Rumours and Stuff

Of course they have been bagging ffs

Which player has never been bagged?

It’s because he kills us on 4th tackle. Instead of going out wide in the opposition 20, he takes a basic hit up. Tactics are the reason he’s bagged.

Not twenty minutes without the f**ken ball ffs. It's a freak turn of events and if it happens again I expect any good side to blow the scoreboard out. Our defence just isn't good enough to cope with that much sustained pressure.

Because or coaching or resources?

Was it really 20 mins without the ball? Sure they had a run but 20 mins? Cmon man. The fact is that our defence is not the best. It’s the second worst or worst out of the top 8. If our defence is half decent we would not have been in that position against the Broncos. But defence is attitude and our team is so inconsistent this year from game to game and within the game. If we had turned up against the broncos like how did against the Panthers and Storm, we win. Why can’t we do that m? Why is our defence the worst in the top 8? The answers to those questions is why we lost to the Broncos

Russel will be in the side soon

Might be the replacement for Opacic next year.
One of the only spots where we arent strong if we intend to keep Waqa on the wing.

Jake, Jake, Jake and Jake.
Also said he thought his finger was just dislocated so he tried to put it back in during the game. Said he shouldnt have done that. Probably made it worse. Said hes a quick healer and hopes to be back soon.

He tried to put it back in right in front of me.
Wasn't pretty to watch.

I feel we need to wrap D.Brown up soon. I'm also happy to let Moses go for this to happen.
Yes Moses has better defense but he is still a weak link. Brown is not. I have no issue with this happening. Moses I think has a great long boot and can be dangerous running the ball. But under pressure he doesn't seem to step up and gets flustered. I dont think he will ever change.
Plus I like to prioritise Dylan based on him always being at our club. This is how you build a footy side.

Gutherson in halves could work. JA may end up better then we think or another young half may pop up.
Unsure how strong a side we would have if spent 2 mill on our halves pairing. You need balance.

Definitely agree with all that. I even think that some of our 'power-game' tactics are maybe in place in order to compensate for Moses' shortcomings.

 

[Noise]

Bevan French to the Knights??

 

[lingard]

Anyone know why club is asking me to secure tix for south’s game when I already have season tickets? TIA

They're probably extra keen to have you there, mate.

He doesn't have a good enough money ball to be a million dollar half.

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Three year deal apparently.

Yeah I heard he was screaming in pain. Hes one tough SOB.
Ta.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

I think he has Hindmarsh beat as our best forward in the last 25yrs.

No chance, everyone forgets how good Hindy’s was as he acts like an idiot on Fox…..we struggled whenever Hindy was out…….

he pulled of some big moments too…

[Rocket man]

I see it differently. Things will always go against you in a game. Same as it did yesterday with Manly but they got themselves out of it to the teams credit. Against the broncos though. The teams attitude wasn’t there. If they turned up with the same game aggression as they did against the storm, manly, Penrith we would have smashed the Broncos.

Broncos got some luck. bounce of the ball definitely went their way.

He accepted by mail..Sent them a letter..

 

[T-Boon]

Not really. Hindmarsh was great but by age 25 he was nothing much more then a tackling machine. And his last two years was quite sad watching him go around.

true. He wasn't a good leader either. Had a negative impact on Hayne.

I would also prioritise DB over Moses at this point but I would have Moses as the second backline priority over everyone else currently in the side...especially Gutherson.
People forget how hard it is to find decent halfbacks and how easy it is to find decent fullbacks.
