PRE-GAME Round 11 - Broncos vs Tigers

[Allo]

Please Mr Bennett can u cease with the Moga experiment, stick Kahu there and leave me on the wing

Honestly I'd prefer Opacic at centre and Jordy to stay on the wing. I don't know if he just isn't suited to it or tries too hard once he's there, but centre hasn't been his friend for most of his career. You can stay on the bench and assassinate the opposing team's best player if we ever fall behind badly again. Having said that, you were good tonight.

 

[meady]

Assassinate lol.

Would be interesting to see how things would be if WB persisted with Kahu from the get go as much as he has with Moga.

Anyway hopefully Meady gets a few more games to change his mind and to be honest a few snr players in the team are starting to voice their approvals

Moga had a great game I can't believe how much everyone wants him out of the team. Last night he shut down Walker possibly the most inform centre of the competition, he had no chance in the world to get around him for a linebreak or try.
Moga was unlucky not to score and how many players could of gave Oates that ball to score like he did.

I will give him that, His defence on Walker was awesome, Absolutely shut him down.

The problem with Moga is the boneheaded decisions he makes in other areas of his game. Last night was not the first time he bombed a try in the goal line and he often throws passes to Oates that are thoroughly ineffective. I would put Opacic and give him a go.

your definition of a "Great Game" varies depending on who the player is.

we will be a far stronger team when Moga is no longer in it.

Walker was playing with a bung shoulder tbf to him. Plenty of players could have passed that ball to Oates as well.

I think Moga was pretty poor for the first 60 mins, but his last 20 was really good. He should be picking up his game now he has had a decent run injury free, he need to start improving as we have options getting fit now. Roberts will obviously take the right center position, but Opacic has been playing well and his performances have been getting stronger every week. He is massively superior to Moga in defence, and i believe his attack and ability to score a try is better is well. Moga really needs to use the physicality he has more, he is such a big powerful unit.

 

[Big Del]

Sorry Meady . Moga is playing better each week . Lots of in contact metres in our own half . Quick play the balls and showed last night he can put the winger in space .

Walker tried to run around him on the outside and got monstered . Who says he has no pace ?

 

[tommy]

The amount of times Moga should have passed the ball to Oates but ran himself is infuriating. Not only when there is space there but even if the winger is there how many times have we seen Oates just run over the top of some poor fool when it is a 1v1 situation.

 

[Fernando]

Shame Moga dropped that ball near the line, it was a strong game otherwise.

He looks really slow lol but he's got this ability to get outside the man marking him pretty regularly. He must have been lethal before all his knee issues.

 

[Kyall]

Opacic is a running centre from my memory, say if I'm wrong but he is run first pass later player as well.

Not really. He has some pretty good ball skills tbh, hasnt really shown a lot at NRL last season of that probably because of his shoulder injury. but watching him for both Redcliffe and our u20's he certainly is a lot better with the ball in his hands than we have seen from Moga so far, plus he does seem to be one of these players that seems to be able to find the try line.

Saying that, he has certainly got his chance for us in the team by doing the basics really well and being fairly error free. His defence and toughness are whats probably impressed Bennett the most, along with his attitude. When he gets another chance, i do think he will need to show a bit more ball playing than he could last season.

That all depends on who replaces him !

 

[Alec]

Moga hasn't been terrible lately, but I can't shake the feeling he'd cost us the game when it matters. He's honestly not very good.
I still don't understand how Bennett keeps picking him either, he's the complete opposite of what Bennett usually likes in a player.

So we are all just accepting that David Mead posts on this board and is happy to question Wayne's decisions and talk down another player?

Or is it just easier to pretend it's real than to argue with it?

I've always assumed that it's a relative. If it is actually David Mead, then he is a deeply disturbed person. But it is probably his brother.

 

[meady]

You guys being serious ?

 

[Accept]

You guys being serious ?

What relation are you to him? There are a few in here who think you are the actual person which is ludicrous. Are you his bro? He was very solid last night btw.
