Izzy Falou is sitting behind me in the Trust box, fans are signalling to him - sign now.

Wouldn't that make the loss of Hayne more bearable!

 

[half_back]

I was pleased to see him running at gaps rather than players.

And his defence seemed strong, too.

He is a centre though. His positioning on kicks has been terrible left Hoppa all alone twice. One definitely was Folau's. First try was a centres try.

What a different team we are at home! Energy, aggression in defence. Why can't we bring that every week?

 

[Swiftstylez]

We need to come out physical in our forwards

 

[Avenger]

we need to settle it down and play for field position work for our chances not push the pass

No mate. If we play too structured Souths will kill us. We must play like in 2009 and keep looking for the offloads and run it on the 5th. These merkins are like robots.

That's spot on about Johnny, but I was talking about the Penis Torpedo!

I also mean no disrespect to Peni - it's an affectionate nickname.

 

[Kornstar]

Sort off, needs to cut out his errors. Gave away penalty straight away then nearly knocked.

You mean the Luke "strip". Replay was clear that he lost it fighting the tackle.

Wait, what?

 

[Casper The Ghost]

Amazed we are still in this game. What the f**k is going on here? :crazy::crazy::crazy:

Disjointed attack, much better defence than last week and Folou doing well in attack.
Sandow, possibly the best player in the 1st half.

So far, I think our forwards have out muscled theirs.

I rarely notice defence.

But yeah, Peni's got pace, he should be running at gaps, and expecting to get through.

yeah our forwards have really stood up ... i'd call it even - but thats a f**kin win for us vs souths!!

 

[Avenger]

Sandow playing well. Which merkin wanted him gone? You people have no idea.:sarcasm:

Absolutely!

I think what he was doing in the past was trying to run over other forwards, and he got man-handled.

But now, Arthur has him running at gaps, and what a difference it makes!

Absolutely, mate! Very impressed with our pack!

 

[Casper The Ghost]

If we are to win this game, our forwards need to keep up the 1st half standard and improve another 20% and Sandow's kicking and running game in tandem with Norman to get MOM.

 

[TheParraboy]

imagine Falou scoring 4 tries on his debut..

i dont mean run one out just show some patience & not go for the miracle ball

pretty sure he didn't score 4 last week

:sarcasm:

Spot on. Get your players to do what they're best at. A shame the last couple of coaches couldn't see that.
