LIVE GAME Round 3 vs Dolphins

[ATown]

Anyone who’s running the narrative that we win because they lost by the way , or “we are going to lose against the top teams” , needs to have a look at that first half . We were out played by a long way , and they completed at a high standard and took their chances well . Apart from that 1 try , that should have been called back anyway because of the error , I didn’t feel that the dolphins left points on the board , and threatened the whole first 60 mins .
We won that game with fitness , and constant pressure in the middle third .
The dolphins did not lose that game . IMO we won that game in the off season .

Totally agree. if you can’t enjoy a comeback win like that, then just give it up.

fugly is fugly is still a win n somehow much better ,we b on the improve

 

[ATown]

Im really stoked with that win. We have been losing games like that for years. This team looks like they can find ways to win even when not at their best. Lots of improvement left in them too

Yep spot on comment. This is the exact sort of game we haven’t been able to find a way to win for years.

NRL news 2025 | Wests Tigers vs Dolphins result, video, highlights; Jeral Skelton injury; Api Koroisau try; Sunia Turuva double

They are saying "serious injury".....really hope that's just for the clicks.

 

[ATown]

He had good hands twice to set up Turuva, defended well and got through work.

He wasn’t really given ball in good running situations.

He had a solid game but not spectacular.

Agreed. If that’s now Toa’s solid games and we get games like last week every few weeks, I’d be delighted.

It's a hamstring for Skelton so he'll definitely miss a few weeks.

Dolphins first try he just flew up into no man's land and caused the try

Really good win today forumers,the team will hopefully get better as the season progresses .
I still think Luai and Galvin need to sort out the playmaking calls,they appeared to be a little uncertain at times but it will come as the team gels a lot more...

 

[ATown]

It took Newcastle 51 minutes to score in week 1
It took Parra 79 minutes to score in week 2
Even though Dolphins scored 3 in the first 22 minutes, the boys went 58 minutes without letting them score again.

Great periods of concentration, riding your luck and defensive mindset in each game.

That’s three in a row of not conceding for one of the halves.

He didn’t cause that try. It looked bad but we were already completely shot by that point. They would have scored no matter what decision he made.

id rather Faataape in then Toa

Agree. As someone else said, at least he committed to an attacker when some others take no one.

 

[Merlot]

nit pick - this team is fighting - bum spanked in a week or 2 ? bounce back

Then give yourself an upper cut because you know absolutely nothing about footy

I'm liking the forum tipping comp 😂

I did lol 😆 😅 🙃 🤣

Bloody Newcastle game we should have won, we should be 3 - 0.

Yeah, true but that happens in every game. Centres can’t make the right call each time.

If he sets up or scores more than he lets in every week I’m happy!
