Talk about deja vu, this game has “ambush” written all over it.
Adding the JFH news today on top of the Cleary injury not being as “vanilla” as we had hoped, sets this up as an interesting challenge.
Tigers whilst no premiership threat have improved with all of whatever good happens from them begins and ends with Api.
We on the other hand have been a shadow of the premiership juggernaut we were.
On paper we should win this game but we thought the same last year.
That being said, a lot will turn on how we attack if our defence holds.
Our attack has been the issue and in our last game, deserted us on all levels.
Much to watch this week, we will see how JFH responds to his move, how Luai drives our boys around and how Schneider creates opportunities and importantly closes them out.
The playing group need to lift.
A game we should win against an opponent that will not play finals again this season, but as we have seen for past few seasons, we are the hunted & rivals will try to raise their efforts in order to try & beat us.
Last game not much went right & an improved performance is expected. Anyone can win on a given day, but I suggest we will be too good for the tiges.
wouldn’t have anything to do with his driving would it?
Its hard to put brains into statues but i was hoping to see Alamoti, not this early but nonetheless pleased to see how he goes and fits into our structure.
he is a kid playing for plenty, so i guess we will all see his character and to be honest against a side who won’t be easy beats but we should dominate.
Luai has a bit to prove to his new masters as well, show them how much of a bargain buy he was.
Hope the May matter is resolved quickly and i wish Alamoti has a standout game. That alone may get someones attention.
Well for quite some time we looked like we were stuck in mud and they were running on top of the ground.
We were lucky to have Schneider stay on the field and not be in the bin for 10 and the same with their Sezer who should have been in the bin and their first try wouldn’t have been scored.
But these refs seem to be wearing OPSM glasses with us and wearing Goggles with the other mob.
Thankfully Henry and Smith came on and settled our forwards but to my etyes JFH looked flat.
Edwards has been head and shoulders the best player on the park but we will need to lift our intensity to secure the win.
i wasnt expecting spectacular and probably what we got where we went back to basics and the 6 suggest we did but we need to remind ourselves we played a very average team.
if we had of played Broncos or indeed Cowboys we wouldn’t be so chuffed.
Schneider is simply terrible at 7, and isn’t giving us any fluidity in attack or importantly in defence .
We have to acknowledge the importance of Cleary to our side.
That being said, we have a few who are not where they need to be but it was a win and we will take it.
Next week will be a better marker of where we are at for this year.
JFH is clearly still carrying that shoulder injury. He turns into contact almost seeming to avoid hitting it. I’m hopeful that he can sort that out, but I fear he may be playing with that injury for the rest of the year.
Alamoti had a sound debut. Some classy Critta-like moments with that intercept, and a superb try off a Sorensen offload.
Was surprised to see Benji have a crack at the refs post game. Obviously trying to use the Trent Robinson playbook. That mob is delusional.
It was a great experience being at the game - a full house at a small ground.
All in all the scoreboard somewhat flattered us, but was great to see Fish power through for that final try.
Edwards and Yeo were clearly our best, I thought our bench forwards all played well, and our new guy shows promise in the centres.
Another 2 points our way. Not flash by any means, but as they say premierships are not won in April.
It used to be Melbourne who was our bogey team, it now seems like it’s the Tigers.
