We need a five eigth - we need a forward that can go forwards!!!!!!!!

Harrison can stay in the second-row. He was decent, especially in attack.

Where the f**k was Viane? Sitting in the stand when he should be on the f**king field.

f**k me fire up Sheens!

 

[Kid]

well i can fill your 5/8 for you, and that is Prince, your 1/2 should be Kerr despite the shocker. As for the forwards, while i don't rate O'Neill, and Harrison did 1 hit at the end, i find it difficult to believe you chose the 2 second rowers to be gone, but left Sattler alone, i didn't want him to retire at the end of this year, but i'm now convinced, it's time.

 

[SouthernTiger]

I thought Harrison, O'Neill and Heinington were our best players. How many times did Sattler get caught with the ball

cheers

Your not far wrong,however i`m Mark O`Neill`s biggest critic.But I have to give credit where credit is due,he worked himself to a standstill tonight and along with Sattler were far and away our best players!In saying this,I still maintain that between them Sattler and O`Neill use the ball too much to be both in the forward pack,so I reckon that Sattler should move to 5/8 with O`Neill at lock!

40 SOFT tackles. That is where the problem is in this forward pack, it's time we got QUALITY and not quantity. Tonights loss would be easier to accept if we left them bruised and battered.

 

[SouthernTiger]

Vicious is exactly right. Get rid of O'neill and Sattler from our backline and they might get some ball. Sattler is a massive handbrake to our attack. Also thought Mears was poor defensively. But neither did Senter have a good game

cheers

Vicious, i would have agreed before, but Sattler is missing far to many tackles to be put 1 on 1 with some of the best 5/8s in the game. He has to be in the forwards or not there at all. Father time gets everyone in the end, some earlier than others.

 

[SouthernTiger]

What game were you watching tonight Kid. Some of O'neill tackles were bonecrunching

cheers

s. tiger

 

[SouthernTiger]

Oh sorry i misread Vicious post. Totally disagree with the call of Sattler at 5/8th. I would be inclined to give Keiran another go with Prince but of course I am biased. Saving that I would go for Fulton

cheers

[ozcrusader]

I would go for a Prince - Kerr combination next week. It's all we have.

I have no problems with ONeill except all he does is tackle. We need a line breaking second rower

Your Kidding. Mark O'Neill & Darren Senter defended like hell when both were on the field. Todd Payten was doing a great job in the first half, before he got injured and didnt return to late. Harrison was very strong running. And you think Ben Galea should be dropped? Playing injured he tried hard. Before he was injured he was our best.

To be honest I dont think anyone deserves to be dropped from tonight. They all played well and put effort in. The only two her dissapointed were Kerr, who to be honest I believe (besides the 13-3 Penalty count) cost us the game and Dene Halatau.

 

[Vicious]

Despite another bad loss,I thaught Bryce Gibbs aggression in defence was a huge step forward for both himself and the future of the Tigers.Now he just needs to start making good hard metres up the middle.Bronson showed glimpses of the power he posesses,but as he doesn`t get overly keen in defence I still believe the centres is the best spot for him.I feel a bit sorry for Dene Halatau as on face value he missed a lot of tackles,some of them very costly,however he still tried his heart out as always and is one player I can forgive for 1 shocker.Chris Heighington done a couple of good things,but also missed quite a few tackles.Not sure if he`s a good 1st grader at this stage or not.John Wilson!Done very little except miss tackles once again.Kieran Kerr also had a shocker on face value,but for a little fella he defends fairly well and I wouldn`t give up on him just yet!

 

[SouthernTiger]

I wont disagree with that comment on O'Neill. However, some of our defense is so poor around the rucks we really need O'Neill. Mears is one of the worst offenders in my book

cheers

I agree with a lot of that Vicious, but Bronson just isn't ready yet. As for Halatau, he definately had a poor 1, but geez he's been 1 of our best so your right in overlooking tonights game. Kerr has had 2 blinders and a shocker, again, deserves another chance with an established partner i.e Prince. Never, ever, want to see J. Wilson in our halves again, or preferably 1st grade, but definately our halves, he is a never was, has been, never will be, what ever you want to call him, if anyone is going to be released, i hope it's him.

Good Team Magpie Nick....

One change Id make is Kerr out, Galea to five eigth and Harrison to second row.
