Is Daine Laurie out? why is he in Yamba when we play tomorrow?

He better start driving! He was there yesterday too hopefully just a quick visit and he heads back today ready for tomorrow's game lol

Unless it’s for personal reasons it looks kinda weird. Very important game in terms of our season

He was in the training photos and there's been no rumour of an injury so who knows. Sometimes the club will allow the players to go visit family and stuff if there's time

People saying players could be going into a bubble again so might be last chance to see their family for awhile

I think our team will improve coming into winter away from day games with the rules. We struggle against athletic teams. Wet weather or night games will benefit us.

Ash Taylor is out of this weeks match against the tigers

Is that good?

He cut us to pieces last year and is a match winner on his day.Late withdrawal of Tino and Fifita would assist us more???

thought Laurie picked up an ankle injury ?

Don’t think so. Like JC said he completed training this week so far and looks like most of the boys have been given 2 days off or so

cool good to know
 
Busting the line and gaining meters is great, so is drawing your defender, but you don't have to take the tackle before attemting to pass all the time.Now and again just pass the ball along the backs and give them a chance.
 
I'm most looking forward to seeing the players hopefully build on last weeks good performance and backing it up again tomorrow. If they turn up with the right attitude and not get too complacent we will get a result.

That’s not good for us

Tanah Boyd in ...worse than Brooks

We’ve let some average players carve us up over the years ... wouldn’t write him off



We got curved up by Ben Hampton already this season...... We made him look like Thurston

We’ve only put in back to back efforts once this year (Vs Knights then Eels). Fingers crossed but I can easily see a GC landslide if Fifita and Tino get a sniff of any weakness.

Eels game we were crap IMO. Any game you concede 36 points in should not be applauded. Our goal line defence I recall was really bad aswell

Looks like Daine Laurie is away for a funeral, I'm sure he'll be back tomorrow.

Hopefully, not sure what the protocols are with the nrl bubble.

I'm probably going to get flamed for this but I think last weekend we were flattered by an extremely poor Dragons performance. I'm not criticising the effort as I thought we tried hard, but our execution imo was pretty average.

It wasnt pretty but what Im encouraged by is that we did all the hard things right. Completion rates high, defence good, low missed tackles, field position good. In many ways last week was the exact embodiment of everything that Madge goes on with at the pressers. Completions, simple jobs, process....patience and it paid off.

I think if we can take that platform into our games, we will be competitive and can grow from that base.

I guess we’ll find out when the squad is cut down to 19 tonight

If he’s out, we’re pretty thin on options

Absolutely, as I said I thought the effort was good but I thought Saints were pretty horrible and they lost Lomax which didn't help them. Let's see how we go tomorrow, I hope the effort is the same.
