Match Discussion: Round 20 vs Cowboys @ Leichhardt Oval

[The unknown]

No celebrations but that was a solid half of footy

I am finally excited about our attack again, Mbye and Momi have been really good. Also I am a harsh critic of Farah lately but he's had a blinder

Good half, would have been better if the ref's refereed it both ways.

I said about six weeks ago I saw a few things in our attack that were just slightly off, things are starting to come together now. Play the ball speed has been excellent. We’re still missing too many tackles, but scramble has been good

Great pass from Brooks for Momo try

I thought you’d pick that one up...All 3 guys in studio couldn’t see that for 2nd disallowed try Brooks was blocked from tackling his man so Mbye had to come back in and defend Brooke’s man thereby leaving his man free to finish off the try ..that’s not the standard shepherding but had the same effect ....that’s very well called ....those 3 commentators were walked through that during the bunker description .......suppose they hired to talk not listen

Thought Mbye was good but there was a point we’re Mbye and Benji was basically fighting at dummy half which I found interesting.

We will need to be switched on in the second half though. First to get the win and second and hopefully to boost our F/A

The fox commentary are calling that disallowed try a try, but I called it straight away not only was Mbye held up Brooks was in a position to cover the next man and allow Mbye to release. It was a definite obstruction as far as I’m concerned.

I'm glad the cows have given us a few wake up moments. ...there's experience strike power on that side. We'll have to be better again

Thompson mad brain fade with that kick from Morgan ridiculous. Nearly led to a try saved by Brooksy!!!!

 

[WA Tiger]

Good boy Brooke’s

 

[Pezz70]

Our left side is very very vulnerable

 

[Pezz70]

They need to sort that left side out, they are coming in when they should be sliding and doing it nearly every time. There’s a point where up and in need to slide and trust the inside defenders. That was pretty ordinary that try. A side like Manly with turbo will make them play everytime

 

[Pezz70]

Ahhhhh Benji magic. The old boys have done their jobs tonight

 

[Pezz70]

Nice to see Esan grab a double, and Momo can kick ‘em

 

[Pezz70]

Great try to Lawrence nice ball from Brooks

 

[Pezz70]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

 

[The unknown]

We are now 7th lads

Pending on a few results, we could still be in the 8 by weeks end

 

[Pezz70]

Brooks - 1 line break, 2 try assists, 2 tackle breaks, 2 line break assists, 15/16 tackles, 276 kick metres. NO errors.

The little fellas growing up

Well, well, well. Good call leaguelegend, a few tweaks here and there and well who knows.

Outstanding platform lay’d by the forwards, not a fault by any of them plus the fact that Garner and Clark were not sighted in the 2nd half (I think).

It was good to see the faces on the players after each try, they were certainly happy for and with each other and that shows that as a squad, they are a happy bunch.

Garner had the flu apparently and Clark is being blooded not flogged which is good if they can do it that way
