LIVE GAME Round 2 versus Eels

[bptiger 0]

I think that culture shows with Royce Hunt, a player often talked about as being lazy, chasing a line break in the last minutes of a game where it was 37 degrees

Seeing him save a try by keeping up with Lomax and Samrani was terrific. Benji should be playing that in repeat all week at training

That was my stand out moment in the game seconds left game won and he runs 60 meters keeping up with a outside back , u can’t get a better culture than that , loved his coming of the fence was great to watch

Doueihi has a cracking touch finder 30/40m gains every time. Used to shit me to no end when the team used to earn a penalty only for Brooks to kick it 10m up field and into the stands smh

yeah, K . . . I usually look at the touchie's standing position. They've seen 45 billion kicks for touch, and generally know where the ball's going across the line. They usually stand within a couple of metres of the mark, to save time I guess.
One of AD's kicks sent the touchie back like 30 metres !!!!
I just wish he'd bring back his Middle eastern Burton special floater !!!!

When I got there early and in the Cumberland club lower level I noticed Hodgo at the bar chatting
What role does he have at the Tigers ?
Not game to walk 5 paces to ask him? Might have offended as I should already know
Able to be almost on the field saw Douehi up close .Hes a big tall guy
Saw Luai throwing a ball around in shorts and bare feet and Galvin spinning ball on the tip of his finger like a Harlem Globetrotter
Benji chatting with Joey
All this about 2.30 pm
Thing is they all looked really relaxed a happy crew !

Shout out to our recruitment
Terrell May a superfit non stop workaholic and
Royce Hunt a really powerful off the back fence runner and his chase in last couple of minutes which stopped the right winger offloading to his inside man was really special
Cant believe how dumb Roosters and Sharks were letting those 2 go

Love that run off the back fence, but I cringe every time expecting the ball to be knocked on.

Benji & Richo get an A+ for recruitment for 2025. If they parlay that into at least an A in 2026 then I think the goal of top 4 next year becomes pretty realistic.

Just bought my tickets for the rematch on Easter Monday.

I noticed that the strong sides tend to recruit less and train harder. Ofcourse we still need to recruit.. But I would prefer a good, mobile 2RF along with maybe Tyrone May.

It's that training that's going to make a difference. Which is a good sign as we have seen some of our fringe graders like Toa, Naden and especially AD rise.

Would've put the wind up that winger seeing big Roycey coming for him!

What have you seen in Tyrone May that makes you want to sign him?

Hodgo is attacking coach
J- Mo defense

Oh my God! don't remind me i swear we went backwards from our own 20m once

We did. My memory is from the 40 though so it might of been on more then 1 occasion.

Have to agree on Tyrone our strike rate from the UK is 0/2, not popular on here but I would take Matterson for the rest of the year if he was available, big body that would plug the right side 2RF spot we desperately crave.
