[Matty Bhoy]

Skase!!!

Christopher?

 

[Gherkin]

Not our best performance but a great win, we needed that. Kudos to BA for bringing Asi in. Also interesting to see that when we lost a winger we didn’t put kelma in the centres. A few on here seemed to think that was the only option.
Couple of big weeks coming up, if we can jag a few wins before Mitch gets back we might be in a decent position.

 

[hindy111]

Good gutsy scrapp win. But lots of work to do.
2 points is 2 points at this stage

I'm lactose intolerant and it's only half past five ffs!!!

Yes, but for u it’s generally comes out the wrong end

Good win, actually given the circumstances great win.

The longer the game went the better we played, and the worst the Cowboys went.

Great to see us turn up with a performance like that. We needed that one and I think we ust wanted it more.

Gutho wasn't letting us lose that one. Enormous leadership today.

100% The King is our most important player bar none.

 

[Gherkin]

He still gets caught out sometimes but I’m liking what I see from Russel. Always gives 100% and seems to be slowly improving each week. Looking forward to watching his combination continue to develop with Penisini

Also Matterson played like a person who’s been asked if he wants to go to Dragons instead

 

[Bandwagon]

f**k yeah Parra are the bestest. Bea Arthur imminent!!

How the f**k did you spell immortal for spell check to pump out that?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

A few on here seemed to think that was the only option.

There's always multiple options. Each has pros and cons. There are no solutions, only trade offs.

 

[Stevie]

I watched the game laughing at how bad we are. Sure we beat them but we’ve kicked the can down the road imo.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yes, but for u it’s generally comes out the wrong end

They don't call me pou for nothing

 

[Bandwagon]

Lane was our best

*one of

But yeah, very solid. Didn't get great ball, but plenty of post contact meters every run.

I think he looks to be slowing up a lot tbh.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Randomness is a factor in every game.

 

[DaveMc]

I think he looks to be slowing up a lot tbh.

Yep, and the tricks in his attack bag are starting to dwindle too. Defence is still very good, but he very seldom looks like a threat in attack. Through a lot of the game I was thinking to myself what we could be with someone like Drinkwater at fullback.

I've wondered how Gith would go at hooker/ utility is his twighlight years

 

[Wally21]

How much better is it when Parra win!!!

He has been garbage all season
