Match Discussion: Round 21 vs Wests Tigers @ McDonald Jones Stadium

[mozza91]

I'm happy with any news that means less King, Yates and Lillyman.

What has Yates done wrong?

What has Yates done wrong?

What's he done well?

What's he done well?

Tackles hard. More than any of our other forwards.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

I'd rather Yates than King.

I'd rather Yates than King.

And Lillyman

Not trying to hound the guy but he ain't gonna be the forward that gets us into the top 8... I know he is trying his guts out but to me, it just isn't enough. Maybe in another team, where they already have 6 or 7 massive forwards and need someone to plug the gaps. We are so small and Yates offers barely anything in attack. I'm not hounding the guy, I just want to see better standard players turning up week in week out for the team I support.

Maybe this is why Brown doesn’t select him. He’s got a fair bit of ticker and probably offers more than King and Lillyman in defence but I wouldn’t want to see our pack get any smaller than it already is.

Also does anyone know why Ross isn’t in the side? Did he get injured or was he dropped?

Injured. Groin issue

 

[PhilGould]

Ponga and Watson both failed to finish training today. Will have a final fitness test tomorrow but not looking likely.

[mozza91]

After last weeks pathetic effort I had very little confidence in our chances. With Watson out and Ponga unlikely we’re no chance.

With the young blokes, i think its better to ret them than to risk an ongoing problem

The wife was a bit too eager...

 

[PhilGould]

Meaney named in ISP so Ponga looks good to go.

 

[Frederick]

Ponga definitely playing, Cogger playing in halves, Herman to bench, king to start
