Little glimpse of life after Thurston tonight.

Just got home now from the game all I can say is Fafita what a player

Best forward in the game by quite a bit. Hated also, which is standard. He ripped the Cowboys defence to shreds all night, regardless of his errors.

 

[THE CHAMP]

yep fafita is up there with gillete as the best forwards in the game only difference is fafita makes heaps more mistakes, plays a lot less minutes and makes less tackles.

 

[shaggs]

The other difference is that Gillette doesn't have the game changing ability of Fifita. Sure he doesn't make as many mistakes but he won't change a game.

Yeah ok CHAMP. lol.

 

[BWNB]

Gillete didn't score the winning try in the gf either. Anyway...

 

[McLovin]

Ill bite..

Gillette lol .. would be a decent bench forward at Cronulla.

 

[carcharias]

Another cunhouse performance by my mob

Still
Enough to beat a shit team once again.

Gillette? Lol that's a good one. The two best forwards were on the park tonight - Fifita & Taumalolo.

One thing with Fifita is the mistakes, when he popped that offload I was so sure it was gonna cause a knock on and wanted him to hold onto it instead. Thankfully it didn't and it paid off. He does silly things but when he's on, he's on.

He does have some errors, though I think he has improved in that regard the last 18 months, and the good vastly outweighs the bad.

A bit like a defensive heavy hitter, who is likely to sometimes give away a penalty from sailing close to the wind, Fifita tries to play so up tempo, and looks for offloads all the time, that sometimes it bites us. But you have to take the good with the bad with a player that tries to always dominate like that, and when it is on, he has the most ability to turn the game of any prop in the world.

Gillette is a fantastic player, but not at all like Fifita. Comparing Gillette to Lewis, Graham or Gallen would be more appropriate, and I reckon Flanagan would have a very tough choice who he starts if we had Gillette with those three, which is about as big a complement I can give a back rower.

Geeze

Fifita
Wins a grand final almost single handedly and who is this other merkin?

 

[Rhino_NQ]

well, that sucked. We kick it on the last instead of being trapped twice in a row we most likely win as they gave up points on the return set. Utter stupidity.

On the bright side I held back from trading fifita out until right up to the bye week.

Goal kicking lost us the game also.

Good effort away against a great side

On Gallen, geez he started real slow. I was thinking of your comment and cursing you for a while there. Snapped back pretty quickly the 2nd time he came on and played like only he does.

Close but no cigar but Cowboys have found their feet in the comp and still a formidable side.

 

[Eion]

Lets see if the Sharks can come back like we did

I missed it. What happened?

lol remind me to ignore all your posts on your thoughts of rubgy league ever again.

Townsend is the most underrated player in the game.
