Kade Snowden

[troy]

Hi Guys, I missed the game last night because i was stuck transferring in beautiful Manilla airport!!

Can you tell me how Kade Snowden played last night? I've heard nothing from anywhere on how he went.... Did he hold his own???

5 / 10. I thought he was pretty good early, was off for a long period when belly decided we didn't need any front rowers out there, but was pretty ordinary when he came back on. Wasn't really hitting it up hard and a bit slow on a crutial tackle letting slater in for a try. Ellis found snowy good to hide behind when he started a blue though.

All in all, he seems to be a work in progress - I doubt there'll be howls for snowy to be dropped and he'll be better for the run.

I thought he did, Troy. Apart from one dropped ball in the second half I thought he went pretty well. Actually, I thought the team as a whole played well, after a slow start. I'd give 'em all another go.

stood too flat & made 2 critical errors. Not a good debut.
TLL was awesome. Best front rowers game in origin in years.

Cheers guys thanks.

Made a couple of good runs with the ball and quite good in defense in his first spell.

But a little disappointing in his next stint.

I think he deserves another go.

The prop rotation with King,Snowy,TLL and Mannah looked much more effective than a Weyman, White rotation with TLL.

O definitley i thought the props were so much better in that game. TLL is a monster!!

Might have been expecting a bit much but I thought he was pretty disappointing in his debut. Seemed to struggle with the pace of the game and getting in position for his hit ups. Only recall him doing two hit ups in his first stint. Mannah was much better and TLL showed them all how to run.

I didn't see it but by the sounds of it he needs a few runs at this level.
After game one there were plenty questioning TLL's place. Three games in and it sounds like he's finding his feet at this level. Hopefully the same can be said of Snow this time next year

 

[coolumsharkie]

I thought he handled himself ok, we all know what he can do so I hope they stick with the kid imo.

 

[Plastered]

Probably the weakest of NSW's 4 props (or 5 including Super Gal), with the dropped ball unfortunately a game changing moment.

TLL was massive, agree with Reefy's comments there, and Mannah was also very very good.

 

[millersnose]

he looked like a front rower who hadnt played for weeks and who started his first state of origin with 39 seconds of game time

Pretty much spot on Sam. I thought King had a good game as well.

 

[RgSharks]

I think you guys are all being a little harsh.
He was good in defence besides the miss on slater for that try, but Gal missed hime too.
His running was far more effective than white/weyman put together.

 

[millersnose]

Gal missed hime too.

NOOOOOOO

dont mention the sacred cow made mistakes

he was the bestest player

 

[blacktip-reefy]

Gall misssed him because Snowy was too slow in moving the same way as the defensive line.

 

[feeding frenzy]

Gall misssed him because Snowy was too slow in moving the same way as the defensive line.

Gal missed him because he over read the play and was beaten on his inside shoulder , However it is forgivable after the amount of metres and tackles he made during the game. Snowy didnt help the cause .
