R23: Tigers vs Raiders

[Mal Meninga]

when did TLL get injured?

When he did his knee vs Souths a while back.
It hasn't fully recovered.

 

[Boing Boing]

Was in the CT this morning.

We shouldn't have brought Tom LL back so early then. Now is the time we need him.

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

you could tell something was wrong..he didnt run like he did before the injury, anyone see that fend he did on the broncos?

he just threw the guy.

 

[hrundi99]

I'd thought he was definitely better because he wasn't wearing a brace and he was running with more aggression...

Oh well...

 

[julian87]

Any idea on how long TLL is out for? Who would you start with besides Kahler?

I think Hodgson and Graham will be ruled out tbh. Hope neither of them are tbh, because with TLL out injured there isn't anyone as good as Hodgson to replace him.

 

[thickos]

Lame team, especially Frawley! He's horrible and should be sent back to the Qld cup where he belongs!

 

[Raider Ultra]

Just re-affirms my thoughts that the Tigers are specials this week.

 

[Raider_69]

re affirms my thoughts that elliott is a f**king idiot

 

[skeepe]

Seems to be a similar story over at the Tigers' forum... some seem to think we're specials because their coach has dropped those who are playing well and replaced them with his favourites while also ignoring those who are in superb form in Premier League.

Wait, did I just get the teams mixed up?

 

[Raider Jack]

Elliot, we wanted to leave you at Penrith. Now being burnt at the stake is too good for you. Piss Kahler off at least!

 

[hrundi99]

What did Kahler do wrong apart from dropping that one pass...?

 

[Christmas Ape]

Kahler missed 4 tackles and made 4 runs for 20 metres.

I reckon there's others more deserving of his spot.

 

[aussies1st]

Hodgson is already ruled out as reported in CT, he'll be back for the Storm game. So Tisle will start (Elliott won't start Weyman) so who takes Tisle spot? Frawley?

 

[hrundi99]

Kahler missed 4 tackles and made 4 runs for 20 metres.

I reckon there's others more deserving of his spot.

Touche...

 

[waltzing Meninga]

IMO I'd put Tilse into the second Row and bring up maybe Williams or Raston

 

[edabomb]

Kahler also threw that one armed pass that went about 10m behind the desired recipient (Mogg), and lost us about twenty metres. He is a nuffy of the highest order IMO.

 

[waltzing Meninga]

*double post *

 

[waltzing Meninga]

Add to that the bombed try, where the pass from Graham landed right in his bread basket, and you have a player trying to fill the giant shoes of Jason Bulgarelli.

I suppose Elliot will claim that he shouldn't fix anything that's not broken, and while the team is winning, its probably better to keep the same (or similar) side on the paddock. The problem is that when things aren't going well, he adapts the same approach.

Nuffies are always going to be a part of an Ellito coached side, and I have accepted it

 

[aussies1st]

I'd bring up Ratson, hes a talent, Williams fitness looks to be a worry still.
