R5 v Eels

[N.C.]

Interesting mix-up in the pack with Lovett to start and Sue to the bench. Any ideas what's behind this? Like the look of Lovett but I thought Sue was pretty much holding his own...

1. Tedesco
2. Naiqama
3. Simona
4. Lawrence
5. Richards
6. Moses
7. Brooks
8. Woods
9. Farah
10. Galloway
11. Sironen
12. Lovett
13. Taupau
14. Halatau
15. Seumanufagai
16. Buchanan
17. Sue
18. Santi

The only reason i can think of is to have him try and maintain the forward roll on that we have been establishing with Woods, Taupau and Galloway rolling forward but always seem to lose it when they come off.

Sue is also probably more of a middle forward as opposed to an edge forward I reckon (even though I hate that terminology)

 

[N.C.]

Yeah that's right he played in the thick of it a little more last week didn't he...

Think you are right, to maintain the roll forward in the middle. Lovett more an edge runner. Sue is a power middle runner. Best suited at 13 if not for Taupau.

 

[Tiger05]

I like that pack a lot. I think you have Sue and Taupau rotating at lock and playing up the middle. It gives us two edge backrowers who can hopefully make a bust.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Sue was going ok on the edge but probably a victim of doing so well in the middle last Friday night. He had only just mentioned how much he was enjoying starting and the extra minutes.

 

[benched tiger]

Yep Sue is unlucky not to be in the starting side,however he will provide great impact once he comes on in the middle.

 

[BuffaloRules]

Terrible, dour game but will obviously take the win.

Defence is much improved, but the other side of the ball is struggling...

Hopefully their attack will click soon...

Poor coaching, poor captaining , poor execution , poor refereeing , poor weather .. utter shit that got us 2 points .

Hard to disagree, we were much better last week. Not taking much out of that apart from the 2 points

Dour Conditions. Only positive was the win. We don't look dynamic in defence but for very long periods in all games this year we have made the opposition forwards and as a result the backs look very ordinary.

Once the attack clicks we will look good enough for a top eight finish I think.

 

[Tiger05]

We won. We've been good and lost. I'd rather the win.

3 - Richards
2 - Taupau
1 - Lawrence

Rowdy's best game in an age. Still has a lot of improving to do though.

 

[Rhyno]

Karma will comeback and tigers will be a bottom 4 side

[macnaz]

Poor post

You are a dikhead

Explain ?

 

[hutch]

One of the worst games I've seen, will take the two points but we are lucky parra were so woeful. Woods man of the match for mine. Nobody else came close. Moses has a hell of a lot of work to do!

Shut the f**k up idiot.
