LIVE GAME Round 19 v Warriors

[weststigerman]

When Bula is back, Skelton is gone IMO.

 

[Vicious]

Left hand side defence has been attrocious.
Pole is clearly not ready to start games at prop, he’s never effective when doing so.
He generally comes back on and is much better in his 2nd stint.

 

[Sully]

How did May go today?

Taylan May Three tries in a 22-14 loss in KOE. Maybe back against the Titans next week

 

[Winston Churchill]

54% possession Warriors. If we get that in the second half we probably win.

We can only go up by 4s not 6. Big hill to climb.

 

[Droppy05]

Despite that, they’ve only put 3 on us.
We’re a good second half team.
Well and truly still in this.

Hope you are right?

 

[hsvjones]

They’re desperate because they know they can’t build pressure with 2 refs pulling non stop [This word has been automatically removed]ery all game … I swear to god if I was coach I would have pulled the team off the field

I kinda would love to this this happen..

That way the NRL would have to look into this bias refing because it would be massive news.. When Payton brough it up things started to change for his team so why not..

 

[king_sirro]

I wonder if Benji will ever realise he has to start Sione. We get dominated early in every game. Sione is the only player we have that always makes post contact metres and lands on his front

 

[upthetigers]

Our halves are not in the game

Luai is playing like someone leaving the club

 

[Winston Churchill]

Taylan May Three tries in a 22-14 loss in KOE. Maybe back against the Panther's next week

On that performance compared to whats on the park now, he should be the first named for the first grade squad on Tuesday.

 

[weststigerman]

Warriors are an average team. Thats why it is frustrating being incompetent against these teams that we should beat.

They are in the top 4 and the reason for that is their forwards. We should not be trying to beat them in the middle.

 

[Furious1]

We’re not adapting to the conditions in attack. Run straight, hold the line and let the ball do the work. The sideline is not a friend especially in these conditions.

 

[Fish88]

never seen someone worse that Pole at getting back up after a tackle. Hes literally in the ground or offside after every tackle he makes. Liability.

 

[Westoz]

We are incompetent too mate….plus our 6 is still only here for a paycheque.

Starting to think that as well

1.2m is putrid for what he dishes up week in week out

 

[Tom Shines]

We’ve gone to NZ with a plan to beat the Warriors in the middle. Something we’ve never ever done but the coaching staff thought this was the right game plan.

This is their plan most weeks this season .., they are very conservative which plays into the opposition hands

 

[SeanT]

Ok so every play to the left Luai gives a short ball to Fainu or he kicks a bomb that's not high enough.

The fact we have Skelton and Dougie outside him who are slow as really hampers any attacks. Honestly with they attack to the right with Toa. At least he has acceleration to get on the outside.

 

[Winston Churchill]

I get this feeling if we win today we will go on a run. If Newcastle can go on a run why can't we lol
Luai is playing like someone leaving the club

Writings on the wall, going through the motions. Didnt his dad let the cat out the bag like 2 months ago and they pretended that wasnt a thing lol. The guy is GOOOOOONE

 

[tiger_one]

Refs/bunker are ruining fair football.

 

[innsaneink]

Fox commentators agree the challenge was BS

 

[twentyforty]

Both teams defending well. Either team can win this.

 

[Tom Shines]

Left hand side defence has been attrocious.
Pole is clearly not ready to start games at prop, he’s never effective when doing so.
He generally comes back on and is much better in his 2nd stint.

They miss Bula … they look very bereft of backline threats without him
