    Round 2 v Wabbits

    Way too complacent and nearly got bit on the arse. Park level stuff from Cleary/Kenny not setting up for a field goal on 1 of the 14 occasions we were dead in front with >15 to go. Otherwise thought we were pretty good. Could’ve won by 20+. South’s missing most of their pack though which helped...

    Round 2 v Wabbits

    We got the bye next week? How shit.

    Round 2 v Wabbits

    This is probably becoming one of my favourite rivalries tbh. Real bit of spice in these games.

    Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

    Broncs have got a pretty fair side. Fell away sharply last year but up until the business end they were capable of beating anyone. I think they’re are better than some make out they are.

    Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

    Actually thought El Salmono had more of a crack than some of our more fancied forwards, Martin particularly.

    Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

    Harsh to point the finger at Garner tonight, I thought he had a couple of decent line runs with ball in hand despite having very limited space. I think he might look better with Cleary feeding him the ball as opposed to Luai who cramped him most of the night. Martin to me was more disappointing...

    Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

    Watched the short of our PF v Souths last year on fox last night. I think we all underappreciate how good Kiks is/was for us. Might not be as damaging with the ball as he once was but has evolved his game to be a complete back rower with or without the ball. Miss you Billy x

    Opinion Penrith

    Nah, Kiks is very good. Will be missed.

    World club challenge

    St Helen’s deserved winners. Wanted it more and played like it. Was our first hit out and we looked like it so not too worried. My only concern would be the impact Luai had and is going to have this year without Kiks next to him and Api giving him crisp service. He requires space to be...

    Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

    Yep I do agree with this. We have to evolve, and I do think we lack a bit of x factor whether that's an offloading big body or someone who can make something out of nothing ala prime peach. I worry we're going to become a bit too one dimensional. Luai is going to have next to no space this...

    Don’t want to be that guy but trials don’t mean a thing and many of the good teams treat it as such. I’d genuinely not play one if I was a coach / had the option, nothing to gain imo.

    Squinters Brewing on Peachtree Rd is an absolute cracker, as is Mountain Culture on David Rd in Emu. Both have some ridiculously good beers.

    General Discussion Thread

    Yep, I went to the opening. It’ll go well but personally think there’s a lot better local brewery’s around the area but each to their own. It’s a ‘cash in’ on image play imo, I don’t think they actually have anything to do with the beer or brewing etc.

    Hopefully a good game. I'm sure you've got good players in the ranks who will surprise a few. I tend to agree re; Croft. A more open free flowing game probably allows him to flourish as well.

    Dafuq you dropping king for?

    Nathan Cleary

    He probably wasn't wrong in fairness. Cleary and Maloney got away with murder for a couple of seasons, yet my man King Katoa would throw one loose pass (after 3 try assists) and they'd be out for the bloke with pitchforks.

    General Discussion Thread

    Actually think Rowles next to Souttar at CB was just as good but because of Souttars tackle, has been a little bit forgotten about. Going to be a serious pairing for years to come. Few good young kids in the squad, and a few who didn’t make it, who should be in their prime in the next couple...

    There would have to be something in the agreement where a certain number of players/specific players must play unless injured. It wouldn't be a cheap exercise for St Helens, there's no way we should be allowed to run out our second team.

    Actually thought Cleary controlled the game v NZ. Wasn’t a stand out performance but what was needed. Id hate to have to put a $$$ value on Crichton. Makes some poor decisions/attempts at times but in the big moments not sure there’s anyone better in the game atm. Still bloody young too.

    The great majority I reckon. He’s all limbs and lifted knees. You know what you’re going to get with most middles.
