LIVE GAME Round 1 vs Knights

[Demps]

Why?

Doesn't have the mentality

 

[upthetigers]

Why?

Are you trying to kill the bloke?

 

[batboy]

Totally disagree we were monstered in the middle. That was not where the game was lost

You didn't see them rolling up into the red zone almost every set
- Then bombing it when they went wide and their coach continually screaming at them for it?
Then you didn't see us kicking from inside our own half for most of the game, Barely challenging the kick return...

It's on again a bit later if you wanna run it again.

You can't honestly tell me that combo looked like it worked?

Early days mate - these things take time

 

[king_sirro]

I said we played better mate than a 3 spoon team

No we didn't at all

Doesn't have the mentality

Disagree. He works hard, is fit and strong. Needs to be coached properly

 

[Wiz]

No need for mad panic at this time but there was a few worrying signs.
Compete lack of speed in the backs.
Seyfarth not an edge.
Knights were unlucky with refs calls. We could easily have lost that by 20.
Let’s see what happens next week.

Doesn't have the mentality

Doesn't wanna get dirty just yet.
We've got a couple of them.

Superstar lad

Any team with him in it will win a premiership

 

[batboy]

No we didn't at all

Got almost every call and plenty of the rub of the green,
they were terrible and we still never looked like winning.

 

[Wiz]

What do you think of starting with the Fainu bros, Sione and Samuela?

Force Seyfarth to the bench.

I think Sione can play anywhere in the pack.

I think it will happen next week if Seyfarth is suspended. Unless they play Bird there.

This was my initial thought as well however, when you look at our centres the offerings are slim, 0 line breaks by AD, SF and HM. At least JS, ST and HM ran a lot of metres. Halves are only as good as the platform the forwards lay and the quality of their outside backs. Our guys didn’t even run a line that looked like it was going to create a chance. We have no speed or strength in our centres.

Im no great fan of our centres but how can u possibly blame them? They received no ball at all and most certainly no quality ball.

Meanwhile I've been stuck in this damn car park for 25 minutes. Haven't moved a centremetre...

Agreed mate don’t know why our boys haven’t run a cut back line in years

I'm really liking what I'm seeing from Bird.

He looks slimmer than previous years.
I like his intensity.

Agree. Good trial form carried over to tonight.

 

[cqtiger]

On the bright side we’ll probably be 9th on Monday

Attack was good, missed 5 tackles.

Has class that you're not used to watching...
That last try was a bad read, but there's more good than bad
we're due a win with an old war horse - But don't speak too soon.

 

[weststigerman]

I think the 16 other clubs easily stop that Marzhew try after he had to run backwards to get it, but not us.

Turned out to be the winner.
