With Greig starting? Or Greig and Paulo both on the bench?

None of your business FFS...

Violence is never the answer ffs. That's the first thing they teach merkins in the army.

Which army? The Tibetan one?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Because they had all the ball ffs. Earlier this year they had 47% of the ball and he made 5 runs in 41 minutes. He's a cat.

That’s pretty funny. You obviously don’t watch the games do you? By you claiming Leota being a cat, doesn’t really say much for your pack of plods does it.

The Salvation Army.

No he doesn’t, he only claimed yesterday to hardly have the time to watch our games.
Leota is top shelf

I agree with the call to put Junior on the bench, starting when Reg is back. Need good defensive props to start.

We have three in the top 50 for PCM (per game): https://www.nrl.com/stats/players/?competition=111&season=2023&stat=1000112

Your wingers are better front rowers than Leota ffs

The rules of the game should be such that cats like that get nowhere.

You are a pretty handy stats man. Could you find out for me the percentage of tries that come from bombs?
Could you have that on my desk by 12 noon then take a break.
Seriously though I am keen to know

Gimme a couple of hours while I watch the highlights from every game. That stat likely exists somewhere but I've never seen it available to the public. The commentators might pull it out during a game.

They are and have lost plenty over the past 2 years. They've obviously prioritised players/positions more effectively than say Parramatta.... We'd have way more money tied up in our pack than they have I reckon and yet we're getting, at best, maybe similar output....at worst, noticeably less....

We get more output out of our pack than does Penrith, they get more quality because they ask less of them effort on effort during the game.

They "rest" their forwards in game by having full sets where every run is a back, and they do that enough to ensure their forwards aren't pushed as hard as ours, or likely anyone else's. Obviously they can do it because they have the right mix in their backs to do it, and we just don't, so that's down to recruitment and coaching.

Would anyone disagree with 1 in 3 tries are from bombs being about right?
