**Live game feed** vs the Sharks

As much as I love what he has done for the club over his career, I’d very much like to see Zane Musgrove or MCK replace Chris Lawrence in round 4 - he doesn’t offer much at all tbh

Totally disagree.

Fair call, do you see Lawrence offering more than either one of MCK and Musgrove

I see Rowdy offering more off the bench - this year than MCK. I would let him go personally.

See Musgrove as a Prop not a second rower, so it would get down to do you want a prop or a second rower on the bench.

With Lucy and Garner playing 80 min. every week - Rowdy will get little game time unless one of them injured.

Thought Jennings actually played tonight...put in the effort, took some hit ups.

Did I just say that.....

Wow are you feeling okay? ?

Credit where credit is due. Only a small amount but happy to give it.

That’s good mate - there’s plenty who refuse to give credit to players they aren’t a fan of. Hopefully Jennings can back it up next week

@Russell , depends if attack or defence is the priority , if it's defence Rowdy , if it's attack MCK

Attack wise MCK can create a lot with his speed and footwork late in halves

This might sound crazy , but I'd tend to use MCK v the Roosters ,Manly ,Storm etc ...sides that don't get cracked easily by conventional means

But if he ends up having to play big minutes his defence wanes easily and quickly

I hope he can too - I hope he falls over the line at least three times every game.

He fell over the line twice last year against titans maybe he can do it again

I really think those who rush to blame nofo for any tries down his side lack a fundamental understanding of how defence works. The problems on the right side began on the edge far inside bj and nofo, where a 2 man overlap developed. This was exacerbated by the ability of Graham to run or kick, which made running out of the line to shut it down dangerous.

Also, cronulla were onto nofo running the ball out and cutting back inside. Either the 9 needs to run and engage the markers who the pass needs to be wider to get nofo outside the markers. I think it could be a key focus at training this week.

Let's go back a game
Contest for the bloody ball Nofoluma
How hard is it
How can a player in the NRL who is in a great position to catch the ball not even attempt to catch it
Don't make excuses for his defensive lapses
Opposition teams target Nofolumas wing for a reason
Nofoluma is great with the ball in hand but without it, it's completely another story
I would love to see the team stats with tries conceeded
Nofoluma's wing would have to be miles ahead with tries conceeded

Agreed, most of the time it is his wing, BUT....

It is not always his fault, most of the time it is the players closer to the ruck rather than the right outside centre and right winger.

I thought you would have picked that up.

Why, do you think he has not been dropped by three different coaches. They know.

Also , he’s on the right wing , which is the favoured side for most people . Ie. passing right to left . That surely has to play a part

Well I reckon I can only name about 23 players better than him last night

Wade Graham must be incredulous atm

 

[Tigers_Tale]

Was I the only one who was mystified how Johnson's 1st conversion went over ...from the angle it hit the cross bar and then where it landed

Thought the same. it seemed like the ball hit the crossbar, then the ball landed in front of the posts.

Marshall has again shown that he can win us games with his few 'crazy' moments, IMHO, he still has it and to paraphrase 'if you are good enough, you are young enough'! Arguably he is still within a few best attacking 5/8!

Did you love all the 2nd tackle negative or negigible metre gains ....that many times he steps inside ...get flogged and ends up going backwards because he has no momentum

Ah that ole chestnut...Yet he still makes the most metres of anyone in our team consistently..

189m last night...30m in front of everyone else..go figure

He was great. So was Brooks. It helps when you are getting good service and going forward but they still played great footy.

In the second half, Benji backed up three times for no result. In the next set he backed up Douehi's break to put the kick in and tackle Katoa in goal. It was a huge play in the context of the game. Douehi's game was great and his ability to beat the first attacker and unload is priceless.
