Team list v Roosters round 15

[Gary Gutful]

I’ve heard BA has come up with a new cliche. The boys need to give themselves a fair suck of the saveloy.

 

[Gazzamatta]

Ok. Just listened to BAs Captains Run Presser.
He looks pis*ed. Said Nrown back to the 2s. Then said a couple of changes depending on training etc. Id suggest Nrown (Rodwell) and one other but it could be 2 more.
So whos being punted?
My guess would be Mahoney (Rein). Lots of options after last week.
Will we see a return of The Jake? (Drowns ankle)
Will Emu get a run? (Kaufusi)
Sivo (Oppy)
Maka (Ogden)

Very interesting times.

No to Rien / Emu & Ogden as they were not named in the extended bench Tuesday.

Sivo wasn't bad at all. Some powerfull runs and made over 100mtrs. I don't recall anything negative. What did people expect first game back in 9mths?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

More neck rubs.

 

[yy_cheng]

Yeah i didn't think Sivo was bad.

Too many mistakes.
If you run as a decoy, don't obstruct the defense
Too many plodders.

Someone said it, it's like someone took the aggression out of the players.

I think ba's don't give away penalties might have caused this

The only ones not currently in the 17, but on the Reserves list are:
Tom Opacic
Jake Arthur
Bryce Cartwright
Ky Rodwell
Sean Russell

These are the only ones who will get a game.

Jakey boy come on down.

He actually thought about it once. The hand started to creep up but he thought better of it. Id much prefer the Oppy/Waqa center/wing combo.

He’s hired Kevin Rudd as a consultant.

 

[Black Panther]

JWH being out helps. He is always a thorn whenever we come up against the rorters. He outplayed our 2 big boppers in magic round.

Hopefully there is a leak from NSW that RCG and Jnr could lose there spots get them breathing fire not content.

We only played yesterday so unless there were injuries team wasn't going to change until kick off.

That probably wouldn’t be a leak, both those guys should know they need big games to be selected for Origin 2. I get the feeling Paulo in particular isn’t suited to Origin for some reason.

 

[Black Panther]

It’s no coincidence that both Parra starting Props played Origin and we lost the battle, then Parra got belted on the back of your forwards being owned. The Front Rowers are the foundation of the teams go forward.
This isn’t a sledge on Parra at all, just the facts..

I feel like the more people have talked up Junior's passing ability and this "halfback in a props body" bullshit, he has stopped being a "run first, hulking metre eater with an offload" threat to a guy caught in 2 minds and has become easier to contain... Needs to just go back to what he was doing 3-4 years ago when I thought he was one of the top 2 or 3 front rowers in the game...

I agree mate, he’s a beast when on his game.. Teh guys skills are unbelievable with the ball, but in Origin he just needs to wind up and create havoc..

Up until this season, though, RCG, and Junior, were playing very well.

Penrith’s fullback and wingers are the foundation for their go forward.

Because he paces himself, which is how he plays long minutes. What it means is that his effort per minute is very low, which isn’t what you want in Origin, or in the NRL really. He suits a slower game where the defence is always set.

 

[Black Panther]

Yeah mate. Leota and JFH are crap.. Penrith are much different to most teams though.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Penrith’s fullback and wingers are the foundation for their go forward.

However the middle is definitely where the defence starts. If you lose the ruck in defence your edges will face constant overlaps. Rugbaleeg 101

 

[Black Panther]

Penrith are the benchmark of the Comp for a reason. It starts up front..
