Round 15 V Roosters

[Smug Panther]

Need to get rid of Kenny then it is perfect. Kikau can come in for him

Need hooker cover

 

[franklin2323]

Leinu got low minutes but decent impact to crack 110m

 

[franklin2323]

Need hooker cover

Luai. Push Burton in

Kenny only plays hooker and is a waste of a spot once Api gets match fitness

 

[franklin2323]

Edwards just needs gametime.

1st 20 and last 20 were sloppy but that is what we do

Can't agree with this. Burton is doing far too well at centre, easily our best centre

 

[Girds89]

3 points cleary. Kicking game was exceptional. Was in everything
2 liam martin was on a mission
1 Jfh/too. Cant split them. They were very strong as usual

Some charming individuals have decided to troll Nathan. Here's what was said.

Tago can do a job outside Burton/Kikau

 

[Girds89]

God people are bloody hard in dylan.
A few mistakes in the wet greasy conditions but was pretty good otherwise. When you touch the ball as much as he does you will make more mistakes.

He made 216m, 5 tackle breaks.

Make those mistakes against Melbourne and we have just lost another GF

 

[betcats]

Won't change much if we use him the same. The 1st Manly game and Bulldogs game is how we should use him.

Good mix of decoys and getting it in space

Just gives him a chance to come into the game when we have some momentum and maybe play against some tired defenders etc, just need to get some confidence into him for the back end of the year.

Critta had games at fullback where he made numbers like that and still got hammered here for the couple of errors he made.

 

[Smug Panther]

My comment saying drop him was mostly hyperbole but I be moving on from him next year 100%. Add some ballplaying from a fullback and we'll be unbeatable

nates got it
Yeah baby he’s got it

I’m your smuggie
I’m your fire
At your desire

dum ta da tum dum

The thing with Edwards is at his best he is awesome but he’s a confidence player and when it goes it goes over multiple weeks, he will string 2 or 3 games together where he makes a couple errors and looks real down on form and confidence like the last few weeks.

Exactly what my comment on him was getting at. A lot of good players are that confidence dependant type. It's not an insult.

Kenny goes well as a running forward he can play minutes there if Api plays 80.

It is too predictable for defences. Also it is expectations v WT in 80mins. He gained 144m.

In 67mins last week 107m..

Tonight in 80mins. Martin gained 119m yet no one thinks he had a bad game.

If tonight is the style the side wants to play. I mean by turning the backrower inside rather and using the backrower only a decoy.

Then certainly Martin is your man but when Kikau comes on you either get him one on one with little guys again or you need to adjust expectations

He can play lock only. Say Crichton goes down or Luai then you have to move guys anyway.

This is the sort of stuff that has got May so many games in the 17. It is hard to get the balance

Martin was one of best tonight there is no doubt about that. Kikau has just been lacking his usual impact since about a month into the season imo.
