Mate ..did you watch the game against the Dragons? They got monstered ,,. Physically they were dominated

Did you notice the way we just played Into the dragons hands by trying to play it on the forwards . We had no kicking game and stopped moving the ball around to tire out their big forwards

Running the ball at or near top speed is the key.
Not many are willing to do it as the impact when being tackled is far greater, but the top echelon of players such as Fisher-Harris and JWH as you have mentioned and the likes of Reece Walsh, Dylan Edwards, Brian To’o are all players who almost always hit top speed quickly when running the ball.
Young Heath Mason is a player who demonstrates this trait, hence the reason I think he is one of our better up and coming players.

You need a lot of fast twitch muscle fibres to be explosive. It’s very hard to increase your explosiveness, you tend to either have it or not. Fast twitch plus size/weight equals power and a damaging ball runner in NRL. JFH and Leniu have good fast twitch for big men, hence they are very good.

Hence they play for Roosters, nudge nudge wink wink

Looks like it got a few bites though, as intended.

Yeah but it's a stupid post.

Just watching Manly v Saints.
Strange watching Brooks, Simpkin, Talau, Brown, Liddell and Leilua all on the field at the one time. Like a Tigers reunion.

Funny thing is they are not good enough for the tigers but our for other teams well above us

Really love Richo. If only he had have come on board earlier we could have avoided a lot of this rubbish.

They are all a average players though. Both sides have game changers to compliment the average.

It is. Imagine actually not picking up that it was a pisstake though?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Lucky we don't have any average players...TF

But you knew straight away from the first few words

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

I doubt that....

 

[Moh]

That statement from Richo is what I've longed for.

We are in good hands. If Richo can't fix this, no one can.

I was at my 4th children’s party for the weekend and looked at the phone and saw that. Out of shear emotional despair I took a bite. I was down and out and couldn’t resist the dangling carrot. Whoever posted it I would say it would be fair to jab them in the nose given the circumstances!

Luai brilliant half for the Panthers. He appears to love to be the dominant half with Cleary out. Big signing for WTs.

Mate .. what question?

I made a statement that I am tired of having undersized players and evidenced it with last weeks debacle …

I don’t want another undersized forward ,.. just my opinion ,,..you are entitled to yours

Undersized players have to have that extra little something to their games just to be able to compete. There's room for one or two of them, but have too many at the same time and you get overrun by bigger teams eventually.
