FTFY. Brad still has favourites even in bye week

For mine, we need to focus on the medium term future in the remaining rounds. Wins/losses are or minor importance.
We should
play Tsatas every week
play Hobbs on ball
play McMahon, May and Blakiston as often as possilbe, even on a rotation with our existing KP players coming back from injury. Nurse Ridley and Reid as much as necessary to guard against recurrence.
play Smart if we are thinking of keeping him (I think he is a pretty certain delist).
play El Hawli
play Visentini, but rest him if he is physically struggling.
We need to have as much information as we can to make good decisions on who to keep at year end, and maximise the value of those we might want to trade (Hobbs, Parish, Tsatas)

If you were picking a best 22 to win a final, all 8 of the above would be borderline selections at best. But we’re not. We need to be smart.

If FCFC respond after their embarrassment and flog Port, we would rise up the ladder (and down the draft order) during our week of not playing. Which we be just about fkn right.

I’d be tinkering like hell with the entire squad this week.

Tracking absolutely heinously at the minute.

Based on the news, probably Draper.

Nah, i reckon Draper leaving is rubbish. Not long ago he stated was staying, hit form, then his leg snapped in half. Now hes out of contract, media have hyped him up as a trade option and everyone has piled on. His management will be letting the rumours run, all part of the game. He seems more than happy with his world at the Bombers. Do i have a "source "? No, but no less than those that call themselves journalists. We need him, hes reaching peak form as his game matures, he lifts the team, its a no from me, and from the big man ide suggest.

Joe Daniher also stated that he loved the club. Then 3 months later decided he loved Brisbane more.
