LIVE GAME Live Game Discussion, vs Dragons - Rd 10 MAGIC ROUND *Spoilers*

[WesternSuburbsBoy]

So sick of seeing them run an unders ball man.
Zero creativity. No backline sweeps with weps
like tupou, bula, nofa & to'a. Completely un-
Inspired from brooks. Such lame options...
all he does is run sidewise, never straightens
up the line, it's infuriating to watch. We made
so many stupid errors and gave away pens,
lucky to win that one but I'll take it. Best on
ground Tupou, Bula and Nofa. I'll take that

Think you’re being a bit harsh on Brooks brah, thought he had a good game personally

 

[bigsiro]

Claim? It's his. Outplayed any other fullback at the club.

Hard agree.

 

[Demps]

@Demps can you please unlock the general magic round thread 🙏

Done.

 

[SeanT]

Jeez our attack is woeful.

Hate the under play with a vengeance. Why not just pass it because it does the same thing.

Wakeham never plays direct, he never runs the ball. Just does the stupid unders with the forwards.

If we play South's with our boring attack they will put 40 on us.

 

[Vicious]

A fighting win which was well deserved.
Joffa is not playing big minutes like he was last year, but he’s very dependable does not drop balls or miss tackles.
Keparoa is struggling as is Talau and Pole is a little bit hot and cold, but definitely needs to be in our top 17.
To’a is very under rated, Nofa back to somewhere near his best.
Brooks was above average without being brilliant and don’t forget it’s Sheens instruction to run the ball on the last, so we can’t blame the halves for that.

 

[upthetigers]

That last try saver, there was a 5-2 overlap. How did we stop that!!!

 

[bathursttiger1]

Gosh that was horrific. But 2 points!

If we could stop those stupid errors it would be a huge improvement.

Suli screwed it up, but we’ll take it

Please bro. Our backline play is non- existent.
Has been all year. He runs sideways, limits all
the space for his ballrunners, runs a stupid
short side play or passes an unders ball lol.
With good halves and our forwards playing
how they have been we shouldn't be getting
into scraps. We should have pumped them

 

[Tim Sheens]

Cowboys lose by three or more they are last

Who'd have thought they would be in this situation with the form they were in last year. Huge turnaround in form from them over ten rounds.

 

[Strider]

Nice

 

[Tucker]

They deserve to be last tbh.

Yes, they were supposed to be a contender this year.
They have been disgraceful.

 

[StarswithStripes]

Listening in from the UK, great win. Thanks Suli for throwing the flick and Bula for saving the try in the last minute. Back to back wins yeehah!

 

[bathursttiger1]

Must say...

Moses Suli is one of the worst players in the NRL

I know what Tena Tuiaki would have done with that play.

 

[Lukic]

Brooks' kicking game was good today but his play with the ball in hand was very poor. Also did well to get the ball on for our last try but that was more on Suli's diabolical decision to rush out and Tupou's miracle finish.

 

[loklok]

Brooks and Wakeham weren't the best in attack .but they both defended really well today

 

[bigsiro]

We won the game but geez call a spade a spade. We didn’t just win the premiership.

Brooks insipid hospital dumps to an inside flat footed forward is the hallmark of his crap career.
And repeatedly running that on the penultimate play of the set completely defines his lack of any ingenuity or play making ability.
The sad part is this was a bad game by any normal halfback standard, but a good game for him. He sucks.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Suli screwed it up, but we’ll take it

Tigers junior …. Loyalty play

Thought his running game was pretty good & his kicking game was on point. All of their tries were off errors that he didn’t have anything to do with. Definitely don’t want him re-signed but since that 2nd half in the parra game he’s been pretty good imo

 

[tigertragic]

Why do we do one out hit ups on the 5th tackle? No imagination whatsoever.
Infuriating

Just remember we are an attacking team this year under sheens/benji 🤦‍♂️
