If the the fat bloke Schuster and Jake are on and have field position, then I reckon they could be more creative than us. Plus Jake has a pretty long 7 iron kicking game, so we’ll be probably starting sets pretty deep.

So it will fall on our pack to win the middle, complete high % and DJ to kick us out of trouble. All the same we really only have Gutho swinging left or right with shifts to find the tries out wide. You can’t expect DJ or Matto to do much. In fact I think that this match will feel very much like those from a decade or so a go where our game plan was “here, you have a go”.

I think we have a better team on paper and all our squad are on good form, so that with the home ground adv should get us over the line. I think. Arm wrestle.
Jake and the Fatman.

Jake is a pretty good defender. Its the arm grabber schuster that Dylan would brush. Or on Friday, Matto will run over.
Hes slow laterally. Rewatch cleary burn him. When he eventually plays regularly nrl and teams studies him, all those teams with good left edge attack will burn him

All you have to do is go side ways and when he follows side step him or swerve around him.

What will happen is that the 2nd rower or centre will then stick closer to him and all you need is a player running a straight line and you'll get thru.

Ja is a good front on defender much better suited defending in the middle but get one on one with him, a speed merchant will just burn him

OK sure an origin half burned a back-up half. Pay gap $1 million.

Umm if hes gonna be a mainstay at nrl, alot of nrl players would burn him
Who said he was going to be a mainstay of any team ? Most of his detractors when he was here claimed that he was Ron Massey quality anyway.
