Bulldogs girls running hard and strong. At times we look like we are struggling to hold them, but they just don’t seem to be able to finish. We on the other hand seem to be able to find the try line.
Sharks are horrible. Absolutely nothing. Trindell carries them on his back. Back 3 and Sifa are the only guys running the ball hard- the rest are bludging.
100%- also their edge players in that similar channel were strong. Our current group (without KPP and May) have nothing in that very important area of the game in A or D. Sam F has not been the same player since his return.
Can’t agree with some of the takes on Api and Luai last night. Thought Api tried his heart out and definitely needs a rest during the game when we are able to carry a half/ middle next season. As for Luai, I thought he tried hard as well and his performance certainly made a difference to us on...
Thought Api played strongly May and Pole also were much improved. Sukkar tried hard as did Seyfarth. Really however I felt an unbiased assessment would place their pack over ours with their middles and Taumalolo running hard and making huge pcms. Their edges also outplayed ours. Bunty did well...
Roberts looks ok in A but stands flat footed in D and can easily miss his defensive assignment. He may benefit from some technique training and coaching in this area.
Sukkar is just a little short on athleticism but is trying hard. He is serviceable but compared to the high quality edge players...
The issue is that he shouldn’t be playing in the NRL. He is not ready and has cost us dearly with his poor D. He’s not the only one. WTF was Mason doing, from the moment he came on he made one dumb move after another - the guy is so out of his league.
Too many weak links resulting from poor...
Even worse. Plenty of points in their backs - we better be on our D otherwise the scoreline we were expecting last week will come home to bite us this week!
It’s a big concern- Chester and Laybutt are strong centres. Hopefully Drinkwater favours their left side attack rather than running down Saukuru’s side as he’s way too quick for Sol.
