**live game feed** vs the Dragons

[Tim Sheens]

Just watching the game again and jeez that tackle in the air rule is stupid. I hope they get rid of it.

Its another rule that was well intentioned but they just didnt look at all of the ramifications of it so it is now basicaly a ridiculous rule.

Should it have been a penalty try? The Douehi one?

Should’ve been a sin bin at least it’s a penalty in a try scoring situation. Overall a stupid rule too easily abused, the defender has no choice but to tackle Doueihi there

I agree, they've made a grey area for no reason. I would have thought it had to be a penalty try. the bloke who made the illegal tackle was the bloke who held him up.

Yeah, like I stated in the live thread, how can the penalty try for Thompson's interference be awarded, yet a full on illegal tackle and not just contact not be?

 

[trentrunciman]

Didn't someone on this forum speculate we were close to signing D.Watene Z?

I firmly believe if we had DWZ we would be a top 4 side.

 

[Tim Sheens]

WHAT DID WE LEARN FROM ROUND 1
AD to fullback
MOMO to centre
CT to the wing JENNINGS to CC
IF WE GET GRANT
J REY to the bench (can cover backs & hooker)
WALTERS to the halves
FORWARDS OK need time to jel

Did anyone see STEFANO in Parramatta CC game WOW what a prospect

what i learnt was first half they were spreading the ball from side to side in attack and playing far too lateral.

Second half they controlled the ruck and punched through the middle. The backs backed the forwards and from memory most of the second half tries were near the middle.

I hope they learn from that.

Thought that was tactical from Maguire and an extension from last season, in tiring their line by moving the A defenders around and then taking them through middle.

Thommo back to the wing Doueihi to FB Jennings back to his KFC bucket

Whilst I agree, Jennings made well over 100m and Thompson was butt ordinary

C’mon mate ..he had one bad half but you’d prefer Jennings ?

I have been very critical of Nofos defence but he had a great game tonight. Thompson was hopeless tonight. On form you would have the wingers as Nofo and Jennings ... who doesn’t make mistakes.

100%. He was safe as houses on the wing and worked well in defence too. Thompson even missed 1v1 tackles on the front line and also bombed, basically, a sitter from DH.

At the time I remembered to make a point of it because it killed any momentum we had completely and coincided with the Dragons nearly pulling it out of the fire. He’s useless...

Adam was solid in his opportunities with supporting 2nd row/centre/wings. As far as I and I’m sure few of the staff (knowing Corey coughed up 12 alone) go - there’s no room for both.

There is if Jennings goes ( to kfc)

Alright alright alright guess I’m not getting a bucket or in the majority about this...

Think Thompson’s biting the hand that feeds tbh, with any more efforts in singularity like some of the ones tonight and I’ll be calling for his head!

One crap half mate ...
Your mate Doohey sucked in the 1st half if you want me to go into details ..
If Doohey goes to fullback I’m fine with that but if Thompson loses a wing gig to that sloth Jennings I’m done !

lol no left nut and done in the same week

You rate Jennings ?
I’m happy to sacrifice one nut for a good cause ?

No but I think Maguire does..

I would have Thompson on the wing..he had a shocker tonight but knows his way to the tryline at least..he scores both those TRIES ...

What he did do well was pressure Frizell into error ..without that we were done..

I think it’s cause Jennings is 23 and Thommo is 30. Also I thought Jennings played well today . He messed up 1 try , with it bucketing down . Thommo was so bad , a spell in reserve grade is his only option sorry . That was inexcusable.

Exactly, if Jennings played like Thompson there would be calls to tear up his contract, he gave them 12 points, cost us in attack, positional play was diabolical, sorry he needs to be dropped after that if we are fair dinkum

On the other side Jennings cost us scoring 2 TRIES so he goes too..?

I don’t think Jennings did cost 2 tries, no star either, but made good metres.
I want accountability and to make the 8, to do this Corey needs to be dropped, maybe Jennings, but maybe not.

That’s exactly my point

People are comparing apples and oranges here because Jennings let NO tries in. Jeez Louise

I thought Jennings was marking Ravalawa - and didn't Ravalawa score, that can't be right Jennings didn't let in any tries.

There was another play from Jennings that was poor when he caught a long kick with the chasers 20m away and looked to pass it off to Thompson ala Moltz instead of taking the metres like most wingers do..small thing maybe but showed lack of effort

Lack of effort? Seems like bit of bias m8

That is what happened - Fact - he's a bludger like his brother Michael.

Oh my god, Russell, you’re like a brick wall... not in the nice way. Go watch the replay

This wasn’t the ‘penalty’ try that everybody was up in arms for... which CT still couldn’t clean up. Don’t make me think less of you due to pride mate

More like, that’s your opinion - fact.

Michael is an all-star and former NSW rep.

Mate, all I see is a vendetta against Thommo - Everyone is entitled to an error by dropping the ball. The first error - he was put under pressure by Jennings and Garner not doing t heir job, but you are only blaming him.

Think less of me all you like - but I think you are being totally unfair.

I'll leave it there.

It’s no vendetta mate. Weight of consensus on the forum itself is he stifles our attack. I’ve only ever said it “seems” Madge isn’t willing to put him on a wing - he ain’t a fullback (takes one 2 know).

All I really see with these repeated comments from you flowing into the next couple days is a real soft spot for Thommo in ur heart. Me too.

I wanna make the finals though.

Me too, no soft spot at all, just trying to be fair, not trying to defend any mistakes he made apart from the penalty try.

I want AD as the full back, and Thomo on the wing.

If we want to make the finals I want that current bludger on the wing out of Tigers colours all together. Then we may have a shot.

Somehow I don't think playing finals or not is going to come down to the selection of a winger..i dunno..

Its another rule that was well intentioned but they just didnt look at all of the ramifications of it so it is now basicaly a ridiculous rule.

Should it have been a penalty try? The Douehi one?

In my mind it was not a penalty try but the ridiculous rule that has been brought in this year could potentialy allow a referee to give one.The rule is crazy and should be removed asap

Somehow I don't think playing finals or not is going to come down to the selection of a winger..i dunno..

Having him there Geo is like going swimming with 10 bricks tied to your waist.

That’s pretty slack, considering we ALL saw him nearly drag 4 dragons deadweight over the line.

He’s simply missing confidence (but not heart)

Meanwhile CT, God love him, missing a few inch
