Match Discussion: Round 10 vs Wests Tigers @ Suncorp Stadium

[Yosh]

So two weeks out then he goes Origin....

Hoy was pretty bad before why not give Toa a run at the back?

 

[Matt23]

Ponga being out, Tiger's might get us again, I have zero faith in Hoy.

 

[Mr_Knightside]

That $50 I put on the Tigers at $2.55 on Tuesday feels pretty good now...

 

[Mr_Knightside]

Assuming Hoy comes in for Ponga surely we have the least experienced backline in the NRL this weekend? Hoy, Toa, Musgrove, Best, Tuala and Crossland wouldn’t have 100 NRL appearances between them would they?

We really need our forwards to dominate in this game and for Brailey to jump out of dummy half whenever he sees something, and if we get a roll on we need to give it to Watson and let him do his thing.

As far as I’m concerned I would settle for Hoy having a safe game tomorrow night. No dropped balls and putting his body on the line if he needs to make a tackle, if he can do those two things then he’s doing his job for the team imo.

 

[Old dog]

They are not great but for effort all those listed 1-7 give it the best they can, sure some are not absolute first grade but effort overcomes many things. If our pack performs then 1-7 will be ok, we will be in the game, prediction, Klem Dan and Crossland to star

Expect to see multiple sin bins tonight due to NRL crackdown in high shots.

Expect to see multiple sin bins tonight due to NRL crackdown in high shots.

Money is on Klemmer or Barnett for the bin then.

 

[Yosh]

I think Sterlo said he expects at least 4 sin bins. We are sort of a soft team now so probably won't be one from us right?

Of course it will be. Someone will run into Saifiti’s shoulder head first and he’ll get 10 to set an example for the weekend.

 

[Jono078]

How's everyone feeling? I do have a good feeling about tonight to be honest.

I said the same thing last week and had some serious rage during the game, so we'll see how it eventuates haha.

[Old dog]

Is swap because Musgrove injured or is it because Hunt is ok

 

[Yosh]

Musgrove should have been the last backliner to get dropped on form. Unlucky!

 

[Jono078]

Wow.

Was going to comment on what a solid start until that.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Dear oh dear

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

That's where you need it FB covering.

 

[Jono078]

That's where you need it FB covering.

I was going to say maybe that’s why Ponga is always defending in the line..

 

[aqua_duck]

Our starts this season have been shocking

 

[The Axe of Druss]

All that hard working defence for a negative result ffs

 

[K-Man]

Why can’t we ever start a game with intensity!? It’s beyond frustrating.
