2019 Pre-Season Trials - Feb 22, 23

[tumbidragon]

Drinkwater and Walters both look in good nick for Storm. Cooks been solid for Warriors and Patty Herbert has had a couple nice touches.
But gee the Storm seem to have a great production line of monster sized props coming through!

 

[no name]

Shhhhhhhandor’s silky hair has been the most impressive thing about this game.

RLL video game scoreline

For a bloke who is coming back from a lengthy ban for drug trafficking, Sandor is doing himself no favors with that hair

 

[colly]

Hitting with grunt......

 

[colly]

10 or is that 9 in the bin quick get the stopwatch out ,,

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

This Storm side couldn't score in a discount brothel

And then they score off a blatant forward pass lol

 

[colly]

Storm first try.Not forward at all/sar

 

[tumbidragon]

Haha, f**k! Refs off to a cracker start to the season, with calling a TRY from a 6m forward pass...

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Eisenhuth has had a howler. Bellyache may eat his heart while it's still beating

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Pretty atrocious hitout all things considered

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Solid enough hitout all things considered. Those in contention for first grade played some decent minutes, especially in the forwards so nice to blow out the cobwebs and get some running into the legs.

Herbert raised his stock a bit, nobody else who wasn't already in contention did anything of note.

 

[TheDMC]

A perfectly acceptable hit out all things considered.

 

[Saxon]

Impressed with Walters and Drinkwater for Melbourne, Croft not improved himself in my estimation. Cook a standout for the Warriors and Bunty was massive.

After my criticism of the Allstars game, this one did not do anything to boost my confidence for the refereeing approach to the ruck this season.
Lying on for ages, players flopping in late, holding on and pulling back down, markers never getting square and plenty of play the balls before the player has stood up properly. Overly slow rucks and messy as f**k.

 

[Fangs]

Hunt looking good, Ponga looking better.

 

[Hutty1986]

A perfectly acceptable hit out all things considered.

i see what you did there, and i liked it

 

[Hutty1986]

So we've had one taken off us fairly controversially and blown a couple more tries. Back up halves looking pretty sharp. Good cover for when the moron bikie whisperer f**ks up and gets himself suspended.

 

[King hit]

Hunt looking good

Watch Dragons fans pump him out as a champion halfback before Hunt does what he does best and shit himself under pressure

 

[Xcalibre]

Bulldogs carvin up the Faders. Boys will be hurtin.

Dean Pay is either a madman or genius, switching Jackson and Faitala-Mariner to opposite sides to which they usually play, but it's payed off with 2 good tries down the Jacko's left flank. Hoppa was instrumental.

Dogs score off an intercept to lead 22-6 just before halftime.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Holland and the Dogs are tearing the Raiders a new one, 22 - 6 almost halftime

 

[OzDragon]

18-10 Dragons win

Our undefeated season begins
