Round 16 v Warriors

[Oldpanther86]

I'm back after a few days holiday for being a naughty boy again. You can all thank the wonderful @soc123_au for my continual presence on LU.

I have a good feeling about this weekend Pamfers 13+

He made an impassioned speech to the other mods.

Im not as bullish as the rest of you. But it has been a while since our depth has pulled out one of those "holy shit what a performance" moments against more fancied opposition. They're well overdue at this point.

Yeah I don't have much hope but there's always the chance they play one of those insanely good games after being embarrassed Vs nights. Surely Laurie has a point to prove after being arguably worst on ground.

This is kinda where I'm at.

We're a much better prospect than the Knights game. For a start, we have 3 of our top 4 second rowers available (up from 0), which balances our pack, and allows bench props to stay bench props.

If Laurie can take his first 4-5 receptions cleanly, and maybe break a tackle or two, I think he'll be OK.
It's the games where he makes a mistake early where he really goes to shit.

Liam Henry at second row is the stuff of nightmares

Laurie made mistakes against the Knights, but stopping Lucas from scoring on the break close to half time was an epic play that went a way to making up for them. There are definitely diamonds in the rocks there.

He's a fine enough first grader when on its just getting him to do it consistently.

We will be lucky to score any points. Ivan confirmed Brad Schneider will be halfback. Daine Laurie will be fullback. Basically the same side that Knights pumped.

Warriors will put 50 on them.

Where did he confirm?

This time we have PAPALII,GARNER,SORENSEN & Geyer if needed available.

 

[betcats]

Well i think there are a few guys with something to prove after the knights game, hopefully they can deliver. Will be a stronger team around them with Paps and Garner back.

Correct me if i am wrong but Henry got 3 game so will be missing yeah? Def needs to earn some trust back in cup IMIO. Massive let down of the team.

 

[age.s]

Yeah, Henry should be back. Hoping for a response similar to Sorro who looked much better after 3 weeks off.

On paper we're not that far away in the middle or the edges, particularly if Leota and Tago fire up. The spine is the mismatch, while this year they've generally found ways to win games and weve done the opposite.

Tago has been more solid with every passing game but where is the bloke who used to break tackles at will?

 

[Panfa]

Once again chances of us winning this game without 6 of our top players is very slim,but for gods sake turn up ready to play and have a decent crack.Id be very disappointed if it's 24-0 ht and our defence is paper thin.

 

[Frankus]

He used to regularly get clean, early ball. Rarely happens anymore. We’d rather turn a middle or edge back inside or hit the edge lead runner. We are very easy to read and defend against when that’s all we ever do

 

[luv my panfas]

Make him captain and let them play some attacking football Warriors won’t know what’s hit them

Yo! What happened?? Hahaha

 

[Stinkfinger]

Koloamatangi has been injured and no longer 19th man for SOO 2, Smith becomes the new 19th man.

So if that means Smith now has to fly to Perth, does he become unavailable for the Warriors game?

All Origin players are available for the round following. It's just a matter of getting there.

 

[Stinkfinger]

It's a much better side than the Knights ran through. We have actual second rowers now.

Grade 2 crusher, 2 games, first offence, early guilty. Don't play him out of position.

It won't matter if Laurie and Schneider play like they did
