Round 6 : Vs Penrith Pepper Stadium @ 8.00pm Friday 7th April

Burns needs time. He is a gun in the making. Patience, persistence, encouragement.

Im liking the look of this backline. Room to grow and prosper.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

We have a long way to go!!!

2 wins against undermanned teams struggling with problems & a comprehensive loss to the Tigers!!

A struggling effort against last yr's SPOON!!

A good test will be next game against the Dogs!!

Dogs have found form. This will be an awesome test.

Just had one of those nights every player has one but lucky we got the win

 

[Souths Till I Die]

I don't think AJ would of been too confident under those balls either. Same as Goodwin.

Those kicks he put up where perfect. Every winger in the NRL would of had trouble under them

 

[Rsag85]

Burgess boys where good last night and Turner did well at prop

 

[Rabbits20]

Our outside backs are really letting us down. They're just not up to it.

Yep correct.

Also mate that Panthers player should've been sin binned at the start of the match. That was a professional foul when we got the ball from Oldfield' stupid pass.

Agree

 

[Rabbits20]

Turner played a big part in finishing that game. Good on ya pikachu.

His best game for us yet. He needs to keep it up.

He really looked good at prop. Not only that but Crichton was great in the second row tonight. There's a lot to build on after tonight.

Crichton is a better second rower than Turner. Turner at prop works well.

Agree with you on all fronts here. Farah was better than cook tonight. It's frustrating because if you put cook and Farah together they would be an amazing hooker.

I thought Cook was sharper. I thought Cook really got us going forward and looked dangerous with darts.

 

[Rabbits20]

Cook isn't afraid to take the line on. Someone who is afraid to take the line on will take the ball forward and then throw a hospital pass just as the defenders converge on him. What Cook works towards is drawing in markers/defenders and then putting his runners in space - it is good hooking play in the modern game. Similarly, Cook doesn't fall off tackles; I'm not sure how you can say that. In terms of one on one tackling, I haven't seen him being exposed too often in that situation and that is a good thing too. Obviously he is going to struggle to bring down massive men of Taumalolo's size one on one but if that is happening, I'd be more concerned about how a defender in the middle of the part is being left in a one on one situation rather than the bloke's overall tackling ability; if that is happening you've got massive defensive issues!

I wouldn't bother mate.

I've got them on ignore so I don't have to read the tripe.

 

[Rabbits20]

That's my backline when they come back too bro.

Do you reckon Madge will move Bryson to centre though???

Our big test is next week.

 

[Pommy]

I was at work and the game wasn't available on anytime on fox play last night so I haven't seen the game. I did see the field goal and I notice it was a great run from Turner (and Walker) who got Reynolds in position to win the game. What a dud.

After thinking about it a bit, my backline is actually different.

I don't reckon Goodwin should be moved. Gray is better at centre and Goodwin is doing well on the wing.

What do you reckon?

I agree.

Goodwin didn't get to see much action last night, most of the ball went Burns way.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

Gray and hunt should definitely be the centres. Goodwin and burns have been good on the wings. There is no way we should try Robert Jennings on the wing, that would be a straight up disaster. Burns has the goods.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Isnt Gray out for a while though?

Gray is running at training and could be back in a few weeks with a bit of luck.

Fair enough. Id have him in if fit.

Really hope so MH,cause he got bombed more than Dresden last night.

 

[alien]

Another positive from the match is that Sutton and Crichton were both able to play the full 80 minutes in the second row with no problems.
