indication that he's not fully fit. Nonetheless, I thought he played a pretty decent game, all things considered. He made some nice passes to hit up targets, laid some good tackles and kicked a crucial goal at the time.

    As long as Warner puts the performances and is fit It does but Bell will definitely keep putting the efforts in as he has for a number of weeks now…it won’t be as simple as that ..it will have to be very clear based on performances

    No but considering i am always being told that i dont admit when im wrong even though i do, its funny im not seeing anyone acknowledge that i wasnt just hating on him and that my criticisms of RB were obviously grounded in truth !

    Sounds like he has taken his recovery seriously and been a professional about it

    Speaking of Ratbags lol. Rowbottom is injured. He has soreness in the legs, probably calves. He also played two matches last week.

    This should be obvious to anyone with clear vision.
    It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

    I think you mean "supposed" to play different roles in the team.

    Bells last 3 weeks have netted, 1 goal, 24 possessions and 5 tackles.

    Anyone of those talls could do that.

    Bell is playing the role of a Sub that comes on in the last qtr, Stephens and Clarke must be spewing

    Ratbags on our list TB? Seriously? I don’t think Horse would tolerate that, my friend.

    As for RB, it is obvious to most of us that he is carrying an injury, hence his impaired performances of late.
