2020 Rd 18 V Dragons: Game Day

[Boomercm]

Valemei just looks like a park footballer put into the NRL. Shocking call to select him after last week.

Need to be gentle with your comments here. Otherwise people here will call you stupid

He saved us two tries early (great tackle on norman, then good read on grubber), then he cost us two. The second one was not pretty. He's 6 games in so I'm not that concerned with his play. But I'm not sold that he has the speed and athletic ability to go with his strength. He might make a good back up.

[LastRaider]

Our backline is purely wretched.

Except Cotric.

So glad we got rid of Cotric.

What do you people want? $650 000 for a winger. Than most players on our team want more.
He is going be winning the wooden spoon next year. Canterbury are beyond garbage, their attack is nearly as bad as ours.

He should be playing centre for us like he will be next year for the bulldogs. It’s just our coaches stubbiness why he isn’t.

[dubby]

Our 1-4 have been terrible. Jordy has been good, but the rest are bad.

[The Nickman]

Croker the difference between the teams right now.. where are all you cowards now??

Your obviously choosing to not watch anything else but goal kicking

You’re

[Pete Cash]

We are being smacked in the backline. We need more than Papalii + Tapine play good

[Boomercm]

Note also what a genuine attacking fullback can do. **** from Semi but Dufty still had to see that and put it on a dime

If Semi plays man not ball he breaks Ramsay in two because he has to stop and put his hands up trying to catch the floater. Wasn't anything special from Dufty.

Don't forget his leadership has got us ahead on the scoreboard too.

Semi has made a few errors, but some of these comments about our backline are pretty off the mark.

I think our cohesion in attack is looking as good as it has in a long while. We are shooting ourselves in the foot with a few errors but there are some great signs there IMO.

[Green Taipan]

Lucky we scored a try, no attacking moves, people going solo, I am not sure what the solution to the lack of our attacking play is??

Solution is, get an offensive coach. Ricky just likes the bash up the middle!

[Motiv8dan]

We should be able to play the game in the Dragon's end for most of the 2nd half, strong wind,I only hope we don't give a heap of 7 tackle sets because of it with ill measured kicks, almost better to just keep running it on the last with the wind.

[Seiffert82]

The **** is with this campaign against CNK?

[1992]

NRL will milk any moment for all it is worth. Sick of this kid already. He just put the ball over the line.
He might need a Matt Nable promo all to himself.

Also running into a howling wind. We win this by 20 I reckon

Cost us two in one half, and not concerned? Come on... Lol

I like his speed and athleticism. But decision making is a 1/10 right now

Lolol

[Raider47]

**** sick of hearing the words Cody and Ramsey.

[raiderskater]

I don't think we've been quite as horrible in the back 5 as people are claiming either. CNK's been reasonably solid, Raps obviously quite good, Cotric came up with that big intercept play, Semi's had a couple of really good trysavers, forced an error, general good play and then also made a couple of errors and bad defensive reads, and I see Croker's back in the no-man's land of "if he doesn't pass, he's **** and needs to pass/if he does pass and it doesn't stick, it's obviously because he's ****" again. But I think he's been fairly solid. And obviously, his goal-kicking - against the wind I might add - has been a big difference. This would be a tighter game if he missed any (or if Lomax could kick).

[Begbie]

TheGH on fire today!

[The Nickman]

This whole forum is **** embarrassing at times

More like bag out the players forum

Yeah I'm sure if he didn't kick goals he wouldn't score another career point

[raiderskater]

Also though, I loved Jack's big booming kicks in the first half, but with the wind behind him in the second, I'm worried his radar will be out of whack and Sia might have to go for a swim to fetch the ball!

**** cowards

[Hong Kong Raider]

Semi hits hard and has good hit ups. He also defused some attacking kicks. It's his positioning and lack of judgment in attack and defence that's the problem.

[Mickey_Raider]

The **** is with this campaign against CNK?

I don’t get it either mate.

He isn’t a top 3 fullback but he is not a weakness by any stretch.

[Rads1984]

I personally think our cohesion and play is building nicely just before the finals.

However, we’re making too many errors and we have a few players not in form/up to standard.

I would like to see Erin Molan interview Charlie Staines and Cody Ramsey in a special 2 hour exclusive interview.

[Pete Cash]

Again as far as attack goes I have to feel like this is what stick wants just grinding up the guts with crash balls.

[Raider47]

Agreed about CNK. Campaign against him is questionable.

Change of refs

[Ultima]

****... now we have a worse ref...

[Ilanraiders]

Not Cecchin please!!!

[1992]

New ref so no square ups from us.

[Brewdle]

What’s Checchin’s ref rating? Against us?

NRL changing the ref - not enough penalties and six agains to St George

[raiderskater]

Huh, we broke the ref.

Oh ****, it's Cecchin.
