LIVE GAME Round 3 versus Souths

[BalmainBoy67]

Misery loves company so we all come onto this forum.

Enough is enough. Why is our attack so crap!?

We definitely need to work on our attack/finish inside the ten.

hes lazy as

More runs than any other player on the field. You sure he was lazy?

If it wasn’t for Jye Gray the Rabbitohs would have been lucky to score more than 1 or 2 tries themselves.
A good fullback makes a difference.

Clearly MOM tonight. In attack and defence he contributed highly.

The halves can only look good when the forwards lay the platform. Last week they both looked amazing. Pole looked better tonight but we need more from him if hes going to be starting.

We easily won the middle. Api played a lone hand in the spine, terrible from the other 3.

It was an issue last season. What have they worked on in the offseason?

Jesus Benji… way to,tell,jock madden you don’t trust him without telling him you don’t trust him… seriously why sit him in the Bench and not use the 7 on the bench when both halves were injured.. so disappointing tonight…douhei worst game .. very dumb tonight

Generally agree, though I think it was too late to use Madden as Seyfarth and Hope had not long been on when Luai went off, then Api returning for him took up another interchange.

Gray is one of the best FBs going around so far this season …

More luck than brilliant strategy I would suggest … they pay him like $300k a year or something

 

[NJLM78]

madden provides structure at 7

He could get a good go at it now.

 

[upthetigers]

We need more from Luai. We are paying him the big bucks to ice games like this.

 

[madgey76]

I’m over this Bula bloke Gray outplayed him even with 15mins off the field, the soon Bula goes to the dogs the better

so how he go in defense ??? u know theres 2 sides to the game right ???

 

[nrlsurvivor]

as much as the loss sucks the boys played well and did enough to win it. We were fitter and stronger than them, they just had bit more class on the night. Jye gray played off the charts and was the difference.

It’s a shame we put Hope on just before Luai got injured.

 

[user118245]

Idk how reliable it is but have seen Luai MCL in replies to nrlphysio posting about Adam in one of his groups. Please take with a grain of salt

Thought they had already used 4 subs

 

[Yossarian]

I’ll have watch it back but I could have sworn Souths touched the ball before Skelton or whoever it was charged for the line. Also Makasini should have just tried to run over Gray.

I think he got upgraded to 500 or 600k.
We have have a fullback worth twice as much.
In Bula’s defence our halves went from the penthouse to the basement within one week, so that didn’t help anyone.

Yep played like absolute shit the last 20mins, killed the game by jogging to Souths last try and then leaping 10cm off the ground to be outjumped by 5 foot tall South fullback with the game on the line try that would have won the game. Yeah, pretty bad game.

It feels like we have it worked out up till there, it was like we didn't have a plan once we got close to the try line.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Going across the ditch was going to be hard enough. Going over without halves, sheesh.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

why would u use hope though ??? hes not that good and he was the weakest hooker in the trials

Exactly..he needed to bring madden in instead of hope… hope had no clue tonight
