Match Discussion: Round 10 vs Wests Tigers @ Scully Park, Tamworth / Kamilaroi

[Apey]

Anyone heading to the game? Was thinking about it but it’s a bit of a trek.

Had the same fleeting thought - oh its up this way, maybe I'll go. Except its an hour further away than Sydney is, heh.

A third win in a row without KP is going to grow the belief. I would regard this one as must win. Cos we are starting to resemble that ‘fly under the radar’ club everyone wants to be for 2/3 of the season. And then start to see if you are up for it at the business end. Interested to see how Jacko performs. He can hold a grudge.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Has anyone got the size comparison of Brailey and our hooker sized prop Jones?
Out of interest who is the largest sized regular starting hooker in our game and how does Jones compare?
unbiased opinions/facts please

Brailey is 179cms @88kgs

Jones is 180cms @103kgs

Brandon Smith is 180cms @95kgs

Jones isn't exactly "hooker sized"

Tks,

 

[Burwood]

And don’t forget we also have an actual hooker, Riley Jones, who is 190cm and 92kgs and also not quite hooker size.

I am 186-ish and 104kg. I have had a good old chat with Brodie. He is not prop sized. Maybe 30 years ago, but not now. I wouldn’t believe he is over 100. Mid 90s maybe.

a. Props are trending towards smaller and more mobile in the modern game

b. I don't know you but I'd hazard a guess you are carrying more fat and less muscle than Brodie

The Ruben Cotter mold is pretty useful in today's game. Leo is sort of that mold. Elliot is also running the ball much more and it's great too see also.

yes and yes. Even given that trend he is undersized. If he had Cotters leg speed it would be a different situation.

Apparently KPP will go the bench and lucas will start on the left, friz on the right.

 

[Yosh]

Wonder why? KPP needing bit of a rest after play heaps and heaps of minutes so early into his NRL career?

 

[Yosh]

Why so quiet in here?

 

[Haffa]

Brandy and Blocker. End me.

 

[Haffa]

Tuala is Gagai casual all x blokes look the same.

Too wet to type.

 

[perverse]

Bit of a bludger of an arm wrestle for the first 10 minutes. Dan has had a few good runs. Not much else to say.

 

[Haffa]

Obvious knock on missed.

 

[Jono078]

Brailey stuffed us there.
