Team v Souths

[Harvey]

I don't care who they pick honestly. I'll set a reminder to pick up dog poo during the game, more enjoyable and more useful.

Genius. Can you run for the WT board, CEO, something.

Please no. We have enough people that can seek out and collect crap

I'll be on the road back from Tamworth at that time thank God

Doesn’t matter, they’ll get flogged

Doesn’t matter, they’ll get flogged

Yep, not really important. I’d be careful about who I look to blood though. I wouldn’t be giving a kid like Simpkin a run.

 

[TillLindemann]

I bet Benji can't wait for next week

Why's that?

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

1- Laurie
2- Nofoaluma
3- Roberts
4- Mbye
5- Talau
6- Doueihi
7- Madden

13- Ofahengaue
12- Leilua
11- Garner
10- Tamou
9- Liddle
8- Twal

14- Simpkin
15- Utoikamanu
16- Musgrove
17- Simpkins

Madges use of props has been garbage. Tamou played 27 mins... Twal needs to go back into prop rotation.

Give Madden a go. The year is gone and he can't do any worse. Don't care what anyone says about Mbye, he's probably the best we got in the centres which is a really sad indictment.

 

[Speed2burn]

First game in years I’ll miss because of a friends birthday and I couldn’t even care less. Won’t even bother checking live updates

Agree in this team I wouldn't blood simpkin or Jock Madden at the moment
souths will beat us by plenty regardless who we put on the paddock

I honestly don’t understand why you blokes want brooks dropped every game? He’s literally leading the comp in try assists.
His stats for today’s game, we where also losing 28-6 at one stage.
7 runs (34m)
15 tackles (0 missed)
4 tackle busts
2 off loads
1 line break assist
2 try assists
1 error (the drop off the kick-off)

The fact some of you are blaming him just shows you have no clue about the game, we could loose by 60 next week and the blame will will still be brooks.

Our defence cost us today not brooks.

That being said I don’t really understand the way we are using our bench, mikaele not getting much game time and tamou only 27mins today? Was he hooked?

I have this feeling we might see Amone in the lineup this week. Idk if Madge will drop the captain though.

Also what do we do with Joey? Unfortunately got concussed today and would be tough to drop him. (Big risk with joey) he could cost us points down his end next week or he could literally come out play the house down. Maybe even take on latrell.

I have no answers when it comes to defence. Idk what’s wrong. Something needs to happen or we are getting flogged. But then again we are west’s tigers, we lose against the shit teams and come out playing a great game and somehow almost beating a top team.

Well said ! I wish others could see the obvious.

 

[sleeve]

Our attack is pretty bad,but it’s not what’s losing us games.
We have the worst defence I’ve ever seen from any team in my 25 years of watching rugby league.
Started Halfway through the 2020 season.
We have zero line speed.
He absolutely cops it on here,but Garner is the only player in our squad who puts has any sting in defence.
I’m not sure who to pick ,like others I’m happy to give some young blokes a crack.They can’t be that much worse.

Truer words never spoke ! (was that Shakespear ? )

 

[BD_Benny]

He has a go. I give him that. Has a high work rate but his bloody kicks annoy the bejeezus out of me. Useless midfield kicks, kicks in behind that just hand the ball over to opposition. Run it on the 5th do something different. He needs Help. Doehi, Liddle, Laurie cant kick so I'd bring in Madden at 6. Might not be the biggest half pairing but im desperate. Throw Doehi in the Centres.

Liddle unlucky to miss out 57 tackles and 1 missed but Jake more talented. Alternate them.

 

[Tigerbuck63]

who really cares after last weekend.
COACH is an old pretender and Players know it.
Nofo should have been dropped after last game.

Brooks is a scapegoat. Liddle is to apparently.

Awfoaluma gets a pass. Yuck

 

[Telltails]

Mass droppings never work and you have to have players coming in that are actually capable of being better than the players who they are replacing.
Nofo had a poor game but dropping him this week would create drama we don't need and in all likelihood won't make a difference to the result in game we have buckleys of winning.
