Round 25 V Knights

[aquiin]

Nice bonus with Lomax. Knows how to kick off unlike Widdop.

 

[West coast dragon]

I agree wholeheartedly hes tried his guts out since hes been in 1sts......need a few more in the team with his urgency and determination

100%

Credit where it's due well done to the players good performance.

 

[My man Gasnier]

You’re the only spud around here and it’s obvious you are a cocktail with no eyes.

I'm very sorry to disagree with you, mate. But the stats don't lie and neither do the three bombed tries.

Can't drop kick to save his life though.

 

[Lewish33]

Todays game

Did we. Shit must have been topping up more much needed drink when that happened. Doesn't seem to happen much these days though

 

[Tuddy]

Well done boys.

The refs didn't help us.

Nice to see some offloads today and that was the difference. Let's do it even more next week.

Welcome to first grade Zac.

 

[OzDragon]

Good half a game.


Can someone check Fields ass for splinters?

Duplicate post

 

[Mr Red]

Yep Lomax needed to be in the side 3 months ago then he’d probably have the touch to finish that off

Agree. And that’s the problem with the mentality of the coaching staff.... kids will never be ready for first grade usually until half a season AFTER they are in first grade... you can’t wait until they are 100% ready, by that time they are already gone to another club for a chance, and we are left giving guys like Mann and Lafai new contracts.

If broncs win to.play in syd need them to win by 24 or less or more than 32 to play in Sydney.24/32and we are off to brissie -i hope friggin not.

You’re kidding right?
A half decent team would have put 30 on us again...

The upside today was it became more real to the other backs that Lomax could take their jerseys, so they played out of their skin. Dufty's defence was a lot better, Nene scored a great try and got us out of trouble a lot with dummy half runs. Ditto for pereira who also made a great try saving tackle. Lafai was strong in defence, great converting covering tackle on matuatia to save a try with Mann. Hunt was much improved. Great effort by all.

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

Bris will beat manly by 26 so we play them in bris and penrith get a home finals.
Knowing our luck thats a given
Wish we won by 20+ so we finish 5th and a home final guarantee.

Yep i reckon Bris will beat Manly by plenty especially with the incentive of their big home crowd semi......cant agree re knowing our luck weve had opportunity after opportunity and blown it.....you can thank McGrexit to where we ended up on the ladder by his unwillingness to drop players when their form was poor, his poor management of players after Origin and his use of our bench rotation....and i havnt started on his lack of game plans and structures

But dufty is still suspect under their high ball and easily pushed backwards so I’d put pereira at full back and him on the wing pereira hits the line much harder
