Round 1 Discussion

[holdzy]

Hard to say to be honest, half the time I was just cursing at us dropping the ball. It was a bit of a weird one because we have a relatively 'soft' back 5, especially Don, and they did a lot of hit ups which didn't make much ground. I gotta pray Coates isn't fit because him against Thompson on those kicks would be danger-town. Mo was massive and thought Peachey was surprisingly good through the middle. Probably more I missed.

Overall, 'the reality check we needed for next week'!

I actually think the Warriors showed how to shut down the Titans. Contain Tino and Mo, pressure Ash and then it's all up to the edges, who are error prone when given the rough stuff.

Fifi will be up for this one no doubt, hopefully TPJ and Riki sort him out.

Post game on field it’s whoever the broadcasters decide they want

ye wasn't sure because I remember a equally cringe interview with james roberts in his first game with us and after that he never seemed to got interviewed again its like Bennett put a instant stop to it

 

[BroncsFan]

the NRL media between now & September 2023 whenever David Fifita does fewer than 1.25 million great things in a game to get the Titans a win...

And people reading said words

There's something nice about seeing Foran in the Manly number 6.

yea was just thinking this. it never felt right that he left manly

 

[holdzy]

Wonder where Teddy will finish up - top five fullback of all time or modern era?

 

[holdzy]

I'm going Manly in this one. Don't like either team but dislike the Roosters more.

he is a certainty to be remembered as a top 5 fullback of the modern era.

a top 5 fullback of all time is a harder question, but he will definitely be in the discussions

Random wet dream stuff here but imagine if him and Lolo ever played in the same team!

Modern era:

Locky
Slater
Tedesco
Mini
Hunt? Peachey? Snake?

Looking through a few comments elsewhere about Tits/Warriors and more than a few people think Fifi played well. Was I watching a different game?

Inglis and RTS would make the conversation

Yep for sure. Knew I was forgetting some.

You must have been ....

you see, the Courier Mail (Meyn) also believe that he failed in his Titans debut, calling his performance, both a flop and a fizzer

Now, I'm a traditionalist and traditionally that publication is wrong ... therefore, i can only conclude that he was brilliant in his Titans debut

 

[ZTop]

Well this turned unwatchable quickly

Can't argue that logic unfortunately.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Manly will finish R1 at the bottom. They have been diabolical.

 

[Renegade]

game was good for about 15mins.

Sort of knew it was coming. Roosters likely to be in the GF this year.
