I swear we get screwed by injuries more than any other team. Is it our trainers, style of play or just bad luck?

 

[macnaz]

Specialy with new players we buy.

 

[BuffaloRules]

BMM needs a net to catch the ball.

Really cost us a few chances in the last 10 mins.

 

[Vic Mackey]

His hands cost us but it was him who got us back in it IMO. His runs during his second stint were fantastic

 

[Marshall_magic]

His runs got us back into the game, then his 2 knock ons in the last 10 were costly.

 

[benched tiger]

Knowing he took a head knock i dont think we can be too critical of those handling errors this time.I am
more annoyed with the rediculous obstuction rule costing us another try.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Still has some mistakes in him but love the way he hits the line.

 

[Shanghai Charlie]

Has BMM played one game in his career where you can sit back at fulltime and say, "Terrific game. I wish he would do that every week"?

Hasnt played one excellent game in his career and this is his fourth season with us.

So not impressed by him.

I've said that after more than a few of his games, you are a harsh judge.

 

[Mario chalmers]

Where is he playing round 1?

 

[Shanghai Charlie]

Played well last year. Earned more playing time. Would lke to see him starting early in the season to see if he is ready to really flourish. Im still not sure if he is best at prop or backrow. I like his impact at prop last year. But would love to see him eat up Bodene's minutes too with our strng prop rotation.

Boils unit, Westmead

 

[innsaneink]

Actually, ignore that ^^^

Playing state cup today

 

[gronkathon]

He was pretty good. Played some time at prop and on the left edge

 

[innsaneink]

How did Groat look, Gav?

 

[Perth Tiger]

I guess the question is when will BMM ever fulfil his potential. He reminds me a lot of Jason Taumalolo (sp) from it cowboys who was very good in rd1. That type of player is exactly what we need but how long can we wait for it?

 

[gronkathon]

How did Groat look, Gav?

Limited effectiveness.

Seems to have corrected his running style though. Seemed intent on niggle and it didn't work.

Think the Cutters are on Fox next week so he should be on for that

 

[hybrid_tiger]

BMM must be playing firsts next week, replacing Gavet, Thompson, Patterson, Blair, take your pick...

 

[gronkathon]

He will be replacing Fulton. I am guessing he has a serious concussion

 

[Mario chalmers]

BMM and naiyaravaro should both play I feel.

So often we get monstered in the ruck. Round 1 this year was a carbon copy of rd 1 last year in that regard.

Part of the reason we're getting steamrolled is a lack of experience. In saying that, undersized forwards like Thompson and Patterson have already shown they can't dent the line.

Frizzell in comparison carried two blokes with him every hit up
