Round 2 Vs Tigers

Just a good punch in the throat away from becoming a future immortal

Moylan came across and stopped the inside pass. He isn't as bad as people make him out to be

Agree 100%. His defence is fine.

 

[TheFrog]

Moylan truly is a Locky clone. Both cant tackle but that didn't stop him being an all time great

Lockyer could tackle but doing so used up all his juice. Hence the need for Carroll to protect him.

 

[Fangs]

Moylan's defence is okay.

He definately stepped up a gear after his Origin debut last year. It was noticeably better in my eyes.

Jarryd Hayne looks laconic in defence, but has made some unbelievable saves during his career. On that subject, here is a show stopping tackle from the Plane last year during his Titans debut.

At 28 secs:

And another unbelievable save from 09 against the Dogs.

At 2.45 secs:



Moylan looks laconic and gets a similar result. Definately one part of his game that needs some improvement. Watch Slater behind the play the ball, he almost never stops moving.

He can also take a look at Lachlan Coote who is a couple inches shorter but a far much better defender. Who remember his killer tackle on Willie Mason at Penrith?

I remember that tackle. The chooks couldn't take a trick that day. Pretty sure that was the same game Anasta played fullback.

 

[Blues Riff]

On that. I noticed Moylan is starting to get a bald patch

Ha yeah, Gonski within 5 years.
I thought his defence was pretty good. Haven't seen any stats.
Ha, damn sure he didn't let any tries in.

Had $500 on us that game. Good times

 

[betcats]

Yeah he's def thinning on top haha

 

[soc123_au]

I reckon he can probably afford a few bottles of Grecian 2000 if he wants to hang on to those boyish looks.

Ive wanted to see that. But their are no signs we will ever try it.

Moylan isnt ever moving to 6 either. Not with Griffin atleast. Hes the only player he won't give a crack it seems.

I was wrong about this. He really would give anyone a go.

How good was it beating a top 4 team by such a margin though? Second place on the ladder at the time. So seeing deadlast (us) smash second place was really impressive.

Takes some amazing coaching to get such a victory.
