LIVE GAME *SPOILERS* Round 2 vs Raiders

[Leck]

Olam will come in at the expense of Toa. Having Olam today would make a huge difference.

Olam is already proving that he will be just another 'Justin come lately'.

This is Benji's first recruiting mistake, but it wont be his last.

Maybe I'm being too harsh but I didn't rate Sullivan when we signed and I still think we have got it wrong ....get fit and up to speed soon Latu or put Sezer out there

 

[weststigerman]

%38 posession & 7-3 penalties/ruck infringements
we need 2 keep our hands on the ball, kick early...

We will never get possession until we can control the ruck and stop the other team scoring.

 

[Demps]

You present as a woman, guess how you play?

Time to get the clippers out

 

[old_man_tiger]

I think one thing that's definitely better is the creativity. It won't matter if we are chasing 40 every week, which looks likely at this point

Sums it up really.

I think the positives are the young fellas aren't overawed and we have a few backs that I think could help like lobb naden etc
Bad news is we are still gentle giants and never sit the opp on their arse. Sad that olam is the only bloke that hits defensively

Fainu appeared to be making himself known to the Raiders' forwards. I like his attitude.

 

[Fraze23]

If I was Benji I'd hook Sullivan. Sezer to start next week and TDS or Simpkin on the bench.

Yeah, usually ‘effective immediately’ signings shouldn’t arrive at the club broken.

Like Tino for qld

Still shaking my head at the Seyfarth fans .....he tries his ass off but he is pissweek

24 missed tackles in first 40min is hurting us.

 

[Tim Sheens]

12-24 with two of their tries coming from referee blunders. Hard enough without this peanut.

Boys not doing themselves any favours, but they did really well to get back into it after being exhausted by a long lack of possession early on, only to be denied more by the officials.

Sullivan did poorly, though either Staines or Toa should have been on that sideline instead of him for a restart.

 

[Winston Churchill]

Starts from Klemmar and Stefano. Leaned down, no aggression or speed. Papalii, Bateman (dont get me started on the ranga). Sullivan, Toa, Stains useless as well


Galvin, api and couple bench forwards only positive.

Both useless.



Klemmer looks to have bulked up in the off season.

 

[Vicious]

Very good first 40mins of NRL from Galvin,
Not perfect, but still probably our best performed players far.
Bula has been good too and some strong carries from Stef and our bench, but the overall line speed and lack of aggression when defending is a massive problem.

 

[Stevec]

Our right edge is shocking
Seyfarth was in run on side played 17 mins for 0 runs 0 metres and 3 missed tackles how come its takes you whole pre season to work out he's a reserve grader Benji ?
I assume you hooked him
Thought Sezer was to be our half back .Is this reshuffle just to get the kid a game If you want to persist with the 18yr old hook Sullivan he's had a shocker
And to you the weak ref forget Ricky is watching you .Sometimes when Raiders lose the ball its just that ! But no if they lose the ball you give them a penalty or the ball back
Gough you are Weak

Sums it up really.

Players in motion is a huge problem for us and has been for years. We struggle to score points because our attack is so easy to read. There's no viable running options off the halves, which makes defending incredibly easy.

Nail on the head, the SG Ball side has better structure in attack than first grade.

 

[Tucker]

That's what's killed us. Down 14 0 after 14 mins and we'd only touched the ball twice.

all the missed tackles didnt help either

Fainu appeared to be making himself known to the Raiders' forwards. I like his attitude.

Jeez I wish he had both his brothers out there with him instead of the imposters that are out there… Seyfarth, Toa, I’m looking at you… and Sullivan has to have a bloody go FFS!

He didn't pick himself.
