The Greenhouse

I'm in the camp of pushing all our chips in on Strange. The best thing is he is the perfect 6 to pair with Fogarty short term and hopefully Sanders long term. And they are the perfect 7's to pair with him. At this point I reckon the only due diligence needed is on the intangibles. If Strange wants ...

Rickmando

Well, if the club sticks with Schiller let's hope we can continue to build 13 point leads in games that matter. Not a single player went over to console him after his pathetic attempt on Sivo for their second try. He knew it was a terrible effort. He's lucky Sivo didn't score three on him last nigh...

Rickmando

You only have to look at halves we have had over the past 20 years - Ethan Strange 5 games into his career has the potential to be better than all of them. He doesn’t seem to have any glaring weak points to his game.

Let’s go all-in on him. If we don’t, someone else will…

Rickmando

Not having a pop at individuals, but the fact that there are some pining for Hoppa over someone like Schiller on a wing - it makes you wonder philosophically what has happened to the game of rugby league. For 100+ years, wingers were your offensive weapons. The guys who could finish and score points...

I wonder if Jack was watching. Hello Jack. How good was that tonight ? Enjoy being last and 300k poorer for it I think he ended up going for $700K, turning down our $1.2mill. So even poorer still! Ooft. Well if he stayed then maybe we’d be last… him leaving did cause the rebuild penny drop… But it’...

Raiders with the highest points differential Sent from my SM-S911B using Tapatalk And I have NFI when that last happened, we are a much better side without relying on Jack as our go to man. You bloody beauty, what a game I personally feel like the Wighton “addition by subtraction” was fairly inevit...

But fast wingers don’t make metres apparently!

Rickmando

Persevere with Schiller. There’s upside there that Hopoate could only dream about having

Good energy too from a forward late in the game

Yes good point. Channel the effort into the footy rather than the other stuff, and get rewarded. Very impressed

Sure. Let’s concede 3 tries through our left centre to make up for 2 missed conversions

Rickmando

But yes tell us again how an extra 30-50 hit up metres is more valuable than turning half chances into 4 points…

Rickmando

Hoppa doesn’t score that.

He’s mowed down 10m out

Rickmando

Hudson gets his bacon saved there, very soft carry with not much urgency.

Rickmando

Will this be the week we finally come out and play footy after the break, rather than trying to sit on the lead and grind our way to a 13-12 win?

Eels are there for the taking. How about we don’t go into our shells for once

“Seniority” was the vague reason given by Rick during the week

NoMan wrote: ↑April 7, 2024, 6:54 pm I got nothing to back it up but it feels like Fog misses kicks to go 8 or 14 up a lot.

His goalkicking technique is fairly ordinary compared to the top line kickers

Rickmando

Awesome work Savage!

That’s what a winger does. Not whatever Hopoate and Cotric are

Roger Kenworthy wrote: ↑April 7, 2024, 6:35 pm Lol that's a Schiller classic. Every game he does something that looks like it's his first game of footy.

Yep but by the letter of the law, I’m not sure what rule in the rule book he broke to give away a penalty? He didn’t touch anyone!

The guy is playing like a reserve grade footballer

Rickmando

Hudson Young waiting until he’s getting lapped by his support players before giving it. Did his best to bomb that.

Great lead up play by Strange though!

Rickmando

Wiremu Greig is hopeless

After last week, our approach was never going to be anything but full-on grindball tonight

Rickmando

We can’t seriously be rolling Kris out at FB again

Rickmando

Nothingburger of a kick from Fog - gets a result

Rickmando

Right so after Savage instinctively chimes in at FB and looks good, Rick immediately sends Kris back there instead. What a numpty

Rickmando

Savage chiming in nicely, shame about the pass.

Broken record - but FB is Savage’s best position.

Rickmando

Matt Elliott over Bellamy will never not be our biggest missed opportunity. Just look at the carousel of comedy coaches we have had in that time, while Melbourne have had both elite success and continuity… The irony is it’s the one time the club has strayed from the family farm hiring structure and...

Great news. Love watching Timoko wind up for a run.

Get him more ball!!

Rickmando

Actions, words… etc etc

The best way to keep him at the club is reward his fantastic form by playing him in first grade, you muppets

2016 was the only exciting style of we’ve rolled out in the past decade! We were an attacking powerhouse that year, randomly

Then lose to the Titans the next week when the team rocks up thinking they have already won the comp to even it all out.

We’ve seen this happen too many times over the past 10 years for it to be simply bad luck!

So basically, if we “bleed green”
