Bret 38 Sharks 20

[R2Coupe]

The Tigers No 10 had a big game against the Sharks at Henson Park. Seemed to be able to step and twist through the line at ease. Jared Farlow at lock was dangerous in attack and strong in defence.

I was most impressed with Matt Ryan who on the left edge caused trouble for the Sharks at every run. One of his offloads lead to the Lazarus try.

Meaney had another good game. Taumata did not play and talk was he was in North Qld.

matt ryan has really gone from strength to strength this year. he has really bulked up and is causing havoc on the edges. wouldnt be surprised to see him play first grade with another club next year.

Yeah Taumata has signed with the Cowboys. The big prop you're referring to is David Gower, he had an excellent game. BTW I wouldn't mind seeing Adam Cuthbertson playing at the Tigers, he was sensational in the second half.

Yeah Taumata has signed with the Cowboys.

Serious???????????

Cuthbertson had a good game. Pity his teammates could not read him.

Got a link for that?

 

[andrew9148]

There's a post on the cow boys fourum but no link. I suppose there was no place for him long term. i think he could have been given a game though. good luck to him.

 

[madunit]

so at this stage it's an unsubstantiated claim.

 

[andrew9148]

well he didnt play today apparently. that could mean he is going. but it could mean anything. its a funny rumour to start though if its not true.

 

[westie]

I can't understand why that Sharks side is so sh*t, considering the names they have on board.

 

[R2Coupe]

Take the time to watch Bret and you will see it is a very good team. It is not a case of the Sharks being bad.

Gower, Carr, Ryan, Curren, Farlow, Nichols and Meaney are very good players. Ryan in particular looks like an NRL player. He has improved every year and looked a threat on the left every time he had the ball. A couple of his tackles were solid hits.

 

[westie]

Wasn't talking about that game, as I haven't seen it. Look at the play-makers in the side, I struggle to understand why they seem so inept in attack.

 

[gronkathon]

Cuthbertson only looked good playing at basically 5/8.

Bog ordinary offering nothing up the miidle but threw some decent offloads but zero grunt.

We may as well sign Slammin Sam Harris for another year if we sign that gronk

Lewis didn't play and Carr dominated Flanagan

 

[westie]

I see.

I watched them last week. Porter, Lewis and Flanno all seemed well below the form they've shown against much higher opposition (despite Flanagan's try).

Probably a few bargins in that bin for a club at some stage. Porter would be a better option for us than Lui.

 

[R2Coupe]

Westie, your fishing for a bite correct? Lui is a very talented footballer and will develop into a fine half.

 

[westie]

Porter has shown far more than Lui. So no.
