Fifita

[carcharias]

He didn't carry on with any shit last night
He got the ball stripped and could of blown up but didn't
Then he got pushed over from behind after that try and kept cool.

 

[Craigshark]

The ball was definitely stripped. Unfortunately because of his reputation we didn't get the penalty which is bullshit.

 

[carcharias]

The ref even said it.

 

[Card Shark]

It was 1 of the most blatant & easily recognisable strips in the play the ball ever.

Obviously none of the officials were watching the ruck at the time.

Fifita has made his bed & that decision was him lying in it.

We need his aggression, particularly early in the game. After that, I just wish he'd do more straight running, with Barba or Holmes tagging along behind.

 

[Craigshark]

The ref even said it.

What a joke. We were coming home strong at that stage too.

What a joke. We were coming home strong at that stage too.

The coach should be asking why the ref is basing decisions on previous games .

 

[Stake Removed]

Fifita needs to just run hard and straight, none of the sideway stuff, none of stopping before line to fend when flat footed.

Run straight and hard, offload when chance do nothing else keep in centre of the field

 

[Card Shark]

From NRL stats:
172m
0 line breaks
3 offloads
37 tackles
3 errors (granted 1 was unlucky, team had 7).

He will win us the comp if he gets back to more straight running & respects possession more. He will get a line break or 2.

Frizzell had his hand all over that ball & it was obvious he knocked it out but he will never get a 50/50 call until he respects the ball.

What pisses me off most about the decision is if it was reversed & it was Fifita was the defender, the f**king bunker would intervene & over-turn the decision.

Agree with all that. Those stats would be great without the errors.

 

[Defer to the coifed]

Its no coincidence that the wrist slitters in this thread are the same grubs that
dream at the demise of Gallen. & yet here we are. Our best forwards continually maligned by theirs supposed fans.
Absolute grubs.

 

[Arnold]

But it's ok to rubbish our record breaking try scoring winger? Shut up clown.

yeah it is. Coz hes just another winger. Dime a dozen

 

[millersnose]

Lol
Yeah
People were calling for Gallen to play less minutes

That went well

Fajita villain of the week despite being the most effective shark

 

[carcharias]

Missed gal big time
If it means he is fit for finals then good call Flano.
Not only does Gallen make a million metres
He also draws defenders in all game
They all want to belt him

 

[Surely]

Tops the tackle tops metres gets bagged

Best prop at the club easily.

Hello

Sorry I can't hear you from this high up the ladder.

 

[chewsta]

I stand by my comments, Fifita was soft against the drags. most of his runs were skipping sideways at the line. It was a very un-Fifs performance regardless of his stats. Fifs will bounce back though.

I thought Prior was really good, ran hard and belted every merkin on the park in a red and white jersey.

 

[Card Shark]

172m with lots of sideways running, imagine what would happen if he took the defence head-on a bit more.

He's unstoppable running straight but can be picked off with the sideways stuff.

He is our most effective forward, yes, but he can be better - he's nowhere near his best atm. Bit like the rest of the team.
