Wests Tigers Team v Melbourne

[PJ_]

Melbourne by 40 but I hope the refereeing is better than last week.

Do you know the real problem - that Tigers will probably tough out the game for about 30 mins, then concede 2 fatigue-related tries before half-time, go in to the break 18-4 down, concede another try after HT, rally again for 20 mins, then concede 4 tries in the last 20 to go down 46-12.

Or at least something similar to last week.

This ?
Might put some coin on that scoreline ?

our centres are going to be given a bath by their opposing numbers I think. as for their spine and then Grant off the bench, they are going to murder us. if we have a go and our forward pack stands up I won't be too annoyed with the impending 20+ margin. we're just not at their level yet.

Shame Munster didn't get a week.
Who's going to make brenko an immortal this week? Jet or talau?

You've summed us up under Maguire perfectly. This is our template game.

Can't say I'm a fan of four forwards on the bench. Modern game requires a hooker/utility on the bench to keep up with the speed of the game plus Liddle struggles to play 80 in the tough games. One of our forwards normally only plays 10 or 15 minutes anyway, makes all the sense in the world to give Simpkin a run.

Who fills in at 5/8 if MBye pulls out again? From what I could see, we have 4 forwards on the bench, and 4 more forwards 18 to 21.

 

[Muffstar]

Mbye probably wiĺl kick em if we score ANY...would like brooks to have a go again tho

Yeah I reckon it will be Brooks. Only problem is we need to score a try 🙂

Yeah good point. Assuming next man up is Madden??

Those two spills from Jacob last week should've automatically seen Simpkin brought back into the side IMO.
Understand we don't have the players to match theirs but would still like to see our team selections more fit for purpose.

I have posted about the thought process at Concord Atm or lack of ...forwards forwards everywhere ,this team has no strike at all...Maguire is a genius!

The clutchs best positon is at 6... we judt dont know it yet..wait for the 45m field goal to win it

I really hope moving forward into next season that the reserve grade backs are going to step up or are punted and replaced with some that can actually be promoted to first grade when needed .. the constant in and outs of the same players that are not producing when asked is becoming tiresome to say the least ..off season got some depth this season REALLY!

Try again Madge

Still whinging ?

Who would you have picked ?

Agreed. Not much else he can do. We really need a couple of good centres but other than that it isn't a bad side at all.

I would of thought Tuilagi has more to his game than Amone ..and would be ahead of him match fitness wise ,hard to break the bash and barge I suppose.
