Haas, TPJ, Lodge.

 

[Mustafur]

TPJ, Gamble, Lodge

 

[Santa]

Hassle, Oates, Bullemor

 

[McHunt]

TPJ, Haas, Lodge, but great games from almost everyone, especially Flegler, Turps, Gamble, Farnworth, Oates, Bullemor. Mixed games from Isaako and Milford.

We would've won that easily with a better 5/8th. Milford wasn't terrible, probably his best game for a long time, but he just doesn't have the energy to win games for us. Isaako made too many errors and didn't compensate enough in attack.

Haas, TPJ, Farnworth

Hard to pick 3. A lot of players had their best game tonight. Unfortunately many fell away in the second half.

Credit to @Huge , Kennedy has been great since given a chance.

 

[BooKhaki]

Haas
Lodge
Flegler

Was tough picking the 3rd, but went with Flegler, possibly because it's his best game in 2 years, great footwork and some good offloads. Oates and Tommy Shelby were both really good too.

Is there something going on with the live game and post game thread. I cant see them ?

I'd say you've been blocked by b4l.

 

[Dexter]

Why?

 

[Kimlo]

Why?

I'll look into this mate and let you know

 

[Huge]

I couldn't see the live thread until late. **** nose

 

[McHunt]

Can I just say: that reverse spiral pass from TPJ. What right does he have to have hands like that? He's more of five-eighth than Milford. The one that led to Flegler almost scoring that got sent upstairs.

I've taken it to PM with Dex, but it goes back to something that was said in the Player Movements thread. Dex had b4l on ignore but since b4l became a mod he still saw his posts. So b4l put him on ignore to spare Dex.

It wasn't done out of spite or malice but I don't think b4l was aware that he was also blocking him from the official discussion threads as a result.

I'll look into this mate and let you know

Thanks

Well I can't vent anywhere else until I get unblocked.
Feldt has to be my most hated NRL player, exactly the reason why you should be allowed to punch on.
Fucked if I know why the refs let his bullshit in the ruck go unpunished.

That game was ours to lose and for mine highlighted why Milf isnt smart enough to be our 6.
He had chances to get to the posts and take 1 and put us 7 ahead but we keep running it on 4 and turning it over.

Isaako just has too many big errors in him.
He has talent but rarely finishes in front on the ledger.

 

[Mister Wright]

Hard to pick just 3, this time because so many played well. Lodge was great, as was Haas & I’ll give my 3rd vote to Coates.

 

[Nashy]

Coates, Haas, Herbie for mine.
