TEAM LIST Team List Vs Parramatta (Round 2)

[Tigerdazz2]

Who would you bring Bird on for? And when? And playing what role?

Does anyone agree he looked a bit lost last week? Played good minutes but I didn't really see him.

Thoughts?

Apart from giving away a penalty and going on report, he was basically invisible.

Not happy about the hot day predicted jr that can cause headaches in defense, there should be 20 minutes then drink breaks you would think.

There's enough time to reschedule it, too bad if Cannel nine wants it played at 4.pm......kick it back 3 or 4 hrs!!
Player safety should come before media profits.

Some of the early games last season on Sunday were played at 6.15pm the weather forecasts get heat right most of the time there has been plenty of time to reschedule.

Same as this year! Bulldogs and Titans on at 6.15 this week

Twal has one of, if not the best effective tackle ratio in the club. The man is a machine & against Newcastle made good metres busting tackles & even getting off the odd offload.

Yep, I want Twal starting at prop though. There's nothing in his play that means he fits the lock role. I would prefer we had a faster more creative option at lock, we're too slow and clunky. Twal and May at prop with bird and fainu sharing the lock spot.

 

[watersider]

The bloke in the bar guys reckon it’s May that is more our lock and Twal plays the prop your suggesting.
Though it’s funny, Twal actually set up our only try with his offload inside the 20.

Yeah, I just think he's a solid workmanlike prop, but a very limited lock. No passing game or speed or game awareness. There's nothing in that offload that led to the try that is opened up by him playing lock, were essentially playing three props when he's in the 13. Our go forward and defense isn't better when we play three props, so I don't see why we persist with it.

Pretty even match up!

 

[hank37w]

I can't remember last time I thought we looked better than the opposition in 10 out of 17 spots.

Scary. Definite loss haha

I was reasonably confident until the weather forecast of 35-36 degrees.

If our tackles don't stick and we have to rely on a scrambling defence then there is no way we can go for the 80 minutes, good chance that we beat ourselves.

From those stats, it's pretty obvious that we shouldn't offer Galvin more than 12 million on a 10 year contract. 🤣

Bounce Back factor !
Seems 2 teams that got totally thrashed in round 1
Eg Warriors and Roosters bounce back big time vs Manly and Penrith
Another team that got thrashed was Parramatta and in their defence I think the Storm would have put many teams to the sword
Its a Parra home game .So its a little scary !
If we go anywhere near last weeks 50 missed tackles we will be in trouble
I do expect with our spine back together to score a few more tries
Tigers to win 30-18

 

[innsaneink]

We really need Bula to get involved in the attack especially close to their line with same and seyfarth running decoys,, hope bula and Jerome getting some connection going
