What a great win-thoughts...

[Matabele]

Enigmatic is a kind way of saying it.  Maybe he's distracted by drafting his apology to that Zoo Weekly model.

 

[Ryan]

As the saying goes, "when he's good, he's very, very good. When he's bad, he is horrid.

  Often within the same set of Six.  He should go and play for Melbourne.

 

[Ryan]

Yup, he's definitely an erratic player no doubt.

Better erratic than erotic nowadays 🙂

;D How great was that result.
Thought the guys did great. T-Rex played much better yesterday than against the Tigers, Lyon as always brilliant. Rodney impresses a bit more every time he plays..Orford too had a much better game.
Overall very happy with the result but I think at times were a bit lucky with Parra's mistakes.
Just a quick question - What is going on with Hall's moustache? It looks like he just stepped out of '70's porno... 😉

He looked like an overweight Freddy Mercury

Great comparison Dan hehehehehe

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

1. This is our best backline sans Snake.
2. I still worry about T-Rex's lateral movement ability.
3. Choc is developing a habit of taking out opposing halfbacks (WCC anyone?).
4. King and Rose really stepped up.
5. Rodney's fast developing into a real threat.
6. Lyon's last tackle kicking close to the line was horrible.
7. Any team would have beaten Parra today, especially without Keating, so let's not get ahead of ourselves. Titans will be the litmus test.

 

[Dan]

Rodney and Rose were great yesterday. Best forwards on the park.

 

[Matabele]

Bailey was pretty awful again I thought.

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

I think we know what Bailey is gonna give us: a couple of good runs, some good defence, 80 min of effort, but nothing too special. Question is, do we persist? It's noticable that Lyon is playing some excellent football with more room to move out wide.

 

[ManlyBacker]

Good news. Only Pritchard has been charged from the weekend so Kingy is in the clear.

 

[Dan]

So he should be, that didn't deserve a penalty or going on report that was a joke of a call

 

[Cletus]

What did Bailey do wrong? I thought he had some great touchs, he did a nice flick pass to Glen Stewart that could have set up a break but Glen thought he'd set up the touchie 🙂 .He's linking up a lot better now and helping the team, I don't know why people expect him to be a superstar.

 

[Cletus]

And I'm only half way through the replay and Watmough has been hopeless.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

I did notice Bailey picked in a team of the week last week

He is throwing some nice ball to set up his outsides, I see Bailey/Stewart/Lyon coming together a bit better each weekend

 

[Dan]

I thought Watmough was pretty good yesterday. A few brain explosions but some other good things

 

[Cletus]

Maybe Watmough was a bit dazed from the collision with Keating, but he seemed to be bumbling with the ball like an AFL player in the first half. Good runs but one of his worst ball control wise, and what was that tap back from the kick off???.

Orford's short kicking was a lot better and he didn't have a bad game really.

Anyway we're going a lot better than we were in the first few rounds. I still think the Gold Coast game will be a tough one for us.

 

[DSM5]

Watching the replay, Orford wasn't particularly bad.  Actually, maybe he's getting back to form.  All he has to remember is that Brett's not out there and feed the ball rather than little chip kicks.  Leave the creative things to Lyon, he's better at it.  Bailey wasn't bad.  his linking was good.  And T-Rex went OK.  He's huge and will be awesome when he figures everything out..Choc really needs to come off the bench.  Let the game settle and come on when the opposition is tiring.  Building? yes, there? no.
