Saab Sighting

[Disco]

Yeah real shame.

Veaga to come in I assume or does Talau get a shot on the wing?

 

[castle eagle]

now he resembles a saab more realistically....
broke down!

 

[Ben]

He looked to grab higher up on the hamstring which is bad news. The higher up the injury the more loading. Fingers crossed it’s a low grading

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Yeah real shame.

Talau to center. Garrick back to wing. sorted.

Talau to center. Garrick back to wing. sorted.

I honestly don’t think the club will stuff Garrick around after all the energy that’s gone into his transition. Further, Talau is not as dynamic as Garrick and it’d be better to have an attacking weapon in the centres that can feed a winger, as opposed to a no frills centre that stifles a Ferrari on the wing.

hopefully someone can remind garrick he has a winger outside of him he is allowed to pass to

He’ll get there, but yeah I noticed he was a bit greedy.

I think they were hesitant to throw the ball too wide due to the spatial issues of smaller field. Koula had similar issues with not being able to gas people on the outside as easily as usual.

Good point. Noticed Koula the same.

100%. It’s called passing the problem off to the person next to you. I don’t recall a single instance where I was disappointed with our centres for not passing. All it would have resulted in was a player being dragged into touch.

 

[CRPSI eagle]

Garrick in not a centre and will get mulched against the Rooters! Just leave him on the wing, he was in all sorts today.

 

[NREagle]

From Saab....

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

Why did he hesitate when the souths half was coming across to catch him.He should have just kept going i reckon saab had him covered he looked to his left for a sec & hesitated.

Full width field, and Ilias doesn't get near him.

I disagree somewhat. I just don't get why we take a very good wingman in Garrick and make the 'could work' switch to center. Talau is a very good 3/4 on his day and just needs quality around him to get better.

Garrick played well mate. First game of the season. We were the best team in Vegas. We should be proud

Probably in shock that Ilias was gaining on him!

because he had him covered if he didnt look he would have been tackled into touch.

 

[manly al]

Could be the best club news of the week if Sabb only has a minor strain .
Game went up another level yesterday .
Angles can be deceptive and Ilias does not seem the slowest of halves going around and it was just a fortunate ankle tap ..
Looks like could be a good chance of being available for the Roosters game . which obviously has to be a major bonus
Not sure whether Ray Ray to wing or Parker or Talau centres and Garrick to wing .
Probably more inclined to keep Garrick in the centres

 

[Eagle 1]

How long we thinking hes out for ? from what i saw i reckon hell be out for 6 weeks at least

If low grade, hopefully nothing longer than 6wks. Not playing till Sunday week so may only miss 4 games, fingers crossed.
