TEAM LIST Round 3 vs. Bulldogs

[TrueTiger]

I'm no genius but it doesn't take Einstein to figure out you need to win the ruck to create overlaps out wide.

Yeah thats a great observation,but I will tell you a better one...when your on the attack make sure you have players in support on both sides of the ruck,running hard and calling for the ball,if the playmaker has any clue he will know who is running the right line or running straight for the gap and creating an overlap...its a team game and everyone should be looking to create space and converting opportunity into points...

but thats just me and Im an old dinasaur who played the game a long time ago,this formula worked back then and the game is still rugby league,hold the ball gain ground and use some smarts to out do the opposition......FAIR BUMP PLAY ON GENTLEMEN AND LADIES...

 

[TrueTiger]

why dont we worry about that if it happens

To be honest if Wakeham is on he can kick goals and so can Brooks...

Hope Staines carves up

We looked better in the 10 or so minutes he was at fullback.

Can’t wait

If you don’t have any other players in your Top 30 that can play a certain position (fullback, in this case), you can apply for an exemption for a player to be picked based on injury.

Or if you're the rorters you can just sign another player from another club!!!

We always struggle when we have a man advantage....might be better starting with 12. Lol

In all seriousness though, from your team you listed, I hope to see a few late changes this week to reflect a team close to yours.... At least Wakeham to 7 alongside Brooks in the 6 (Douiehi if fit goes to centre) and Bateman into the 17 somewhere. Not sure if Bula is defensively up to NRL just yet...would go Staines.

why take out matamua, kid deserves a place

 

[Halbrowne61]

To be honest if Wakeham is on he can kick goals and so can Brooks...

Except that Wakeham is much more accurate so he would be first choice imo, if he’s on the field. Then Brooks, and that’s about it.

Love that Pole is at lock. Why do every team need to emulate Yeo at the Panthers? Love hard running direct locks. Offloads, attack the markers. Pole should be starting because he has a crack every time. I'd say to Stains, follow the forwards through the middle. The dogs front row is ordinary.

I was stuffing around meant him to be 14 instead put in Pole's brother lol

 

[Tigerstigerstigers]

any word on Moses @Jedi_Tiger

Hopefully no one on the Dogs gets sin binned or sent off. We seem to struggle most against 12 men.

I've been somewhat reticent since Sunday; I think it just got too much for me and I want to take a break.

I don't wish for anyone to get hurt, but I have to confess I like the team far better without Laurie.

I am really hopeful Bula gets to play, because even if he is raw as I'd give him plenty of time to become what I don't think Laurie is: a good nrl full back.

I actually like To'a and have been disappointed with TT (and Stef) so far.

And hopefully if nothing else, Wakeham being named is the first sign Brooks' time as an untouchable is (finally) nearing an end. Yep, wishful thinking.

Injuries or not, at least there are changes. Thank God.

Could be the only morsel of pleasure I get this weekend, so I'm taking it now!
