Keating?

[Perth Red]

Better with him than without him?

 

[Timmah]

Nope. Hodkinson's the better half by a significant margin. Our problem this year has been a different forward pack each week - too many injuries and suspensions. Barba drama didn't help either.

 

[Packy]

Yeah Hokko is much better. Don't think you will find many to disagree.

 

[Bulldog Force]

Hokko for sure. Just not sure on Hokkos goal kicking though. He was doing well up until he started missing more than usual.

 

[Timmah]

He sharpened up again over the last couple of rounds I think. There were a few weeks where he had to combat crazy winds I think, starting with Mackay.

 

[Dogs Of War]

Just needs to take on the line a bit more, so the defence doesn't just slide across onto the next man. Otherwise I am more than happy with the combination he has with Reynolds.

 

[Timmah]

I noticed the Knights were reading our second man play ridiculously easily yesterday.

 

[Packy]

Well we are doing it slow, telegraphing it and the passes aren't crisp.

 

[Whoosh]

Hokko for sure. Just not sure on Hokkos goal kicking though. He was doing well up until he started missing more than usual.

This!

He's a great goalkicker - when they go through!

 

[Bulldog Force]

This!

He's a great goalkicker - when they go through!

Yeah. Same can be said for Inu. Problem is Inu is good one 1 particular side of the field, whereas Hokko is more of an all-rounder.

It was definitely the Barba issue and the injuries/suspensions to key forwards.

Hopefully the Dogs find a good fullback replacement and get on with their ways. When they're strong the NRL gets insane crowds and it's always good to see the Dogs in full force.
