Match Discussion: Round 3 vs Dolphins @ Kayo Stadium, Redcliffe / Kabi Kabi

[The Silverdale Phantom]

I’m in a prediction mood.. We don’t see Staines all year… I know I know.. but I thought it so I’d better say it just in case

I think we’ll be forced into seeing him.

Because half of the first page of his resume reads

Played for the panthers (before 2025).

As it is:



We are actually higher on the ladder than they are atm.

Well, last week and this week, Staines has been named for the FB role and Mason in the halves in the cup team, so I think the Mason at FB era, might be over.

Well over by design anyway.

When the injuries hit, he might get another opportunity mid season or so.

Lots to work on along with Feledy

Charlie seems to be a better option at present, with strict instructions to catch and hold the ball. He would be very excited to get into firsts.

Plus he’s used smug.

 

[Tiger Ted]

Feledy won’t cut it in the NRL whereas Mason can be decent backup in the halves

 

[WA Tiger]

Yea I meant we won’t see mason for the rest of the year haha

But he's behind Latu and probably Bud if he comes back, purely because what Bud is costing.

This will be a tough game, 6 day turn around with travel after playing in 37 degrees.

The Fins have been very ordinary for mine, the packs been plod and Katoa average. This is now their first home game though and I expect they'll be primed. The back 5 all have points in them and Doeuihi marking Farnworth is a worry.

Looking at the teams I do believe we look stronger and hopefully sunday helped kickstart our attack. Its gone unmentioned but we currently have the best defence in the comp which is a new feeling. I know its only 2 games in but its something Id love to see continue. If Bula plays and we've recovered from sundays conditions we should win this. We have a pretty nice draw to start the year and these are types of games we need to win if we're going to be serious about contending for the finals.

Yes, a worry but hopefully our youthful team will overcome the last game issues about heat.

Perhaps Api might suffer a bit, but TDS has been Ok in his stints.

I think our roster rotation will need to be spot on though.
