TEAM LIST Round 18 v Roosters

[BlackWhiteGold]

The only reason to fast (outside of religious reasons) is to restrict calorie intake/go into a calorie deficit. There’s literally no other benefit to it.

I can’t believe our coaching and performance staff allow for this. He’s just going to be depleted and lethargic.

Hopefully the 3 days were earlier in the week & has reloaded carbs into his system today.

Dont understand this....would love to know why...why every few months
Why....at all?

Not sure mate, maybe like a dry July type thing perhaps ?

Yeah I don't understand it either if you want to do this crap why not do it earlier in the week.

Not finish it the day before a game when you have lightened off, why take a risk with game day.

Is it taking wellness too far.

The quote is 'May, who again undertook a three-day fast in the lead up to Sunday’s Allianz Stadium encounter, said he remains close with many of his ex-Roosters teammates"

He may have fasted earlier in the week, which is "in the lead up".

3 day fast generally can reset your immune system.

Worth trying.

You can still have energy and perform tasks at a good level despite being depleted.

Autophagy helps to reboot your body, especially if you have a big body. Long gone are the days of 6 cokes with a maccas double brekkie meal and fries.

Going by that poorly written article it seems like it was earlier

 

[Speed2burn]

How do players not know who they are playing? Don’t the coaching staff do video & game plan work all week vs the opposition?

Or is it just poorly worded by the journalist

Laulilli defending in the centres worries me. How was he picked there before Faataape or Naden even? Put Tuitupou on the wing, or is he too big and powerful? Coach Benji is living the Sheens fantasy of picking small young players with potential before their time,

Lol I genuinely wonder if even half our fans watch the actual games.

So instead of trying Luke in the centres, you’d rather go with cokehead Naden, who couldn’t defend his way out of a paper bag, or Fataape, an undersized centre who is good for at least one brain dead moment per game?

Terrell May doing a 3 day fast in the lead up to tomorrow’s game. He did one prior to Storm game too. Hopefully the game result doesn’t repeat.

Via story tonight in SMH

Not sure how he can retain the same energy levels with a depletion of carbs in his system. I’m sure the club S&C staff know more than me though.

Fasting generally works to lower levels of Glycosis function, so not relying on carbs we eat to make energy in the body. After a few days of limited carbohydrates the body moves into Ketosis, so burning fat stores for energy instead of carbs, which is a much more efficient energy source.....
Big T might be going wild out there today and destroying fools. Lets go Uso!

Definitely covered in team meetings. Latu to torture them id say, gotta target the rookies.

But do they know that he is doing it?

That would be my thought as well.

Wish me luck got the game face on and ready to turn the rooster into a feather duster. Giddy up TIGA "please"

some reason I’m optimistic about today which is rare. Not sure why and the it’s more than likely going to be an ugly one sided game.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Have risen from a different side of the bed this morning.

Tigers 34-22 winners.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

I said earlier in the week WT 50-0 & sticking to it.

I feel the same. I have hated match ups against the chooks for over a decade and never expect to win against them, but I just feel like we match up really well today (even without Api, Luai and Bula). Win incoming....Tigers 13+
