What can I say. Given our recent history against the two clubs it would've been no surprise to cop two 40 point hidings. We ended up losing 42-20 v the Bulls and 36-22 against the Radiers.
JBC observations:
What an experience it is to go to Potts Park. Interesting ground with the greyhound track. Facilities leave a bit to be desired. Even Henson is better (I am shocked too).
The boys matched it with the Bulls early. Heck, we were winning! The Bulls are a big side especially with big John Kagi on the wing. The Bulls ran away with it in the 2nd half overpowering us.
It was good to see Newtown throw the ball around and offload. The confidence and enterprise shown by the lads was a change and if we play like that this week, we are a chance against Erina.
The Greyhound Social Club at Potts Park is also a wonderful facility. No Sydney Bulls people were there. That's a surprise given that it is so close to the ground.
PL observations:
Wasn't there but there were many late changes. We had the lead midway through the second half before Canberra ran away at the end.
This makes the loss against Norths crucial. We have a tough road ahead (Cougars, Roosters, Parra among others). The Cougars are a team we can beat but they are stacked with good players.
