Laurie was good hey Demps😁
OFFICIAL Alex Twal #206
- Thread starter Chris
- Start date
Looks like he's put some size on and is having a go at the Raiders.
Shame he couldn't do that here.

Charlie Murray chance to shine along with Latu. Both can cover hooker as well. IMO Latu should get his chance to start. If they want a bigger body to start I’d assume Seyfarth. Really depends on who they run out against
His heart was never here.
Canberra is his absolute last chance. Seems to have woken him up.
Did well behind good forwards
Laurie was the players player 2022 here and was brave behind a beaten squad on numerous occasions. He had one absolute shocker here against the Knights- I think and he wasn't alone - and some never got over it.
Never going to be elite but is a player who can be the next man up effectively.
Seems to be our only options....doesnt fill me with confidence at all
We saw some awe inspiring, never say die brickwall defence the other night....reports from the pod guys that are always at training was the defense work during last week was amped up significantly...we need more or this against Penrtih
Im not expecting a dub,,,,but I would hope we can get thru this game and come off with our heads high with another improved performance...no backwards steps from hereon in...weve had our mid season slump its in the rear view mirror
PS Id be bombing Alamoti all night he didnt look comfortable at times last night under the high ball

I didn't recall the players award, though certainly remember him being an integral member of the squad.
He may not have had his heart at WT, but he wasn't alone in that threepeat spoon era and not on too much coin.

Maybe have seyfarth just give it his all for 20 mins and then bring latu on for the next 60
That's what I would do too.
Just hope Latu can play 60 in the middle

could work though this is against penrith who are clearly the only team that can win it this year
i dont think ive seen a year where the gap from 1st to 2nd that is this wide i mean even without there origin players they still beat the warriors

To'o would be back
Their only weakness is still Talagi. We should try to run KPP outside Talagi, get McLean to come in and then offlaod to Bula.

We'd be down 30 nil after Penrith target him, get a roll on with multiple 6 agains due to the arm grabbing and post contact metres he gives up.
What has Seyfarth done to make you think he has anything to offer for any period of time.
If he retains his spot after being a major factor in all the Bulldogs' tries then all the talk of standards is out the window.
Murray, Geyer, Roberts Taupau-Moors, Broederlow, Luke Jack, Saukuru, Godinet are all better options.

Latu to 13, Geyer and Roberts or Murray.

I think he's woken up to himself that being a Penrith fan boy and wasting his career being happy to play the role of a benchie was not the way to go.
It looks like he's matured into a professional NRL player
I agree
Hes looked fantastic when playing for Canberra.
Looks committed.
Lots of talent in front of him at the Raiders too.
So hard to break into that team.

He has been good for the raiders. He tried putting a hit on Taumalolo and instantly regretted it lol
Warriors were without 2 of theirs also, but yes I know what you mean.
I’m thinking a couple of teams besides the Warriors might click into good consistent form towards the back end of the season to give Penrith more of a challenge. Don’t know which ones yet, but I think someone will.
