LIVE GAME Round 6 v Knights

[Spacecub]

I don’t agree.
Latu 7, Luai 6, Galvin 3, Doueihi 5.
Luai is not a 7 and Galvins not a 6.
We can’t fix the attack until we fix this.

I'd like to see that next week with Skelton now gone, but unfortunately Marshall will bring back that flog fratappe

No he won't? He picked Laulilii over him last week, and Naden is an option to play there too

I can guarantee you Faatape won't be playing wing.

Benji must have told Galvin to pull his head in for the opening 20 cos he was no where to be seen. Then as soon as we started to gain field position, he was more active but made some poor decisions.

Theyve had a bye dont forget

Theyve leaked on avg 22 points per game their last three matches

A really bad defence is Around 28-30 mate . The scoreboard pressure their attack is putting them under wouldn’t be helping either .
I was just saying they have good defensive systems that generally work and are hard to break down . It’s in reference to the jumping at shadows that our attack is bad . We scored 4 tries should have been 5 . If you can’t win a footy game on the back of 20 points , usually 24-30 then there’s bigger issues.

Id really like to see us fight a bit more to get a quicker ptb

Wether its conserving energy im not sure but we wont egt any 6 agains just taking our time as slow as we do playing the ball...its contributing to the clunky attack imo with defenses in our grill

Well I know it won’t be Staines, he must have offended the coach.

Galvin annoyed me numerous times today ...but the play that drove me insane was when he took the quick tap just after the sin bin
Slow it down .....play the clock.....kick for touch and build pressure
His footy brain at times ......not smart

I really think it's embarrassing for any professional club to bring back a player after injury and then lose him to the same injury. It's not bad luck, it's really poor management.

Hope your right JC

Kinda like allowing Bula to carry the log in the boot camp following a shoulder recon which led to him missing Round 1?

Shouldve been 7 tries...but as someone else mentioned there still seems to be a bit of confusion between the 9,7, 6....we carved up their left edge in the first half, we seemed to go away from that in the 2nd

But gimmee winning ugly over losing pretty, gritty gutsy ie: last week, any day

 

[Lestronge]

I feel like a lot of the Galvin hate is people doing mental prep because they think he’s leaving . Whilst I thought he was at times selfish today , I have to remember that that’s how you want your 6 to play .
I’ve been critical of Galvin as much as anyone ,mostly because I think if he chilled out it would relax the guys around him a bit , and just be patient .
I feel there’s heaps of potential in this team . A sit stands right now

Did we not take the two after the sin bin?

 

[tylermax]

We should have put 40 on Newcastle, who were hopeless.
Still a lot of work to do with our spine. Both Galvan and Bulla were very quiet in my view.

We have the second best 5/8 in the world and play him out of position to let a kid learn how to play the game for other team’s benefit.
Our attack has a lot of points in it if used correctly.
Galvin gets in the road and kills it far more often than not.

How bad were Newcastle? At our very worst I don’t think we dropped the pill like that.

No the penalty for the leg lift ....just our side of the half way

 

[GCfan]

Great to get the win but we were poor imo. A good team puts 40+ on Newcastle with the mistakes they were making.

Thing is we made close to as many errors. I think our saving grace was ours were not all in our red zone like Newies

 

[69tiger]

I think we give our defense a wrap and move on. If our attitude in defense is good, points will come

Totally agree a wins a win😊

 

[Odessa]

Agree has all the talent you can’t coach. Benji has to run the attack via Luai and Bula more often. Bula is electric and improved his passing game tremendously. Luai is deferring to a true half back but he’s better taking the line on.

Also a few players said they missed Luai talk during the Broncos game

A couple said he doesn't shut up on the field telling his teammates what to do
