For more actual real, cleanly stated opinions?

Or for more equivocation and forum "educating" style of posts...?

RCGs first try was interesting. Last week we ran a similar play with Matto passing to Junior. This week we've run the same play, but instead went with a face ball across Junior to RCG into a big hole, which was created when Townsend came in because he thought it was going to Junior. Good play really.

Good play under the circumstances... but was that while they were one middle forward short? Not sure it's more than a good hit up/attempted crash against 13 players.

But RCG's second try, that was the shit! (And when I lost my shit that we weren't going to fold and give in/up )

I just watched the game again in Kayo. I take back what I said about Simonsson. He’s carries were strong and his scramble was good.

Both teams defended extremely well but the Eels had the finesse when needed.

I’m happy with Opacic back in the team if he’s 100%, otherwise stick to this week’s list.

Wait, Carty. He’s a loose cannon.

And when he stared down Atkins and told the fu*ker to point to the spot. Its was Reg's hold my beer merkin moment and he didnt disappoint.

Well put it this way: if Simonsson is dropped for Opacic next week I'll understand why, and I won't think the coach is wrong. Even if we lose.

If Reg stared me down like that, I'd give him the deeds to my house - he's a massive human!


He's also an absolute machine, and I would largely credit him for the steady turnaround of our forward pack's form over the years; he's a bloody inspirational team mate.

 

[Jake the snake]

He did have some awkward games at winger, but he looked very comfortable in the centres.

He was strong I’ll give him that. Unco but strong
