Game thread v Souths 27/3/15

Doesn't he? Looks a million bucks with the ball in hand. Imagine his price-tag if he'd been playing with a winning team, like Alex Johnston.

His two tries he basically ran around his man with not a lot of space to work with

I was confident all week we would win tonight!

Great win boys, one of the best we have had for a long time.
The forwards really stood up tonight.
Sandow ran the show very well.
Robinson is a freaky finisher.
Wicks is a monster.

How would you guys like to have Joel Reddy back? He is an absolute liability. I thought he was beaten far too easily by Robinson and was caught out of position time and time again. The penalty that he gave for taking Robinson out was just crazy as was his pass in field well inside his own half that almost handed you guys possession.

Ha ha, don't let Swifty see that post.

I thought the refs had an ordinary game! Forward passes were missed and so too were penalties. How the refs missed the swinging arm from Lussick at a crucial time in the game as to with Reece Robinson's choke slam on Joel Reddy in the first half. Souths has numerous forward passes that weren't called and I think a few knock ons from both teams were overlooked as well.

lol

the refs tried to help your mob win and still failed

This is what shits me. If we play like that away we can give the comp a shake. We only do that at Pirtek.

This is what does my head in.
I was ready for a thrashing tonight.
Took almost 65 minutes into the game before I started getting on the edge of my seat.
Wonder which team turns up next week @ ANZ?

Maybe you could offer your counselling services here?

Already the best buy of the year..

I actually feel bad suggesting this.
But I liked the Lussick and Wicks combo to start the game with Mannah coming on after about 20-25. Mannah has very good leg drive and could work well against the tired forwards.
Obviously tonight it was because he was concussed, but I thought it ended up working well for us.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Geez Mannah went forward tonight. He was excellent off the bench early in his career. I love us starting with Lussick.

 

[emjaycee]

Are we on the way up yet?

Agreed.

Great win. One of the best for a long time. I though Watmough aimed up well and showed tremendous line speed and kept rushing the Souths forwards who as the robots they are had no answers to our rushed, up and in defence.

I thought Lussick had his best game in years. Sandow was tremendous. He just needs to be more consistent. Still loving Norman's form. I've been wrong plenty of times, I wanted to get rid of Sandow yesterday but I just can't see the love for Hopoate at fullback. We probably haven't many options for 2015 but for mine he still a better centre. With Taka out injured he may go back there with Robinson going to fullback.

Special mention also to Peats, he was awesome and outplayed that cat, Isaac Luke.

I don't wanna give Reece Robinshit any credit so I will keep bagging him in the hope he will continually prove me wrong. You're shit Reece!

 

[eels_fan]

Interesting to see what we do next week without Taka. Our centres can't take a hit this year.

Hoppa
?
Folau
Morgan
Robinson
