PM 13 V PNG

[happy_tiger]

What a good try.
Aussie backs, including Galvin gave up on the chase then and when the ball bounced backwards, only PNG players were there.

His chase was Doueihiesque .....glad to see his experience is rubbing off on juniors ...

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Brooks changed the tide.

 

[Harvey]

Former Tiger Dudley Dotoi has been really impressive

Yes. He looked good. Better than most our current outside backs

 

[Moh]

Was Wishart named to play prop ??

 

[Buttface]

Brad fittler selection lottery. Wishart should of been the first picked.

Why have Brooks there anyway?

Mcentyre front row? Jeez going to be a few bruised players

He’s been playing FR for the cows.

 

[Masterton]

So, what was the verdict on Hetherington when he got longer minutes for change?

 

[weststigerman]

Overseas so didn’t see the game. Why did Galvin only get 26 minutes? Any injury?

They played in 4/20 minute quarters mate. All 3 halves
got game time but Brooksy had a really good quarter
and stayed on for longer. Foggarty too, he was the
only one playing 7 pretty much. Enjoy your trip away

 

[innsaneink]

Seemed.like Galvin was on longer than 26 mins

 

[Needaname]

Wishart is such a good lil player. Used 2 love watching
his old man rod play for Steelers and the blues

A consistent feature in all Melbourne teams; that one player that fills any position. Melbourne will be glad they can add prop to his resume.

 

[Needaname]

Yeah Keep watching Galvin will be back on in the 2nd and step it up.

To be fair he was much better when he came back on. Also played on the right where he handled the defence well enough.
Just my opinion though but I think Latu has a big role to play next year. I’m not sold Galvin is a lock in the 6.

 

[Needaname]

Seemed.like Galvin was on longer than 26 mins

I think he was. He was on for 20 mins in the first half alone.

 

[Needaname]

Former Tiger Dudley Dotoi has been really impressive

Use the word Tiger loosely. He what had half a season with us before heading home homesick?

 

[Needaname]

Kobe Hetherington actually reminds me of Mark O'neil. Similar build and running style.

Imagine if the Tigers signed, him, Bullemor and Tallis. What a bench!

 

[happy_tiger]

Seemed.like Galvin was on longer than 26 mins

I would gave thought closer to 40 to 45 myself

 

[Bones]

I would gave thought closer to 40 to 45 myself

58 minutes according to the nrl app

Brooks and Liddle sparking the attack as PMG tire

Always liked Liddle. Don’t think we gave him a fair go.

 

[Buttface]

Always liked Liddle. Don’t think we gave him a fair go.

Better than Simplekin. But another one that was well over hyped, unlucky with injuries though.

He shouldn’t be.
I thought he was way off the pace yesterday.
When Brooks came on, the attack was sparked.
The Kumuls had a lot of success attacking our right as well.
I really hope we aren’t pigheaded on this issue. Lachie is good enough to play several positions for us.

I hope Gal is not pigheaded about playing other positions too.
