Thank you BWG I don’t like the sound “not through leg speed” Today’s game back rowers need speed. I’ll keep a look out for post on how he is progressing in the future.

I’m remembering back to the 70s when some players covered front rower & Hooker. (Elwyn Walters, John Grey) Don’t think it would work today. They are not hookers today they are dummy half’s with no worries about receiving a Liverpool kiss when the first scrum packed down. Oh the things I miss...

Hey BWG What’s your opinion on how Ethan Robert’s is performing so far ?

I have to mention how good I thought Pole was last night, I know he doesn’t play the minutes of T.May but his go forward last night was the reason we were on the front foot. Plus his defence which I have criticised in the past is so much better as well this year. Keeping him to 20 minute spells...

Who would want to play right centre with A.D the half on your side. You wouldn’t expect much ball coming your way. Didn’t see To’a do much wrong tonight will only get better with match fitness

Will be a real test next week with possible Hooker,2nd row & Fullback all missing. We have had a good run with injuries this year let’s hope tonight isn’t the time things changed. Losing KPP would really affect our structure As our 2x 2nd rowers have made a lot of difference in how we defend...

I can’t believe everything I read on this thread about Maddens ability. He is a back up half back who was brought back as cover incase of injuries. Latu Fainu is a better option for the future and should be on the bench in front of Madden.

So far this season we have been competitive in every game we’ve played. The result doesn’t matter as much to me as much as finally having a team that is a serious chance to beat any other team on its day. Spent too many years knowing before kick off that wasn’t the case. The club has finally...

Difference running as a ball playing 13 is straight of the dummy half where as a 6/7 he receives it from the ball playing 13 wider of the ruck. Just my observation of it. I did like the idea of having latu coming on and playing that 13 role later in the game, but now that can’t happen for this...

Game 1 = Loss Game 2 = ?

I would say if that is the team running out this week that we are at full strength, where the raiders have a few players missing, playing at L.O is a bonus. So Yes I’m confident A win here will show everyone we are not the same team as years before.

I see it differently Jedi A.D strength is his running game not his ball playing.

Agree he should be dropped, Not because he needs a rest, Drop him because he is not our best option at the moment. Plenty of players have had stints in ressies before and came back a better player.

What about who replaces him has a blinder this weekend ? Just drop him because you promised Maka he would be back. Not something I would suggest would go down well for team harmony.

Hope you got on, Can’t believe how consistent Jigsaw has become,

💯 The ruck was slowed down a lot more last weekend compared to previous fortnight.

I don’t see it helping our defence having Madden & Luai started as our half’s pairing especially if then A.D moved to centre. Luai & A.D trained all off season as our starting half’s so can’t see benji changing them. I would drop the young Maka to reserve grade and see how he responds. Has To’a...

Hey BWG After last week Souths getting an exemption for Dufty to play I don’t think anyone should now be denied a request.

I’ve just stopped playing social tennis (mixed doubles) and taken up pickleball Mixed doubles as well less running than tennis but my joints are feeling it, nothing to do with my age at all 👴

Where are our stats guys ? How many tries have left side wingers scored this year compared to right side wingers ?
