3-2-1 Trial 1: Wests Tigers v Warriors

  • Thread starter Thread starter Cobarcats
  • Start date Start date
It was only a trial so certainly plenty of improvement to come especially when we get a host of our new signings and experienced players so really looking forward to seeing what we produce on the next outing. 10 odd regular side players is a fair whack.

the 48 points put on us is concerning. Yes the Warriors had a bit more experience in their side. However, they also didn't have many other top side players either - Tohu Harris, Shaun Johnson, Wade Egan, Dallin Watene Zelezniak, Addin Fonua Blake, Jazz Tevaga, Josh Curran, and then you add new signings, Dylan Walker, Marata Niukore, and Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad who have either won a Premership and or been involved in finals series.

Good/strange to see so much more positive judgement of Seyfarth's performance in this thread.

Having been catching up on the live thread rather than watching the match, I got much more of the opposite opinion during the game. I expect that such was just the usual bias/prejudices playing out.

Make no mistake, Seyfarth was rubbish last night.

He tried, that's his thing. But he got monstered in attack and defence and made on average 5m a hitup. Simply not good enough. Last night he showed that even against a non full strength opposition pack he can't dominate.

And we DEFINILTEY don't have room for both he and Twal in the same 17. If Seyfarth plays in more than 4-5 NRL games in 2023 then our pack must be decimated and the worst in the comp

when you start a new thread, instead of choosing "discussion", you choose "poll" its in the top menu (see below). then ask the question, put a name for Beth poll, put individual names in the possible responses field and finally you choose the options you want at the bottom and you are done

Well there you go, learn something everday. Where would the adjudicator come from?

By my count they had 7 or 8 of their top 17 playing. We may have had 3 or 4.

More importantly they had better halves playing.
 
Barring Stephano I can't believe players are getting honourable mentions
We let in 9 tries against a Warriors side that's no where near their main side
Defence is an attitude and looking at our lack of effort ,memories of the last few rounds of 2022 come back to haunt me . Cant imagine we pick much more than Stephano for Rd 1
 
3. AJ - Didn't stuff up once, ran hard and defended well
2. Stef - Still bludged and walked up to defenders on return runs
1. Pole - impact forward (bench player)

I thought 10 was Pole but now realise from your comments it was James.( these guys are all relatively new to me)
Yes, I thought he ran and tackled very well and so anyone who saw my 3-2-1 earlier swap James for Pole.
Can’t really agree with your comments re Stef, thought he had a dip and tried to get things moving forward.
Pardon my ignorance but is James home grown or an import ? ( yes, I know I’m a stupid old fart).

My head is literally hurting, not from what your saying, just not well 🥴
Mate if someone can wrangle it I'm all for members having fun. Just need to get someoone to run with it and if there's something that they need from us we'll see if we can help.

37 tackles from 37 attempts for Matamua. That’s a great effort in defence. Pole, Stafano and Seyfarth over 100m.

Hard to give votes for a trial but Pole and Stefano looked notches above the rest, Matamua looks a real goer and Bula looks promising.

Good appraisal Yoss 👍
