Game day Thread Round 22 v The Wahs Friday 2nd August 6pm AEST

[JokerEel]

funny how when we win its 9 pages but if we lose its 30 pages the next morning, no scapegoats to talk about this morning

I wonder how much of this turn around is due to TBaz transforming the team over the last month or so, Warriors are a much better team at home although they were poor last night

If defense is more about attitude, how did he get the likes of Asi and Talagi to all of a sudden be able to defend ?

He must have also stuck a rocket up Lane, he actually looked like a player last night

Warriors have been crap this year.

They almost lost to the Tigers at home last weekend.

Asi was very good in defence last night.

Talagai made that 1 good tackle on Marata but apart from that wasn't special.

When I seen Lane charging onto the ball full speed it made me question why he hasn't been for the last 2yrs.
A lot of players we have written off might just need a rocket up their arses.

I still think Sivo will benefit from a new coach mostly.
Also Hands impressed me. Looking more confident each week. Calling plays down the blind side, running more and some inportant tackles. If he can finish the year like the way he played tonight we have our hooker issue solved.

Some people on here reckon Hands is just a reserve grade utility.

Going off the teamsheet in the first 10 weeks BA felt the same.

Like hands couldn't oust a 19 year old Boods for the 9 position in the NSW cup side and had to play in the halves in reserve grade.

Is that Josh the homophobic spear tackler ?

Most teams are getting up in his face as he’s trying to catch it. The lazy teams let him catch it and then try and bring him down.

the budgie smugglers are getting a lot of exposure from Gutho

I am VERY cautious in agreeing but perhaps, Lane and co DO have potential with a different coaching structure.

To be fair, we see it ALL the time with players going to new teams for example Paps when he came to Parra.

Our club is going to be like going to a totally new club with new coach, new assistants, new strength and conditioning staff, new training systems, techniques and game structures.

If Ryles is as smart as a lot of people say, maybe he is sitting back with plenty of confidence?

Why did they play so well last night in grit? It wasn’t because of something they learned during the week I’d say it’s proving they want a job which says to me it’s purely attitude.

I’ll put my hand up as being the guy kicking stones atm but maybe some of the stock we have can get back to NRL quality Ala a new team setup.

Ummmmm no nepotism at Parra.

He played well last night against no line speed and absent markers. Credit where it’s due, cos he was smart enough to sense it. If you want to be a top 4 side, Hands isn’t in your spine. Do you disagree?

I tell you what, if he plays like that v Penrith, then I will agree that he has long term prospects.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Hand's attack isn't the issue, it's his work rate. Before last night for the season he was averaging 25 tackles per game at 91% (not great). Last night he made 45 tackles at 98% (happy to be corrected on the stats)

Keep that up and he has locked in the 9 for us, it's the type of work rate he needs to be a definite nrl starter.

Lane has had chance after chance. This isn’t the first time he’s had 1 good game in 20. I’ll give him to end of season to see if disrupted last year affected him, but I think his best is gone
