Round 15 Vs The Warriors

[betcats]

Waqa is a better athlete than Naden but Brent has natural footy instincts and skills that Waqa lacks completely, I think we are seeing which is more valuable.

 

[OldPanther]

Not going off about Waqa mate. I wish him well, but such efforts were becoming few and far between.

I didn't mean to imply you were doing that.

It was a very professional performance. He cut out a lot of the garbage errors he has been making and for the most part threw some very good offloads. Not all of them were needed but the ones that came off worked out well for us.

He usually gets in behind the markers but it was noticeable today. He really showed To'o what it takes to play that kind of game. I'll happily concede his errors in the air if he keeps up performances like that.

Both Sauce and Yeo carrying bad shoulders too. Both re-injured themeselves during an opposed session during the week.

 

[forby]

Have we scored 19 three weeks in a row?

Yes! And Maloney has kicked a FG in the last 4 games!

 

[OldPanther]

Grants spot went to Kenny, not Naden.

My mistake.

Whennwill Blake be fit?
Also how do you rate Parras 1-5. Maybe I am bias butnI see it as best in comp.Halves and forwards not so much.....

Guth
Sivo
MK
Blake
Ferguson

Your back 5 will be excellent with Fargo, Blake and Sivo.

220m for sauce.

What an effort. This is why I've never said a bad word about him

One thing this game highlighted again is all our attack is on the left (or centre), we have nothing on the right. Hope we can address that.

Great, gutsy win and I have bucketed the team for their earlier games but they deserve high praise this time. A couple of points:

• Is Luai carrying an injury? He seemed to be made of glass and refused to take a tackle. He had a very poor game and didn't use his footwork and speed when the Warriors were tiring. I know it is only early in his career, but I am concerned he is not as good as we think he is. Is he answer when Maloney leaves?
• Once again Yeo got burned at centre. Hiku got on his outside enough to be able to get the ball down. When is Cleary going to start picking the right players in the right positions? Just ridiculous with Whare on the bench.
• RCG, 44 minutes, 86m 31 tackles at 83%. What is going on with him? Another distinctly average game.
• The score flatters the Warriors. 11 Penalties, 2 men in the bin, a try awarded that was clearly not a try. Even with all that they couldn't beat us.
• Credit to Cleary, he has got team spirit where it should be after a decidedly poor start to the year and a team looking like it didn't want to be there.

RCG was off at the end too must of been hurt. On Luai I don't rate him as a half yet. I'd like to see him somewhere else going forward

Edwards was getting more involved. I thought Whare was trying stuff with ball in hand so maybe it can develop

Everyone on that side is defensive: Cleary, Yep, Whare.

Yeah i noticed that today

Whare was a constant offload threat at least.

 

[Abacus]

Yep, I'll never forget Timmy, but can you imagine Waqa doing what Naden just did?

Waqa who?

 

[Vicpanther]

Waqa who?

That was my thoughts to. If both were in the top 30 Blake would have struggled to regain his position that's for sure.

Who charged down the kick to put us into better position?

 

[billypilgrimnz]

I checked the score on my phone while out cycling and saw it was 18 all going into extra time. I knew we would win because Cleary and Maloney are clutch field goal exponents that we are lucky to have.

 

[unKwn]

scored 19 points for the last 3 games... won our first prem in 91, second in 03... the year is currently 2019, aiming for our 3rd prem...

surely i’m not reaching

Liam Martin I think.

 

[Dave's mate]

Liam Martin I think.

He also turned the game in the first half charging down a kick for no reason

Sorry to burst your bubble, but we won our first premiership in 91

I thought that was Kenny?

Both have plenty of ticker but still look like reserve graders to me. 2020 is their year.
