Finals Week 2 vs Souths

[Mickthedragon]

Souffs dished up more tripe tonight when roosters were there for the taking and just holding on. If only we had Widdop and Vaughan last week.
We would of had a good shot at them tonight but it wasn't to be.

How good would it to be to add Cronk and Tedesco to your team, and then just ad Crichton the following year.

What's our new winger's name again?

The Dragons took everything out of Souths last week , their forwards just could not do any damage , they looked completely drained of energy. Cook threw some bluudy shocking passes that really let the Roosters of the hook .On a side note it was most sad to see Inglis get injured in the last tackle of the game .

Mentioned that in JA.

They got us without Widdop and Vaughan, and the Roosters without Napa and Mitchell (and an injured Cronk).

They were in poor form, they had lost 4 of 5 coming into our game.

Effectively they were suffering a slump like we did, but just at the complete wrong time of year.

Roosters were there for the taking last night.

Will Reynolds be smashed by the media for his game plan? The Rabbits kept going to the left and got same result = zero. Twice in quick succession they got a penalty right in front of the posts and did not take the 2 . Rabbits would have been just 2 behind at that stage. Yet he tried to go for penalty 50 metres out with 1 minute to go.

I thought this last night, and sure enough Reynolds didn’t get slammed at all. If Hunt was Reynolds last night he’d be the sole reason for the loss by the media, even here on the forum.

I think we would have given the chooks a run for their money.
Ben hunt would have led the way.

It’s Thursdsy and it still sucks we lost .
Gutted .

And going by the prelim finals I’m more annoyed. This comp was there for the taking if a few players were given a rest as a way to freshen up the squad.
Coulda, woulda, shoulda, didn’t....

Il go one further I think we would have beaten the chooks last night if JDB could have played. The storm well , no comment.

 

[Life's Good]

He was found not guilty.

In fairness to Surgess, it was found he didn’t have a case to answer so there was no charge to be fought for a guilty/not guilty outcome.
On the other hand, he does have some work to do to explain it all to his wife....

In fairness, sometimes injuries just happen. Plenty.of key injuries that have affected the top teams.

Wade Graham, Gallen, now Cronk. Widdop was our biggest loss and that was just bad luck.

We could have covered the loss of Vaughan, but Widdop was just a step too far. I’m guessing losing Cronk will do the same for the Roosters.

Injuries aside you had Dufty admitting he was physically spent, Friz & JDB well & truly cooked which could have been avoided or at least managed better with a bit of foresight.
And it probably helps the mental side knowing your teammates are fit & ready.
Hopefully it’s a lesson learned for 2019.

Would be a lesson learned for most people.

A repeat problem for the past few years. No lessons learned by Mary.
