2013 Trials

[Frederick]

Not sure I get your point

No-one does

 

[Byron Knight]

Great short ball from cuthbertson puts fa'alogo into a whole. Inside pass goes to ground 5 metres out. Souths get the ball.

 

[Byron Knight]

How did the Mullen/Gidley halves combination look Byron?

Hard to say, only passed the ball to each other once I think. Mullo do the kicking and I think gids just wanted to get through unhurt

 

[Byron Knight]

Will smith looks the goods. Much more entertaining the 3rd quarter. The young guys are on top. Fresh legs helps though.

Of course jezza is jeremy smith...

Sorry Fred - I know that you are on a first name - or nickname basis with all your players - DICKHEAD !

 

[Byron Knight]

Tetevano running hard.

Inglis off, Merritt to fullback.

 

[Byron Knight]

Different game now. Both sides throwing it around.

 

[Byron Knight]

I think will smith has put more grubbers through in 10 mins then Mullen did all last year.

Whoa, calm down ho.

My fault - I should've realised that you need an IQ over 5 to realise that 'Jezza', a fairly common colloquialism of the name 'Jeremy', could only refer to one player on our team.

Keep punching away at English 101 - you'll get there one day champ.

 

[Byron Knight]

McQueen (I think) spills a grubber from Tyrone Roberts who regathers to score

Conversion successful. 12-0

 

[The Showstopper]

Well thanks for sharing Shane.

 

[Frederick]

Shane's off his meds again

Any who, back to the game

We won 18-6. Robert got a double in the second half.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

Smith and Scott were foundations for us in 2010.

Hard merkins. Thats what you lacked last year.

Some real promise for Newcastle this year. Looks they've bought in to what Wayne is selling.

How did the lad Frei go?

 

[Byron Knight]

You're right Ronnie. Those 2 just say "follow me" and they all did. Beau in particular will be good for Aku. It looked like they were just doing what he did.

Frei did alright. He is massive too. Good size. Korbin was good. Ran very hard

 

[Yosh]

Cool. Did we look the good or was it just a bad game all round?

 

[Hanscholo]

15. Korbin Sims
16. Mitchell Frei

Interesting.

 

[Allstar Knights]

Byron, who was the best prop on the field for us and which ones looked dominant? Do you think Sims or Frei could land a bench spot in Round 1 based on what you saw? Cheers.

 

[The Showstopper]

15. Korbin Sims
16. Mitchell Frei

Interesting.

At some stage those two will get a run. Hopefully off the bench and not because Big W and Snowy are injured. I hear Snowy,s runs had more leg speed circa Sharks 2011

 

[Byron Knight]

Props probably excited me the most. It looks like there is legitimate competition for spots. Willie played like a guy who knew he had good support around him. Snowden looked fit and ran with purpose. 2 hit ups a set at time. Nev came on and played in the middle and kept hi game nice and simple. Was smashing people too. Frei was solid, kid did his job. Tets ran hard in the second half, looked good in defence too. Cuthbertson had a few good offloads but like him in the second row more.

Sims is exciting though. First run was Martin Lang style. Hard and straight. Loves the contact. He would provide good impact off the bench.
