Just wondering if we had JT what would we be like now?

Anyone who can visit parallel universes please give us an update


I've submitted my application to join but it seems that part of the forums must be reserved for Stagger and his pals .

No see my post above. We have been flogged twice but apart from that our defence hasn't been as terrible as our for and against indicates.

If we were consistently getting 30 to 40 points scored against us then yeah it wouldn't be good.

I think conceding 40+ twice in nine games isn't good and shows where our defence can be. That's reflected in our total points against.

Also, last night was our third most points conceded this year (although we won), coming straight after our second worst display against the Cowboys.

Our attack is monstrous though.

Sandow just needs to practice goal kicking more. This is the first time in memory where we have been lacking in the goal kicking department and its already cost us 2 games.

Or maybe he should practice less?

He is 9th most accurate kicker in NRL history - whoever is coaching him needs to give themselves an uppercut.

I thought he kicked pretty well this week. Missed only marginally on his first attempt. The one for Sio hit the upright and the last one I didn't see as the recording stopped just before he kicked.

We have won more games this season than last. If we beat the Dragons we must be pretty close to equalling what we won for the past two. Be happy and don't look to be critical when we are. It's bound to change eventually.

I can be as negative as the rest of them but I am enjoying what's happening.

With regard to goal kicking, it would assist greatly if when scoring a try, players looked to improve the position to its absolute best. Too many times players cross the try line and simply plant the ball without even considering improving their position.

We've conceded big scores twice in 9 games in 2014.

On the flip side, we have had big wins 3 times in 2014.

I think this team is performing very well - although they are inconsistent, which you expect from such a young and inexperienced side.

We have a lot of room to improve, but I think there is way more upside that downside with this squad under the tutelage of Arthur.

As for Norman, I don't get the hate - he makes a few errors and he hasn't set up many tries, but he has thrown some great passes, tackles well, and has put in some good kicks. He has been solid IMO.

And with Sandow, Hayne and Peats stealing the show, it's all Norman needs to do. He's obviously a calming influence on the team, and he has leadership qualities we are sorely lacking at times.
