Round 22 v Plucked chooks

[mxlegend99]

Griffin really f**ked up not moving Moylan when he dropped Soward. Cartwright has done some brilliant stuff since. But he has done a lot of awful things too. Trying to overplay his hand as that 6 makes him feel like he MUST create things every touch.

Its a miracle we are in position for a finals spot still. So many crazy decisions this year and yet some individual brilliance has kept us alive despite very few good team efforts and defence that looks awful against even the worst attack.

Hahha. Reminds me of the tale about Harry Rednapp when he was coach coach of West Ham. A player got hit on the head and was dragged off the pitch for treatment. The trainer runs frantically over to Harry. "Guvnor, he is concussed he doesn't even know who he is". Harry replied "tell him he's Pele and put him back on".....

Pearce confirmed out..

 

[Kilkenny]

About to head off down to the game. Feeling flat, no idea what to expect tonight.

I would be less worried now that Pearce is out. From what I've seen from Matterson and Watson, they're kicking game is not great. We should be winning this now, no excuses. Much does expect on us though of course.

If use don't win then don't deserve to play finals - Simple as that.

I am not sure coach had many option for 5/8. If he moves Moylan who plays fullback- Without whare and hiku the backs are thin. And why does a number on the back make a difference-In attack Moylan is playing like a 5/8.

 

[umina panther]

Because while hes playing 5/8 in attack no one is playing fullback in attack and then we have Bryce running around not having a clue what hes meant to be doing.

 

[Nealo 12]

Surely we get the chocolates tonight , much better side on paper than the chooks !

 

[mxlegend99]

There isnt a softer defensive line in the game than ours. It cracks so easily.

Mansour shouldn't have offloaded on the zero tackle though. Huge momentum changer.

 

[umina panther]

Playing awful. A half decent side would be beating us by 20

 

[betcats]

Good half only started watching at 6 all tho. Cartwright should not be playing in the halves wtf are we doing look at his touches in their twenty tonight that I saw, shit kick on fourth tackle, knock on with massive overlap outside him, and a one or two momentum killing runs, dafuq are we doing with him there Griffins an idiot Moylan to 6!

Holding the ball, Defense is garbage as usual

 

[mxlegend99]

Blake had a bad missed tackle early. But has really been fired up in attack and saved a try at the end.

Cleary kicks so well and runs the ball. Scored a nice try.

Wallace and our props are soft as f**k up the middle. That's where we really are not close to defensively sound. A slight step and we are beaten. An inside pass and we are beaten.

 

[age.s]

I dunno, I think we've been ok. Missing too many tackles but nothing new there. We're dangerous enough with the ball to put a few more on them.

We should kick on but I'm pavlovs fan this year. Seen us get into a close one too many times.

 

[betcats]

Great play Carty never doubted you son.

 

[mxlegend99]

This second half has been great so far.

 

[age.s]

I could watch that try all day. Absolutely glorious.

 

[betcats]

Blake needs to Pass more

 

[betcats]

Yeo is becoming a very good player, he has been getting better all year. Bending the line back more this year, 21 and played 50 games already.
