Game Day v Penrifff

[Frenzy.]

Moyza's try wasn't a try, few things towards the end went your way though. Oh well, decent game.

Agree. Was short.

Moyza didn't get it down but I thought Yeo hit him high anyways

I think their defensive pattern nullified both Sifa and Jesse. A good lesson for Fitz next time we play them.

just thought some of the carries out of our end by him lacked his usual punch.
might be right, bit of fatigue maybe.

 

[Frenzy.]

Iv been one of his biggest fans but the negatives now out way the positives that Fifita brings.
Our interchange rotation is dictated by his low minuets forcing others to play longer than they should, his hit up only work if we are already on a role, defensively he is to slow.

He stopped a near certain try by Cleary. He was onto loos balls. He stopped a Cleary kick and I think got the ball back. 17 tackles in 23 minutes. 2.61 PTB speed.

He did his job

We had a lot of luck go our way and defended very well. Great effort against the best team in the comp.

I thought exactly the same about Sifa, they gang tackled both of them.

 

[shadowboxer]

40 missed tackles. For all the commentary on our defence we really do have a high missed tackles count every week

Pretty sure they were similar in missed tackles and we did plenty more defence - they were gassed.

 

[Stake Removed]

Fitz needs to fix the last 10 minutes away fr home all year we have scored 6 points conceeded 42

 

[Frenzy.]

wonder if ramien is injured?
seemed a bit off with his carries

Didn't you notice how quickly they were up on him? And Cleary on Sifa on the other side.

Fitz need to fix you.

I know only losing by 10 to the clear favourites of the comp isn’t too bad, but I’m still disappointed. That game was there for the taking. Hopefully that loss shows us what we need to do to beat them if we happen to meet them again in the finals

Yeah, they had 36 missed. Those are low counts in a game of that quality

 

[Poss]

End of the day, repeated errors coming out of our own end killed us.

Since manly we can't find sifa any space.
teams man up hard on him.

Yeah but better to lose that game now and learn from it. That was semi final intensity. They held their own on the scoreboard despite crueling themselves in the areas of handling, option taking and taking opportunities.

Will get better. That's the hardest part of the draw done now. Penrith's draw is harder. They be well bashed up by September. EVERYONE here would have been happy if they knew we;d get 2/3 vs Storm, Cows and Panthers a month ago

Could see when nicho wanted to get it out the back for ramien they were up and ready for it and shut it down before it got 2 passes wide. They are well coached but at least we'll have a plan b if we play them again as Fitz and the other staff will learn from that.

Basically take this as a learning curve for the finals and next season as Penrith are the absolute benchmark. Losing Api next season will be massive for them, he is unbelievably good.

 

[Frenzy.]

Funny thing, we only had 2 more errors than them.

 

[Blues Riff]

Anyone but that prick

lol

I reckon the backs played too shallow on the shift plays and created pressure on themselves on top of the fast defence.

Well, he is a prick. You know it too.

And he played pretty poorly
