Some interesting stuff going on this week. Fabian Goodall pushes into the centres as Nathan Davis takes a seat on the bench. Alex Twal and Paulua Kaufusi claim their maiden starting jerseys while Jordan Muna also comes into the starting roster. Tui Kamikamica makes his return from an ankle injury sustained a few rounds ago against the Storm.

Weird f**ken side. Methinks there will be more ducks and drakes this weekend. Shenanigans!

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Twal looked like a busy player for a young central fwd when on the TV game the other week. Might be a bit of a long-term dark horse enigma one we should never have let go oops sort of guy.

Isnt Davis the best thing coming thru? Benched?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Davis is tall and fast and he kicks goals. He might play first grade one day but I don't get the hype surrounding him. He must play better when he's not on TV.

Try to Parra as Lavaka leaps up high to take a Dockar-Clay bomb before offloading to Fuimaono who dives over.

 

[Forty20]

The conversion is successful from Dockar-Clay

Parra lead Cronulla 6-0

5min gone.

 

[Forty20]

Try to Cronulla as the ball is stripped out from from the Cronulla #12 near the goal line. The ball rolls in goals and the Cronulla hooker places a hand on it to score.

The conversion is successful.

Cronulla lock the game up at 6-all.

8min gone.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Alex Twal looks a bit small. I guess he'll get bigger though - he is only 18.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Goodall not defending well, though it looks like he doesn't trust Dyldam Izzard.

 

[Forty20]

Try to Cronulla as they run it down their right edge short side on the last. Simple hands is enough to put their winger over in the corner.

The conversion is unsuccessful.

Cronulla hit the lead 10-6

20min gone.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

f**ken go boys! Score on every set!!!

 

[Y2Eel]

Izzy jnr sucks. ..

 

[Poupou Escobar]

'Go Yourself' Goodall! f**k passing to these other merkins.

 

[Y2Eel]

Goodall good

 

[Y2Eel]

'Go Yourself' Goodall! f**k passing to these other merkins.

Same thing I yelled out!

 

[Forty20]

Try to Parra as Izzard commits the markers and then shifts the ball to Makelim to puts Goodall on a one way trip to the try line. Goodall steams through a poor attempted tackle by the Gummies' fullback.

The conversion is successful from Dockar-Clay.

Parra lead Cronulla 12-10

27min gone.
