Forwards

[SeanT]

Even when we were 10-0 up our ruck area was abysmal. The hitups were slow, the linespeed was atrocious and even going backwards, offloads were allowed every set and Tamou,Seyfarth and the rest did not slow the ruck at all.

Jeez we really need API and a couple of decent front rowers.

No way we will be competitive if we can't gain the territorial advantage through the middle

So disappointed

Luciano sucks.
Ball hog and average defender


Kelma is even worse...

Poor Seyf.
Isn't ready for first grade yet.

Luciano is a ball hog but at least he runs hard and breaks the tackles. Need more of it. Jeez

Our forwards have at least been playing with effort the last couple of weeks, today they were undeniably poor, they were smashed.

 

[Aceshigh]

Absolute soft forwards , Joe tried again the rest I wouldn’t have fed

Last week if you noticed they were the same at stages. We had a huge possession last week in the first half yet our forwards were blowing hard as.

Maybe it is a fitness thing.

Jeez Cameron Murray loved playing against our forwards

He's gone.

Won't be missed.

Need to find another hitter to partner with the beat second rower in the game, Mr Papalii .

I agree. Someone decent with a big motor.

As soon as Twal was out, I knew we were in trouble. He is tough and no nonsense. Stefano is injured imo. Leilua off his feet.

 

[Lukic]

Really missed Twal tonight. Does all the little things so well.

Seyfarth is too weak. Makes some decent tackles and has good technique, but maybe the worst attacking forward in the comp.

 

[WT2K]

Pathetic performance by the forwards. Sheens better add more quality next season or it'll be the same shit. Papali'i and Api won't be enough.

missed twal badly

Not one forward on the park should hold his head high.

Laurie Naden and Mumalo are the only decent ones having a go.

 

[Demps]

Missed Twal...

Yas all calling him a plodder a month ago.

He still is but he's a fit as plodder who doesn't miss tackles. Definately top 17.

I do hate him running on the forth though. Always slow play the balls for the kicker.

 

[ElleryHanley]

Pack were atrocious.

Bent back from the start and absolutely no one fired up.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

1. Laurie
2. To'oa / Nofo
3. Douhie
4. Naden
5. Maumalo
6. Brooks
7. Hastings

I'll admit before the game I thought Twal was no loss. Seyfarth will replace him no problems. Twal out might be the reason we were smashed but we've been rolled with him on the park plenty of times. It's hard to say if he makes a difference.

Stef isn't up to it atm.

Twal out might have been a big part of the problem though. He is a great defender.

 

[SeanT]

Who is the most aggressive front rowers in the New cup reserves? Sign him up now. Need someone too run like they mean it.

 

[weststigerman]

Souths dominated the middle when we played them last time, we just had more resilience then.
