Round 3 V Newcastle

[Smug Panther]

Yeah we need to sign a hooker. We stuffed up losing Api but we'll move on

This was his 1st NRL pre season

That is the issue should we not go in with a recognised 9 next year

Makes sense just thinking out loud based on thoughts posted here. Like I said I don't know much of him.

Not sure if this has already been said but just read Ponga is out

He is playing long minutes now. That is good for looking at him handling the defensive side of it

Just checked out some stats and they are decent enough. Not sure how it would transfer to NRL

58 tackles
4 missed
10 runs
56m
1 try
2 try assists
6 tackle breaks
2 line break assists
1 line break

I could be wrong about that, I can't find post now, may have been a post regarding last week's game I read. Sorry guys

May in for To'o - Good choice
Fish named too

 

[Whino]

Cleary named. Let the mind games begin.

Fish named in his normal spot. Maybe some physio helped him.

But why? Trying to trick Newcastle into losing in round 3 haha

I say why not ?

Fish is also named. It's fun and games. Putting the opposition team in doubt about the team's make up.

Like many who have seen big Eddie in his limited NSW Cup appearances he has been a tad underwhelming but from what I have read he was pretty good on the weekend. I would love him to succeed, big body should be able to do some damage even if only for 25 minutes or so. His lateral movement worries me, could be a liability to our defensive structure.

We can't have a bench of Chris Smith hopgood salmon Kenny we will get monstered

Because he plays these games that often that when he needs to it doesn't work.

Knights are doing the same thing really - they've named Ponga and Saifiti - and both could easily drop out.

Easy to forget too, that they're guaranteed to be missing 3 starters (Klemmer, Brailey and Fitzgibbon). Even if Fish and Cleary don't play, we should still be too good for them.

1000% our defence and the class of Yeo gets us home

Coaches only have a few times this stuff can work a year. doing it every week ruins it

I grab for a bucket and the imodium every time this fairy tale comes up.

Thank Goodness Ivan 'saw' the light and did this.......

What a magnificent film clip. Quite risque for its day. Old Blue Eys left his mark on Nancy thats for sure. I also quite like Jackson.
