I'm loathe to go too hard on a young spine player trying to find his feet in firsts, but for a guy who's not particularly quick, agile, or large, Chevy Stewart will need to start bringing skill to the fore quickly. Being brave doesn't make you an NRL fullback. He's 18 and there is no structure for ...

He's been very disappointing from the games ive seen
We need MUCH better from him

Botman

Crash balls on 4th and 5th and then Bombahan on the last play... HIDEOUS

Botman

That's shocking stuff from Huddo and Kris

Botman

Strange has been terribly unlucky this year
Feels like he gets over the line every week and just misses a grounding

Botman

I dont know what Smithies has looked like in the last 3 weeks, havent caught up on those games yet But he was on my radar before i left and remains so... he's a wonderful defender, and he works his **** off, no one could disput that but his attack i think actually hurts us His distribution game hasn...

Levi was not given a long leash there before the hook came out
Gives me hope that Stuart is starting to see the light on this.

Botman

That's brutally bad red zone offence, Strange is our most dangerous half and i dont think he touched the football

It's a fair point
Levi is doing his best, but as has always been the case, his best is not good enough for this level of football.

Botman

Danny levi has been a double agent so far today. Absolutely hopeless

Botman

No one does less with a QPTB and no markers than Danny Levi

Botman

Wow thats a terrbile effort by Tapine

Botman

Their forwards out playing ours again here.
We should not be losing a forward battle to the sharks

Botman

Given Fog is out for a long time, i thought it was going to be a good chance to get Strange in at RH.
He's been handling LH quite well so to some extent i can understand it but i thought in the trial we saw Weekes LH, Strange RH was capable

Botman

Don't think I've seen an athlete in the game to date quite like Walsh His second try where he came back on to the ball straight.. the way he was able to stop on a dime, flip his hips and get straight back to explosive speed was not something you see from RL athletes He’s breathtaking to watch play....

I jumped over to the One Eyed Eel Forum to see their reaction regarding Sanders debut. As a result I want to thank the GH Community and the Admin team for running such a great forum. Don’t realise how good the GH is until you see the dumpster fire that is other forums. Sent from my iPhone using Tap...

Botman

I cant help but think how much Young, Kris and Savage would benefit from having Sanders straight the attack up the way he does and conversely i think Strange, with how his game is, with a his running game and passing compliments the power running on the otherside with Timoko and eventually Asomua......

Botman

Decided to catch up on Sanders debut first... and yeah man, it was impressive He had a couple of misses defensively but they ran A LOT of traffic at him, not sure if it was because i was entirely focused on him but it seemed like they were gunning to test him out and for the most part he passed Lov...

Sebby Kris is a natural footballer, he could play anywhere... unfortunately he sucks at anywhere but Centre.

Botman

Well... a few random thoughts on the draft. I admittedly didnt go very deep into this years class, due to travel So will only have strong opinions on the top 50-60 players Yay: - the bears taking Williams which was a no brainer but then to not trade back and actually take Odunze. Love that for them....

I’d rather our players not be brain dead the night before a big game

Botman

Lewis Dodd to Souths?? Excited for that! No idea if he’s gonna be good enough at nrl level but I love seeing those top tier English players come over and test themselves The hit rate on these guys is substantially higher than it once was. Feels like most guys who come over now at least show they’re...

Botman

I have no **** idea who this kid from Houston Christian we just drafted but DJ said he’s a favourite of Vic Fangio so sure why not

Botman

Lot of thoughts on the first round But some quick thoughts from Sydney airport waiting for our flight home to gods country The eagles getting their pick of cbs at 22 was really unexpected I was expecting a small trade up for Arnold expecting Mitchell going in the top 12 or stick and pick for DeJean ...

Botman

Strange won’t need much adjustment playing on the right
It’s his best and most natural position

Botman

Man I’m gutted to be missing this debut Going to have to try and catch up on this game too Pumped he’s having a good debut. Young man can play More than anything he looks very comfortable. Olukuato has run at him a lot and he’s held up fine. He hasn’t dominated but his touches have been great and h...

I know BA is talking a big game about Sanders giving him his word about not asking for an early release 1. I say **** that. I hope he pushes for one anyways. The eels season is cooked. 2. Definitely **** that once BA is **** canned. What's the benefit of him coming this season? I don't get it. 1. I...

Botman

I might be wrong but as I recall, Ben ‘The Boss’ Cross got about 6 weeks in his final game for the raiders for dropping the most obvious knees into Tezza’s ribs after slagging off Canberra
Nothing but love for my king

The nfl is implementing a radical kick off change this year to deal with the high impacts of kick returns Feels like the nrl won’t be far behind them Kick off from half way, 12 defenders (minus kicker) line up on the 30. Ball has to go beyond the 20, and defenders can’t move until the ball is fielde...

But surely you can see clubs like the Roosters or Broncos (who can basically sign whoever they want) gives Robbo and Walters an advantage over Ricky when recruitment is never an issue for them? Roosters have no dramas signing Keary, Tedesco, Crichton, Smith, Sualii, Leniu, Young, etc. We could neve...

Welcome to sports. There isn’t a coach in the world, not even in sports like soccer, who gets every player he wants. Even the bloke coaching Real Madrid has to accept potential recruits electing to going to other clubs. Is the premise that unless he gets all his top targets he’s not responsible or a...

I’d like to get a full excel spreadsheet of nrl players and how many “sick days” they’ve used

Preferably broken down into those with a certificate and those without.
We’ll get to the bottom of this! Cat and I are on the case

Goodness me
