yeh I was pretty impressed with Flash last night, mistake free

Yep, he was brillant. The fact we aren't talking about him just shows how good he was.

Defence was great and only made 20 less metres then Semi. He pretty much makes as many metres as semi per run. And pretty of rucking out runs

Do we beat the Dogs last night with Peats and Manu in the side instead of DeGois and Kenny/Gower?

It's a real problem to work out the best way to utilise/rotate our four back rowers when fit - Scott, Ma'u, Edwards and Moeroa. (And that's not including Watmough.)

I'm a fan of Gower and was surprised he wasn't on the bench from Round 1. But when Ma'u returns, who drops out of the 17? Maybe Gower stays in Pricthard's place, if Peats is completely fit? That could be a way of giving Edwards more game time in some way?

Great to have De Gois as such a high standard backup - we're blessed for depth this year, and don't even need Watmough to come back (except maybe for a testamonial game if fit).

I read a quote form Norman the other day, he wants to do his best for BA and prove he is worth a new contract, his attitude was first class and he really wants to stay at Parra

I think it means

i am worth 1M
No you're not, 800k
Well give me till mid year and we look at it then


Then some club comes in and offers 1. 1M. And he leaves

Then we watch 2017 with foz and the product

I don't reckon anyone will offer Norman $1milllion. No one is in a position to do so I reckon

Decks can be cleared to make room, we've seen it done before. Panfas, Tits, Nites & Saints will all be keen for a top quality half to varying degrees.

Tits just re-sign edgy (now have 3 halves in top 25), Knights halves are the least of their problems. Norman won't go to Penrith, he left Broncos as Griffith wouldn't play him in the halves. Dragons maybe.

Imo, yes.

I'm glad Kenny, De Gois and Gower played (and they were awesome), but Ma'u is arguably out form forward, and Peats was on song, too.

Have you seen him during our team song?

This is last week.

This week he goes full genius.

:lol: f**ken lunatic

Haha!

super impressive performance by the team.

We have really turned a corner, we seem a lot more disciplined than we have been in a long time. Our defence is much better than its been for years. Our players look fit and committed and the senior playing group is far more professional, competitive, mentally strong etc than anything since Cayless and Co. We arn't relying on young untested talent to do miracles for us.

Its been very enjoyable so far.

How good has Gordon been cleaning up any half breaks???? Amazing stuff.

Good work to BA and the boys, have built something special. Hopefully we can start locking up some of these guys long term.

Every time the opposition made a break through the middle, he was there and made the tackle.

First time in a long time that i feel like we aren't going to fall to pieces once the opposition gets their act together.

Gordon is all class.

The only reason they won't be able to keep their halves is if they don't cough up the money. Norman would be worth more than both of them, so that would mean choosing to lose one of their halves in favour of Norman

It's been a very long time since I can remember a Parramatta side defending with that intensity and composure for 80mins against a quality side away from home.

Honestly, I'm struggling to think of a similar effort to last nights in recent years.

This team is different.

I like it. I like it a lot.

and Beau Scott is a beast.

Agree 100%.

Imagine when we turn our attention to our attack. With Foz and Norman it could be lethal all over the park.

They got a gun 6 in Martin he will play first grade this year. could be better than benji was.

I suppose it's possible but consider this - by the time Marshall was Te Maire Martin's age he had played 30 NRL games, an Anzac Test and was two months away from winning a premiership.
