I think that was Lomax's first game since he was dropped- pretty sure he didn't play last week.
Considering the way the side played in first grade yesterday you'd have to think he'd be picked for NRL next week, he couldn't do too much more today, would have had another try assist if the winger was paying attention too.
If hook is picking the team, who knows. I've given up trying to second guess that stubborn old goat-BTW, hook is about my age, but he's still a stubborn old goat.
Noone knows.. Ironically our first named side vs the Titans is probably our best, except with JDB in at lock, Bird on the edge & BMM out of the side.
Well, if we got rid of hook, we would probably be in a better position. One thing for certain, we would not be in a worse position!
To me, Fifita showed signs of why Sulli said he really didn't want to come here.
I was so excited to see if Lomax was back on the right to fight for his longterm position.. I was so bummed.. and it was obvious that tamale also just didnt quite know how to attack on the right.. when you consider they are both on the wrong side.. I mean.. my god.. its madness.
IMO all the feedback he gets is irrelevant until he's back on his right side.. then he can be judged.. he spent his life stepping and tackline on one shoulder.. and at the most elite level, thats the difference.. he gets found out on the left.. but on the right I think his defence is a hell of a lot better. We will have to wait for hook to be gone so we can see what they have in store for him longer term...
They say he is playing with a really painful Sternum injury that he should be resting.. I really hope that is the case.. I hope that its not sooking.. but I think hes playing at a fraction of his potential right now..
They need to fix that.. I assumed Herring was injured.. they desperately need a more stable halfback at the minimum in that NSW Cup side.. I lost my mind when I saw Mulheissen/Turner as the combination.. absolute plodders, what chance does the rest of the team have? And the rest of the team was actually a pretty good line-up.
You know what madness is, our recruitment/retention, we have signed up Lomax till 2027 or thereabouts and we then go sign Suli who plays on the same side to a 3 year deal on good coin, why not actually go out and look for a left centre, players these days play one side of field for their whole career, its not smart recruitment.
If that’s true it’s unforgivable. 2 rounds of football later and no feedback from the coach on why he’s been dropped? Same stories we heard after a few players moved on after last season, even Woods confirmed similar after he left. Griffin is a cancer on this club.
You've summed this all up perfectly Rev. I completely agree with you.
