Around the Grounds

[Burwood]

Typical Crossland- tackled his heart out and missed very few, did nothing with the ball. Had one run all game I think.

Don't forget his standard 6 again in your own half when he's stuffed and the coach has left him out there too long.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Stupid daylight savings. I missed the first half.

3 weeks is an exceptional period to claim ignorance.

In his defence he lives in QLD and we cop the NRL publishing kick off AEDT instead of AEST.

Yep, fair enough. I assumed local.

Also, I tried to include an emoji, which would have indicated the spirit I intended, but it didn’t show.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

KPP played on the left for England over night and was pretty effective. Got a handy offload that lead to England's 1st try

Looked far better than Bateman whon was more interested in starting fights than playing footy

 

[Knight Tales]

England’s left edge was pretty slick. Matty Ashton is a winger to watch. His movement is pretty much poetry. I can see him in the NRL. The absence of Critter was glaring.

So how did our boys do for New Zealand tonight? Looks like Crossland did good?

Crossland was basically the same as last week, worked his arse off and even got a try.

Leo was pretty poor I thought.

Leo was very poor, yep. NZ had all sorts of issues in the middle of the field, and Leo contributed to it. To be fair, so did Phoenix in the first half.

So how'd our two Kiwi lads do? Good overall?

 

[Nuke]

They surely would have enjoyed being in a team that won a game by nearly 50 points.

For a change.

I wasn't sure which thread to post this in but draw for round one next year has been leaked:

 

[Old dog]

Was reported today in Sunday Tele.
Big game for us, must win, should win to give us a strong start

Will be keen to see the halves competition of Galvin/luai vs the mighty ????/????

 

[ryan.a87]

May will be at tigers round 1

tigers going to be a pretty decent team next year, will be out to make a statement against us

All the noise going into the game is going to be about Luai. No pressure on us at all, but we'll probably still shit the bed and Luai will put on a clinic to announce himself at his new club.

We’re really slow starters too.

Got the Rabbitohs in magic round

will be interesting how they are travelling mid year under uncle Bennett

Vibe check on Daley being made the new nsw coach for 4 years

to me it sounds like he went into the interview with Ballemy in his back pocket as an “adviser “ and nsw say this as a package deal and good way to get bellyache involved
