Match Discussion: Round 12 vs Penrith @ Carrington Park, Bathurst / Wiradjuri

[Loose Cannon]

Now for the hard part.

 

[perverse]

Now for the hard part.

Even 24 doesn't feel like enough. It would be nice if the coach didn't speak to the team at half time. Just let Bedsy pass some oranges around and get them back out there or something.

 

[T-Boon]

The Knights should punt Ponga - they are usually better without him - and get a halfback (Sexton?) and a prop. Sharpe is a quality young fullback with great attitude.

 

[T-Boon]

Lucas is insane.

Is he usually anywhere near this good?
Unreal game.

Yeah, down to 15 is a big worry. Friz will be overloaded but needs to be out there with the alternatives.

 

[Yosh]

Alright some thoughts:
Why we so fast out of the ruck?
Why is Crossland so crisp today?
Gamble looks the goods on the left. Keep him there and play Sharpe on the right?
Frizz needs a contract extension.
Feel bad for Elliot. Looked devastated.
Feel bad for the new kid Bryan... Hope he isn't hurt too bad and can keep playing.
Lucas is a god. Wow. Wow and wow and wow.
Feels awkward being on the right side of many 50/50 calls.
We look like a NRL quality side tonight for some reason. Don't know how I feel about this.
Good to see Bedsy always.

Lucas diving for the corner like a winger cracked me up, shame he dropped it lol.

Vonnie: "you can make excuses for Penrith because they're so down on personnel"

Yeah, because we have a full strength team and everything...

Unreal game.

Yeah he is. He’s a gun. Also exactly the reason we can’t compete with the Tigers offer for KPP. It would be criminal if Lucas isn’t the highest paid back rower in the side.

I know. It’s driving me nuts. We have both starting front rowers out, 3/5 of our backline, lost Elliott early and another one playing with a dislocated shoulder. Yeah everything’s rosy for the Knights.

 

[T-Boon]

Yeah he is. He’s a gun. Also exactly the reason we can’t compete with the Tigers offer for KPP. It would be criminal if Lucas isn’t the highest paid back rower in the side.

Just read up on him on wiki. Hope the Knights lock him up for 5 years.

 

[Apey]

We're doing pretty much everything right but it feels like the Souths game to me. Penrith are 2nd last and have a lot out this week. Anything less than a win is embarrassing and so far so good.

So do we though.. And we are last

 

[Apey]

So do we though.. And we are last

Yeah I'm not saying we don't, but you're not going to win that argument. I'd take Panthers outs over ours very comfortably.

 

[Yosh]

This Hunt lad is so good under the highball. McCarthy isn't too bad either. Wish we could put in some attacking high kicks for them...

 

[Tom155]

Dumb challenge from Penrith

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Pretty sure if it comes off your shoulders it's still a knock on Blocker...

Dont listen to Vossy. Must have missed last week.

 

[Haffa]

Yes he is.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

What was wrong with that?
