Match Discussion: Round 7 vs Wests Tigers @ Scully Park

[PhilGould]

Release Pearce, Watson and Lamb. Cogger and Buhrer are our halves of the future.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Buhrer is incredibly versatile. I'd like to see him do the presser this week.

 

[bad boy bubby]

That win showed a lot of heart, Well done!

 

[perverse]

You beauty. Refs tried to beat us but failed.

To be fair, our errors and KP's goal kicking didn't help, either. We almost clutched defeat from the jaws of victory, really... but we got there. The right team won.

 

[Burns]

I heard torn pectoral muscle for Pearce?

 

[Swarzey]

Those 10 minutes really f**ked us. On the scoreboard and mentally. I love Ponga, still gives me an almighty chub half most of the times he gets the ball but god damn man what happened to his kicking? Was absolutely sweet until last week.

Made it tough for ourselves like usual which feels like the more common trend when we're struggling on the field. Refs didn't help with some awful calls. Hopefully Pearce's injury is more of a burner but he seemed a bit dejected on the bench.

Points are points and we still have 3 more wins than I expected to have at this point. Crazy to think that we're 1 win away from as many as last year and it's only round 7.

I heard torn pectoral muscle for Pearce?

Hope not, that's his season

 

[perverse]

I heard torn pectoral muscle for Pearce?

Oooo that really sucks if true.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

I heard torn pectoral muscle for Pearce?

Schit. I was suspecting something like this given our low injury count. Thought it would just be our luck if ..

 

[NK Arsenal]

We saw the good bad and ugly from SKD tonight.

Hope Pearce isn’t a torn pec like others are saying. I thought he would be in rose pain if that were the case.

 

[Noname36]

I was more relieved than excited at the end of that. It would have been really demoralising for them to lose after scoring more tries.

I much prefer Cogger in the side to Lamb. Both are defensive liabilities but the play didn’t shut down immediately when Cogger got the ball like it does Lamb. Our attack is actually really diverse and we were able to see it tonight without Lamb. That was the best defensive side in the comp too.

 

[Frederick]

Don't players with torn pecs struggle to hold up their arm on that side? He was working at around on the field and didn't look to be in too much discomfort at the end of the game

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Stats ended up close. 50 / 50 possession.
SKD was our best MRM and best of the game.

 

[Johns Magic]

Jamie Buhrer the footballer not the athlete

 

[Frederick]

f**k

 

[Noname36]

f**k

 

[perverse]

Argh no, we don't deserve this. How many major injuries has Pearce had in his career?

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

f**k

Hopefully not.. Fingers crossed

 

[Spot On]

Line speed gave us a chance tonight - we had to do it.

Improved performance in a lot of areas but we still did a lot of dumb shit.

Pearce has gone a decade without a scratch. Moves to Newy - tears his f**king pec off.

Lol.

Fingers crossed it aint too bad cause the alternative is diabolical.

 

[Bartwah]

Did we let the wrong junior half go next year?
