LIVE GAME Round 16 v Raiders

[Tucker]

I just [This word has been automatically removed]ing hope to [This word has been automatically removed] his hamstring woes are done and dusted. Please please please give me latu minimum 20 games a year please.. He is an incredible talent and that rumour of us turning him into a 13 makes me want to throw up and burn the CoE down. He is a generational half, imo will be up there will Katoa in 5 years.

Of course that’s true.
It was true last year as well, but there was no convincing anyone.
Even if Galvin stayed with us, the correct decision is he is moved to fit Latu into the halves.

We had plenty of chances to win, but yes bula was offside at the end, but on the hair pull savage was in front of the kicker and tackled Skelton why don’t they review that, always review ours the whole way

 

[Bigscreentv]

No awareness of moments as usual. Game on the line, Twal strolls into the defence & looks astonished at the easy 1 on 1 strip. He's not the only one, but some of these guys have been in this side for years and we keep getting the same results.

Agree - I’d be looking to play Kit Laulili off the bench a bit with the intention of playing him lock next year. He’s been great in reserve grade.

 

[Vicious]

Ironically either kit or TDS for 10 minutes could have changed the game. A lot of poor moments from nearly everyone.

Exactly our coach is an imbecile and that’s putting it nicely.

Seyfarth 2 runs for 17 meters 👏

yet was involved in our only 2 tries

 

[Muffstar]

The team can cover 1 maybe 2 but 4 in one squad it's just impossible

Twal, Mason for sure should be playing reserve grade. Douhie offers nothing apart from goal kicking.

 

[weststigerman]

Haha, no - it’s the sports science department telling Benji that it’s in his best interest to not play him more than that or risk further injury.

Know of any other clubs playing anyone restricted minutes in first grade?

 

[WswWt]

Bula was horrendous tonight.

Mhmm I thought he was okay. Not horrendous

Maybe we shouldn’t be challenging so early in the game. It’s cost us 2 weeks in a row.

 

[Tim Sheens]

That's deadset nitpicking like the hairpull that Casey badger is a corrupt cheat

A few poor decisions to choose from, but that was a blatant offside.

 

[cone]

Less.

I mean more they’ll be the top 2 halves, cleary will still be around id assume but yes if he stays injury free more like 2-3 years

 

[Illek]

They should never have had a challenge…the raiders first challenge should never been given. Was a ridiculous call since it was kicked into api on the ground.

I hate to say it, but both reviews were correct. There was absolutely no need for Skelton to pull his hair. And on the second challenge Bula was offside and Weekes knocked it back anyway. The howler was the missed 40/20 in the first half.

Why didn't they at least look at the bula no try, they normally do except for the tigers

100% he was gonna go into the forwards and that’s probably a big reason why he left. Latu is special and can turn this club around

 

[liltiger]

Tbf according to the forum Latu is on restricted minutes so i dont think they had a choice, but yes after the second missed tackle try he should’ve come off for Latu

Could have thrown bird in to shore things up more. But I would have ended the game with Latu 7. Luai 6. Api 13 Dasilva 9. We could have carved them right through the middle, they were gassed in the last 10 minutes.

 

[Bigscreentv]

All clubs do it, especially when there’s a history of hamstring injuries. In fact, all sports do it.

 

[weststigerman]

I was begging him to bring TDS on for Twal or Bird for the last 10 minutes.

 

[tiger_one]

It's all over, but did the Stuart try come off a forward pass?

 

[Tucker]

Incorrect.

In the first half, they had 3 missed tackles, we had 7. Their scramble was also outstanding. I made that comment at half time.

That blew right out in the second.

lol BS.
I checked the stats at halftime. They had more missed tackles and more ineffective.
It was a gutsy win by them as they didn’t play well.
Had they played last weekend, we would have rolled them.

 

[TT 01]

I think Sione Fainu is our lock - I’d play May, Pole and Twal as the props. Fainu bring a little something different.
Once KPP comes the Seyfarth can play as a middle too
