Round 6 v St George (Team List)

[BrotherJim05]

I seriously just cant believe our injuries. This happens too often witg our team and im f**king over it. So this is now our entire roster of front rowers injured? Our starting 4 5 6 7 9 and 2 back rowers. This is just ridiculous. I knew this year would be a challenge but we arent even able to take a good crack at it. We all talk about buying new players but maybe we should think about new conditioners or medical staff ffs

Moltzen had an entire shit year but some now call for him to keep his spot after a few decent performances. Tedesco has a couple of ordinary games and the same experts want him dropped. Warren Ryan was a great coach - about 20 years ago. Nowadays he's a dribbler on the radio. Your argument must be pretty weak if it's solely based on some off the cuff remarks by a radio commentator.

You would think a former prop wouldn't use a centre as a prop.

Thus ending your stupid thought process.

Wok is a f**king idiot who like many fail to recognise that Lawrence is f**king done. He is one of, if not the worst centre running around in the comp right now. He constantly leaves his winger in 2 or 3 on 1 situations with 10 - 15 of space to cover

Correct. But stupid trolling coupe only listened on the radio so he wasnt able to see with his own eyes.

Anger directed at Wok is misplaced. He is only the messenger, a message by the way other teams have received.

What is his motivation for labelling Tedesco turnstyles? After all, Ryan introduced Brasher to first grade at 17 or 18.

He's not a messenger

He's a commentator.

A commentator who seems to nod off for periods of the game

Maybe you guys should start another thread about the virtues of the Wok...seriously who gives a f*ck.

That was a crushing loss. Lawrence is absolutely finished. The only positive I can see is that finally we're picking a bigger side. Those new polynesian boys were great I thought.

We could have done with Benji's creativity a few times.

Robbie was epic, although we really should have gone for that field goal straight away.

Moltzen played really well again. Teddy can't be dropped though, he looks really dangerous. It's a conundrum.

 

[benched tiger]

Its hard to swallow that we did not set up and take the field goal opportunity,this situation keeps repeating itself in close games,the sooner the WT play smarter the better our results will be.

Marshall, despite his indifferent start to the year, was a huge loss yesterday. The conditions would've suited him particularly later in the game as fatigued kicked in and gaps started to appear in St George's defensive line. Sironen was a good replacement but he squandered a few chances by passing to the wrong man which is hardly surprising given his inexperience. Anasta gets a lot more involved in the halves although he lacks the finesse and vision to pose much threat. That leaves Farah to shoulder most of the responsibility for our attack.

 

[moller]

We were setting up for the FG when Moltzen knocked on from dummy half.

 

[Matchball]

We had at least 5 chances to win it and just gave the ball up.
We just sucked in the last 8 mins. So painful to watch.

 

[R2Coupe]

The game was lost with the our inability to catch the ball near the try line and also two soft backline tries on our left wing and centre. Anything which happened after that is irrelevant. Tedesco and Lawrence need to fix their defence.

 

[gronkathon]

It doesn't matter who is on that left edge in the wing, half or second row slots. The same hole is always presenting itself in games to attack.

lets call it tha Lawrence void

 

[benched tiger]

What ever happened to standing outside your man in defence,the sooner our ouside defenders try this the better our wide defence will be.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

What ever happened to standing outside your man in defence

that depends on the defensive structure of the team and who they are playing.

If it's sliding that means the players (most) are around the playing area so the opposition has more defenders in front of them, when going straight up. If they, the attackers move the ball wide the defense moves in that direction, that's sliding. Marshall plays well against this type of defense as he can get around the bigger players and with his speed set up his outside players, at least he use to :roll: Rugby always said that they played inside their man whilst league played outside.

Benched Tiger, you could also ask, what ever happened to the half passing to the 5/8 who passes to the inside centre who passes to the outside centre?

What ever happened to the lock, locking the scrums? The hooker, hooking for the ball in a scrum? The 2nd rower playing in the scrum rather than using a back there? the list goes on.

 

[benched tiger]

yep..the good old days....lol
