This is a massive ask

 

[Yossarian]

Nice to see Daine Laurie get an upgrade from park football to reserves for the reserves!

 

[Leich-a-tiger]

Good to see John Grant back from injury, though obviously highly unlikely to push for first grade this year

This is a massive ask

You're not wrong. That's a seriously lightweight side being trotted out by Balmain.

 

[Sabre]

Lots of apostrophes in that Newcastle side

So many forwards on the injury list right through the grades at the moment.

From memory Lalogafau was in the 2010 Magpies SG Ball side, may have been a bench forward and young Waugh is out of the Balmain Junior Rep system

Likiliki is giving us a good licking with his devastating running …Simona won't commit to him
Knights 32 - 22 with 20 minutes to go.....

Forgot about the game being broadcast on 2HHH, scoreline is very close but only a minute left and the Tigers need to score twice to win, looks like they will go down by 8 points.
Final score Knights 36 Tigers 28.

Simple errors with the ball in hand and some silly penalties were the difference

Thought Balmain may have been totally steamrolled in this game, glad they weren't, although they could definitely do with some extra size.

There were quite a few team changes

Cashmere & Moors were both due to get gametime but Cashmere pulled up sore and it was just Moors

Andy Fiagatusa made another appearance as well

John Grant played in the centres in place of the injured Jake Clarke, Tom Humble played 5/8 for Chisolm whose hand infection is still not right (though he and Hitchcox should be due back next game in a fortnight) Waters played half and Moors was starting lock.

Rhy Curren got players player, Simona made a fair few errors, Davis was good with the ball but his consistency in defence was pretty poor.

In the end Likiliki & Sau were the difference from where I was sitting along with the errors and penalties given away to give them a leg up.

Mounties in 2 weeks 6pm at Mount Pritchard is the next appearance

 

[jonny123]

does any1 know how any of the players went like grant, port or simona

 

[MacDougall]

On Fox right now. There are some good players in this Tigers side tbh. Linc Port has some quality to him. John Grant has been more impressive in this one that the last one I saw. He just seemed to get more involved and made a tackle break every time he ran it. Josh Davis has to be the most unlucky reserve grader ever. He is very good and just doesn't seem to be in anyone's plans. Tom Humble was so far above the quality of anyone else on the field though. If the bloke isn't a better option at five-eighth than Blake friggin' Ayshford then I'll give it away. If he can't make it into the NRL this year he should go to England because he would cut the ESL to pieces.
