LIVE GAME Round 22 vs. Cowboys

[Demps]

We need to target the edge with Chad, Kyle and Vaileia.

So weak.
Ran through twice for both our tries.

Send the traffic through there.

 

[hsvjones]

As soon as we lost Latu Stains loses confidence in his centre and runs in for 2 open tries.
We need quality centres / wingers urgently.

The other side look ok

I give the error and hopefully he will learn from it.

Unlike Nofa and Doueihi - I agree that Staines has the desire and toughness to actively work on his defensive reads!

I bagged him when he got steamrolled by Montoya in the trial last year - BUT he put his body in front and didn't intentionally avoid the collision like the two aforementioned cats!

 

[Demps]

Him m twal and seyfarth are the reason we're not
20 down. Benji used the bench very well last quarter

He is big and plays with a lot of energy
Other than the silly penalty, he's been immense

 

[Tom Shines]

It’s not that . It’s that he will end up in the 13 eventually Ala dare I say it John Sutton . I guess it’s a timing thing do we do it now , and give latu the 6 , or wait for the inevitable to happen .
I mean tbh they did the same thing about wighton and he never has gone anywhere near the forward pack .
I will say this his kicking game is far more natural . Latu seems to really force his kicks .

whats with the hype for Latu?

He may turn into a player ..but has done nothing to justify it so far

 

[stephen]

Bula has been our best by a significant margin!

Looks great when he backs himself & goes for it. Just think he can fade out at times & become a little passive on both sides of the ball.
Running nice & direct tonight.

The Klown in the box likes to find random stuff to ping us for

I just rewinded the obstruction , Granville was 20 odd meters from where the ball came down he had no hope of even getting to the ball , that ref and bunker are ******

 

[Tucker]

Boys having a go tonight.
Latu doesn’t get hurt and we’d be ahead Id say. His defence was working quite well.

 

[Tigrr2]

I like Johansen he is a bit like Samuela in his shape and movement, sign him up and get him on the weights

Agree to disagree - but glad you can see it tonight sir!

Bro missed about 15 mins of that 1st half
We looked ok. Need to rush up more in D
ref has been quite librel, we need a wriggle on

 

[TigerSJ]

I think Johannsen looks ok. He is keen and mobile. Room for improvement in D using his shoulders and driving in. A few more kilos will help as well.
First half- too many errors giving them easy field position which we are incapable of defending.
Shame we lost Latu - it has upset our whole rotation and exposes Api.

 

[Tom Shines]

I don't think he will be moved from 6 and Fainu look very comfortable on the right side in 7. Both are good defenders which is an immediate advantage.

I would not be moving Galvin to accomodate Latu …

Galvin 6 and Luai 7 next year

 

[stephen]

Does benji have a rev up speech in him?
I hope so. Latu out really hurt me haha

Yeah. Latu can't get a break at the moment.

He may be another piece in the puzzle. We look be putting together a good team from juniors. I just despise the fact Gould is commentating on our game. It is like a smorgasboard for him. Conflict of interest must be eradicated from the NRL.

Real talk. He was just getting his feet wet!

And it was an effort play in cover defence that he should never have had to make due to the Luki infringement taking out Papalii that concussed him!

The poor kid can't cop a break!

Defence for starters . No coincidence he went off wnd the points started leaking . I actually think he is the one to end up in the middle . Seems like a victor radley type hard nut IMO.
It’s just Galvin has the more prototype body shape for it , which is what the middle stuff is all about .

Latu being eased back. Ball going to Galvin majority of the time. Hammy issues restricting Latu's kicking.

No Fainu is a 7 with Galvin at 6.
