That was brilliant by luke

Luke will be a great replacement for Api in 23. Luke is looking better and better each week.

 

[Iamback]

Staines, iongi, luke, riki all looking good.

Iongi is pretty good. Took him a few games to find his way up there.

Cole too. Holds his own playing out of position, far better as a 7

 

[Kilkenny]

Magpies defence is pretty awful.

Jimmy the Jet on his last legs, literally.

 

[BossleyPanther]

Left at halftime cause we were hungry, but Staines looks top at this level.

Problem is Turuva and Iongi are just as good and play more positions

 

[BossleyPanther]

Can't wait for Turuva tonight. Going to be a tough game with those out.

 

[John Hamblin]

The raiders front rowers both have a good offload. Stop the offloads and minimize their metres and we win!!

Unfortunately stopping offloads is probably the weakest aspect of our defence. Hopefully we're on our game tonight

We could always fight fire with fire and actually offload

 

[unKwn]

Critta is playing

 

[Girds89]

Iongi and staines pick of the backs in cup..both were very good.

Hopgood and luke probs the best of the cup forwards. Riki was good to.

Good. That dope James Phelps was wrong.

Iongi is why Staines will leave

 

[Girds89]

Todays going to be very tough.

Just want to see the boys turn up. If we can be competitive without 3 of our best players and 3 of the best in the game it will speak volumes about where we are at.

If the 17 play with the same intent as the 2nd 40 last week for 80 i think we can do it.

I do feel salmon will be a target on the edge in defence.

Would love to get it done down there.

Even with the injuries. The 17 is strange and could be an issue

Iongi is why Staines will leave

He is more in the laurie mold. Much more natural ball player than charlie.

Charlie really has been very good tho. Personally if im wayne bennett id be signing him up.

Iongi tho is a real talent. Puru coming through too.

I dont see it with lindsay smith tbh. Hes a good solid toiler.. sort of the tim grant sort of style.

Not really the player we need imo. Not when fish is a big minute player who offers way more impact. And lenui and leota provide the punch. Sorensen there too.. eiso is well ahead of him.

Cant help but feel falls should be the 6 today with salmon on the bench instead of turuva.

Falls was again really good today.

Iongi is why Staines will leave

Edwards learning to pass is the reason

 

[Smug Panther]

And let's go headgear Critter!!!

 

[Iamback]

Edwards learning to pass is the reason

Edwards still had him covered.

Iongi has the blistering speed Staines has and can play in the halves, much better for depth purposes
