Non Penrith games

[MrBlack]

Another cracking game. Really enjoyed it. Nice to see real contests. Even better to see the Raiders lose.

yep Raiders lose again. Whose fault will it be this week?

f**k me there are some mouth breathers over at the kennel. Quite a few decent ones as well. But their tards are up there with the best.

Yeah some think the refs rob them every game without fail and a bunch of hypocrites over the Burton stuff. They deliberately don't care about what's right or wrong just what suits them.

Manly rolling the tigers easily 34 to 6 .We got them next week not the easy game it wS last time.With tommy turbo they will give us a real run

The way the Tigers are playing at the moment, Maguire's job must be under threat. He is in his third season and the trend is not upwards. It is hard to see where any of the players under him have improved. If anything, Luke Brooks looks worse.

I am no Maguire hater, he has won a premiership so he clearly knows what he is doing. However, sometimes the skills and leadership style you have doesn't suit the environment you find yourself in. It doesn't mean you are useless, just the wrong fit at that particular moment in time. Maybe the Tiger's need a different type of leadership to progress.

How long do you go on blaming the roster you have inherited? Brooks was Dally M halfback under Ivan. At the moment he is on a police missing persons list. Benji looks like Joey Johns under Bennett, Maguire ditched him. Momoroski is surely better than at least one of the Tiger's current centres. Maguire binned him. Can he turn this around?

Double Post - Website is slower than Eisenhuth at the moment.

The Tigers only blame others... the moment that changes they will improve

Billy Burns starting today.

Hook is starting Bird @ Halfback. Hmm...

Hook is starting Bird @ Halfback. Hmm...

And Billy Burns is making his debut for St George.

Hook is starting Bird @ Halfback. Hmm...

In his time with us he loved to tinker with his halves. In only 3 seasons:

Jamie Soward
Peter Wallace
Te Maire Martin
Nathan Cleary
Bryce Cartwright
Tyrone Peachey
Matt Moylan
Tyrone May
James Maloney... who was the only player he would stick with after Nathan Cleary.

It won't be that bad at Dragons though. Norman and Hunt will be picked if fit and any other decisions will be determined by injury most likely. But crazy halves decisions are certainly not new for Hook. Even at Broncos he loved moving guys around. This year seems his most settled so far. He truly looks to have learned from his mistakes with us.

Manly looked good today with Tommy Turbo.

We will need to turn up to play for 80 min unlike a month ago.

He's an amazing player. Turns a shit side into a good side. Would love to see what he could do in our side. As good as Dylan Edwards is, Tommy Turbo is just on another level when he's fit.

Unfortunately that's not often these days. But the more games he misses against us the better.

The dragons on paper have a forward pack to match most .But unlike on paper they are super soft up the center.One step forward 2 steps back for the dragons getting hammered 28 to 6

 

[Smug Panther]

We play at 80% and we win. They simply don't have the cattle to match us

Burns looks super passive - not getting involved in anything (that being said, the Dragons have been going down their left mostly in attack)

 

[franklin2323]

Same as last year the top sides are too good. Getting a log jam middle of the table though

He is a left side player. Playing on the right outside a makeshift half

Mate be honest. That Tigers Roster is rubbish and a good chunk of it was inherited.

Every year my old school mates and I go to the central Coast for a weekend away and last year it was the final round. We watched pretty much all the games together.

When it came to the Tigers we analysed their team. Other than Nofa, there is not one player on their entire team that top teams from that year (Storm, Panthers, Roosters) would want in their starting side. There was not one player on that team that would even make the Panthers Bench.Their pack is absolute garbage.

I went to another mates place today to watch this game with him and made the same point. His response was: Tamou goes well. He made my point...he was ours last year.

This year the Tigers are barely any better aside from Daine Laurie and Tamou. In fact they lost their best player from last year in Harry Grant...and he wasn't even their's to begin with.
