Round 7 vs Souths

[Whino]

I really think getting Burton into our starting lineup can take the team to another level. Not saying he’s single handily capable of that, but just having another ball player out there will help us snag an extra try or two.

I agree but he can't even get one lousy minute of game time the past 2 weeks.

 

[betcats]

Nado and Fish both had around 240m, can’t split them for motm. Not a great performance in that second half but happy to win.

 

[kinghippo]

Naden 238 meters.

Can we just enjoy the win instead of dissecting the boys.We just come through a 3 game tough run and won 2 out of 3
This is a great squad still learning .We had great controll of this game and will get better and better in the next few weeks
I will finish by saying up the panthers

 

[herbert henry1908]

Naden ran for 238 meters.

 

[Kilkenny]

I’ll go out on a limb and say outstanding performance. Sorry if some are disappointed by that but it was a great win with so much improvement in us. I’m really happy right now.

Dissecting the game is what these boards are about.

I’m thrilled at how we’re going, especially this 3 game stretch against quality opposition. But nothing wrong with discussing strengths & weaknesses.

 

[martielang]

Good solid win.

Thought Tamou was fantastic from the start tonight. JFH is just ridiculous.

Anyone who can’t see the value of Whare, watch the last 10 with Burns at centre. Granted an actual centre would likely defend better.

 

[herbert henry1908]

After we lost to Parramatta like we did, the team could’ve really gone into a slump. But instead they’ve backed up with two wins in a row. That shows some real character.

 

[mxlegend99]

He played really well, but his attacking game wasn’t great outside of his own try. Really think he needs to run the ball more.

His kicks in play were perfect. He threw a beautiful cutout pass for Crichton / Naden which ended up getting Mitchell binned.

Andrew Johns has a hard on for that game. He controlled it start to finish.

 

[kinghippo]

Crichton really stepped his defence up tonight, he is improving each week.
We did well after a tough few weeks, I am hating those set restarts though.

Went through a tough 3 weeks against quality position and were currently in 1st for the time being at least. A lot easier run over the next 3 weeks and it was pretty obvious some of our lads had some niggling injuries tonight so I agree it’s a great win. 9 day turn around will be much welcomed I think.

 

[chrisD]

You are obviously astute just of the game.

Two top sides slugging it out, we got the job done but yeah it was obviously a stinker of a game.

Like you I am so disappointed!!!!!

What?

Yep, Whare coming off near the end is the reason Souths were able to score that try near the death. Hope he is ok.

Looks like we might have picked up a few injuries in this game.

 

[Exsilium]

The easy run in the next few weeks has me worried. We can go from superstars to derp in quick succession

That cut out pass was nice.

I don’t want to seem too critical, because he’s a very good footballer. I just don’t think he’s great at getting his teammates across the line with his passing game. His best asset in attack outside of his kicks is his own running game, he should do it a little more instead of those cut back passes.

 

[WestyLife]

He also setup 2 tries... You don't hook the guy who setup your first 2 tries and who didn't cost you anything scoreboard wise.

It's not a hook because he underperformed it looked for a while there he couldn't defend due to discomfort after being hurt in that tackle.

He's earned the 6 in my opinion but we could afford to cover him for a period.

Naden ran for 238m with 87 post contact and a try. Dudes a winger.

 

[Blade23]

Great effort from the boys. An outstanding win. A good kick start for the weekend.

 

[WestyLife]

He played really well, but his attacking game wasn’t great outside of his own try. Really think he needs to run the ball more.

Wasn't the critism that he could only run and had no cutout pass?

His kicks in play were perfect. He threw a beautiful cutout pass for Crichton / Naden which ended up getting Mitchell binned.

Andrew Johns has a hard on for that game. He controlled it start to finish.

He would have had another try assist if Kikau had ran through the line when he put Crichton through a hole as well.
