Round 13 against the Roosters

[Aliceinwonderland]

Mansour returning to this sort of form is a big surprise. Although thankfully he hasnt been asked to contest many bombs. Teams would prefer to target To'o.

Roosters as you would expect backed Tupou over him. Surprisingly the height difference never really hurt us. Not often a winger could give away a foot to his opponent and not be punished for it.

Josh though has just been pumping out his metres again like he used to. Easily his best couple of games since his face was busted. It's great to see.

To'o is a great partner in wings for Sauce. They tend to feed off each other. Quite competitive in doing the dirty hard runs out of the opposition's backyard. Something that Dallin had refused to do with any reguarlity in 2019. Also like sauce a tough bugger doesn't mind the rough and tumble. Sauce looked like a person who'd been given a new lease on life on Sunday.

No 3 is the younger brother of christian chrichton his name is Stephen chrichton he will play 1st grade at some stage in the next yr or 2.Got size footwork speed and can finish off a movement hea normally a centre but played wing last week outside jed Cartwright hence the reason we might be moving blake on.

I wonder if sauce could ever pull a lewi and slide into the second row.

Panfa, in your opinion, would he be as good as a young Michael Jennings?

Aside from the obvious dodgy calls Cummins was not the least bit interested in keeping the Roosters back 10. It was common for defenders to be 2-3 metres offside all game and they were the ones closest to Cummins. It was actually quite bizarre.

Bring in simple technology and have fans in the stands take snaps when the ruck is in line with them. If they produced continuous proof that it is happening (like as if they don't) they'll be forced to address this problem.

Some of our guys look elite here:

Be fair, we were playing a Rugby Union side.

Yeah I have no idea the quality of the opposition at that level. I rely on people here for reserve grade news.

 

[Panfa]

Id say stephen chrichton could be as good as a young michael jennings but different types of players one was short robust and explosive the other is tall skillful athletic both smashed it up in the lower grades.

Well mate, our opposition (Norths) are two wins behind us in 5th.

Very nice effort in that case.

It was 1st v 3rd at the time it was played

 

[franklin2323]

Very nice effort in that case.

They were weakened a bit due to Roosters but so were we

How good was M Jennings coming through the grades though. Granted I haven’t seen anything of Crichton but Jennings consistently ripped sides apart. Better then any kid I’ve seen.

I think at the same stage Stehphen is a bigger frame. Seems quite tall too. Has footwork, and able to create something from seeming nothing.

Jennings has had a pretty good career. 140+ tries & still going. Imagine if he was consistent....

Looks like he’s going to get a 1 year extension with the Eels so good on him.

He was pretty bloody good for us when he hit FG. He didn’t lack talent, he was lazy in his last years here.

I wish he could get an extended run in the first grade 17 instead of Leota. With a few games in a row, I feel he could offer way more than Loeta can.

Lets hope Jed stays fit and gets a shot.
