So long as the Expansion conference got a subsidy from NRL HQ to help cover the costs of flights and accommodation the Sydney conference wouldn't have to bear, I can't see a real issue with this.

Katoni staggs? Pretty sure he grew up in Wellington, which is not far from where jack is from. If we landed Kotoni, I'd get Ricky's face tattooed across my hindquarters and re-name all of my kids a variant of "Ricky". I'd love him down here, the new high-performance joint would fix his kn...

Beautiful. Backing up works.

I am going to copy and paste a post I made at LU but add to it What we should be asking is why are we getting belted in yardage every week when we apparently have a good forward pack. We have won the battle for metres once this year (against the tigers) If you look at it on an individual level guys...

Does Aekins have a passing game? Could he be put on a wing and play wing in defence (when CNK comes back) and fullback in attack? He seems undersized for the wing no? I don't get this sudden surge to place Aekins on the wing. He had a serviceable game at FB but he's smaller than our current wingers...

6 foot and 93 kgs according to his Raiders bio. Not Fergo sized, but bigger than Foxxy.

Im not going to hold it against Whitehead that he's not quite impacting games when our attack is so clunky and he's spent large potions of the season playing centre. Our biggest problem with Whitehead is he's 32 this year and those are big damn shoes that we need to start thinking about filling lon...

Does Aekins have a passing game? Could he be put on a wing and play wing in defence (when CNK comes back) and fullback in attack? I think this is feasable. If he plays consistently to lastnights standard he will have to be in our starting team somewhere. As said during the week, i think the best th...

I've never seen a team that passes so poorly out of dummy half that the catcher needs to stop and prop to catch it

He'll be on at the 72 minute mark when it's 27-10

Why bomb where the fullback is?

So close. Nice work by the halves there

Are we incapable of doing two things at once? Like if our defence is fine our attack has to be **** and vice versa? A slightly younger version of me was wondering the same thing earlier on today. Why did we go from a team that can put 60, but let 60 in, to a team that puts 24 on in a good day but r...

Blaming the ref, please. Couldn't put the ball carrier down for the life of us. Deserved to lose.

One play too early, Jackieboi

Experience from Jordy - very smart

We can go 85 metres in a set, but jeez that last 15 needs work

Leebola

Unfortunate, but Kris looks strong

Leebola

Also, need consistency on repeat try-line offences. Three in a row and someone should go to the bin...for 20 mins.

Leebola

They should stop messing with the rules. If they must change things, focus on tossing out unnecessary rule changes. Like the 20/40. Eliminate multiple choice for where scrums are set. If the coaches like the middle of field... make it that! Or reduce complexity. Like with the obstruction rule. Ther...

Seems unfair to give a rating off such a small sample size. Probably needs another off season or two to put on proper muscle. Solid pedigree, def one to watch.

Leebola

I'be banged on about it enough to bore people I'm sure. But I'm worried we'll be all "honest toiler" and no strikepower next season. This is what concerns me. HSS and Timoko are still very small. Simonsen has been with us a while now but still doesn't have the brute strength/leg-drive of ...
