Finals Week One: Warriors v Panthers

[Black Panther]

Alamoti is a much better player than Jenkins.

I'm about to watch the second half again and I'll count how many of Brad's passes are acceptable

Last I'll say on Bradley. He passed the ball exactly 50 times from dummy-half yesterday with 44 of those being acceptable (none were good or created anything) with 6 passes either going to ground,way behind or the player had to jump to catch them.

That's not good enough

I'm impressed. First stat you've delivered to me in years.

I think a few people aren't giving Jenkins enough credit here. Aside from being clever and elusive, he's probably the best leaper we've had at the club in a long long time. Alamoti is no slouch in that regard, but if we drop Jenkins there'll be opposition coaches pleased that we've removed one angle of attack from their prep sheet. Alamoti is a beast and stronger physically, but I cant get behind the idea its a simple decision, particularly given Jenkins is the incumbent and has barely put a foot wrong in months.

Nice problem to have I suppose.

Wish one of them could play fullback.

Its just both are good so now we get to argue over the particulars. I was angry at Jenkins poor read during the game but otherwise don't mind him there but also am sad Alamoti isn't. Definitely a nice problem looking at some of the rosters out there.

Who said he was an expert defender?

If its in the middle of the field BS over Laurie every single time. That ain't up for debate.



I'm reasonably sure martielang would agree too.

I don't normally default to this argument because its boring but its all I've got left. Ivan Cleary thinks he is the best option. Arguably the best coach in the game. Happy to side in his camp.

Someone who has actually watched reserves this year will need to explain why Toelau or makeshift options like Cole aren't being tasked with the role. And we just missed the finals so you aren't going to get any insights from this weekend.

I think the top two things on the 14 job description are half and hooker cover, and BS is viewed as the best there.

I had hoped it could be Cole as he can hit hard, but his one on one misses against the Dogs suggest the middle might not be for him.

I wonder how BS goes at fullback? Probably amazing tbh.

I just haven't watched him enough so can't comment. The thing is we rested everyone against the Dogs. So everyone just looked worse. No first grade players on his inside and outside in defence. Tough to judge.

The bloke Ivan wants to play 14 covers zero positions

Got a bad feeling about this final series. Should have aimed for fourth for the extra chance.

Nonsense mate get it together.

If we beat Bulldogs we finish 6th instead of 7th. Playing the same team anyway. Only we do it with a team that needed a break and hasn’t had one.

Home final means nothing when we have no home ground.

My attempt at cheap trolling didn't work. You guys are too battle-hardened and, ultimately, successful to fall for it.

Good luck on Saturday! I'll be at my local, the Katoomba RSL, hoping for a miracle.

E

Brad is a grand final winner everyone. Doesn't that experience from the bench mean anything?

Everyone one of us has years of experience of sitting on the bench .But where not making any difference to the result as well
