https://twitter.com/FOXNRL/status/1783442468895117638 Watch this in slo mo and see how the 2 forwards 17/11 run opposing lines to the half, centre and winger to engage the defensive line, create an overlap where there wasn’t one, and put a winger through untouched. Not complex, but bloody hard to de...

And the fact that Huddo had to suggest to Fog last year that perhaps he should practice kicking field goals, tells me that the attack coaching leaves much to be desired. Remember Fog had never kicked a field goal in his career prior to the second Dolphins game last year. Even in that game he flat o...

I don’t disagree with that at all, some very promising signs moving forward. But that’s not what I was arguing - saying we can’t play a good style of football because we don’t have penriths spine ignores the fact that penriths spine weren’t elite when they started playing that style. I agree we are...

In 2026, Strange, Sanders and Chevy will still only be 21 years old. I’d like to think we’d be up towards the top of the table but they’ll still be very young for spine players and I think having the premiership cut-off date that soon is unreasonable. Strange could have 40-50 games under his belt b...

I agree we look to have progressed. But your argument is based on smoke and mirrors - those panthers players don’t just win the 1 on 1 battles because they are better players and the style suits them better - they win because they have played that style since they were teenagers together and it’s fl...

We seem to be able to shift the ball this year but still lack either the off the ball runners to manipulate the defensive lines decision making or a ball carrier to straighten and engage the line prior to the pass to create space. The Hudson try against the titans was a rare glimpse of players runni...

Pretty sure there are no consequences if you don’t.

Or if you do.

To me, it’s less about the cattle and more about the lack of structure that we display every single year. We have become one of the most boring, predictable and frustrating teams to watch and nothing seemingly ever gets done to address it. Even now, all our young exciting outside backs talent is ha...

Coastalraider

Eels have the power here obviously, but they would be mad not to look at who they can potentially lure there in a swap deal to strengthen their squad rather than keep a guy they aren’t playing and won’t have next year. And our desperation post Fog injury means we are far more likely to release someo...

Which was one of my main concerns with signing 3 middle of the road hookers above Trev - a complete block on development. It will take injury or suspension for him to play decent minutes. Can't play til round 10 anyway, probably not deeming it a priority until then Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapata...

My understanding and it can be completely wrong but thought you can sign but it can't be lodged with the NRL until after the 10 days unless waived by the current club. So if he has signed we are just waiting for the 10 day to expire. This article explains it: Previously the NRL had a ‘cooling off p...

Yeah I’m intriguing to see where the Horse career ends up. We saw the highs last year, his ceiling is great. But we also heard last year via his podcast interview that it seems Ricky puts a lot of onus on him to control his own path, sometimes they don’t speak, he loses focus on health and training ...

Further to the Starling point - below is a very very good read on how we stack up this year in certain metrics - from an attacking perspective we seem to rely (successfully) on making meters up the meddle and shifting to edges - both tactics would be better served by the faster and more accurate ser...

Coastalraider

Starling not only has a wayward radar at times (left to right specifically) but he also has this strange hesitation in his delivery, like he’s winding up for the pass. Watch him closely this week, the time it takes from getting hands on the ball to releasing the pass is slower off the ground than mo...

Coastalraider

I’m more than happy with what Levi is providing at present, it’s Starling that’s the glaring issue in the attack right now. The sooner Woolford comes in to the 14, the better. Agree that Levi has been solid and Starling exactly what we have come to expect - unstructured and erratic with below avera...

The cup vs first grade debate is age old. But in the last 12-24 months there have been a few people who have clearly looked a step above cup while playing that level: -Mooney -Strange late last year -Schiller this year -Savage late last year -Chevy in patches -Levi last year (as much as I dislike th...

His form last year definitely deserved a first grade gig. He was excellent, but wasn't dominating consistently near the level he has been this season. Ata was the pick of the bunch at that level. However, Mooney was deservedly given a couple of cracks in First Grade. Hard to crack a rotation with T...

We’ll happily after a couple of cup stints it seems he has finally leapfrogged Emre in Stickys eyes.

Next up, Saulo.

Coastalraider

I doubt it.

My expectation is Hokinson back starting edge, Mariota to the bench and Sasagi back to cup. No other changes unless through injury.

Hell yes!!! I just checked the times and saw that a great result mate, onwards to Comrades!

Coastalraider

Strange will go under the radar a bit because of the style of footy he’s playing - different coaching approaches. Sticky has usually been one to restrict the input of kids while they find their feet. - ie limited movements around him, no kicking etc. Benji has thrown Galvin the keys and said go nuts...

Just for **** and giggles should we get out the ramp in here, and see how long it takes Fox staff writers to report we are offering $750k?

UTA does have a mod on the usual course as the area known as ‘landslide’ had another - you guessed it, landslide! Talking to the RD last week and it should be a good plan B this year.

Saving like crazy for EU…

Good to hear you’re wife is training the house down, hope you get back to it safely.

Training going well mate, just laying the bricks. Did 6foot track a couple of weeks ago and found it quite easy compared to last time, and ‘accidentally’ ran a 15-20 min PB, so the plan is working.

We have to keep asking these questions, but stop airing them in public.

My major issue with Starling is that any squad he has played with over the years has no indication of when he will run, or what do do when he does. The tigers are starting to have systems coached into them for when Api goes for a scoot - ie xx position players go AS SOON as the run starts… Starling ...

Just to add an alternative theory here, would the naysayers change their tune if the first press release came out like this? ‘I went to the Titans because I believed that it was a project that was going to help me reach my full potential as a footballer. Over the past few years I’ve had fantastic co...

As much as I want to see Horse back in the team, if Mooney doesn’t get the gig after being named 18th man this week and literally blowing the doors off NSW cup, surely that the end of the road for his career at the raiders.
