Round 17 - Titans vs Broncos

[holdzy]

If we keep the foot down, we can clean up that for and against in one game!

Thing with these young fellas is they need patience. We have got carried away with young blokes coming in the past and killing it at the start, but then they fall away the more they play as people dont tolerate their mistakes, especially when the team isnt doing so well.

One thing i do think we have benefited from is the constant chopping and changing of players to accommodate Bird. Its let us get more cohesion into the team we probably lacked for quite a while this year.

The thing that has impressed me most about turpin is his defence. He put on some big hits and lead the line

Only 5 more tries boys and we flog them for the second time in a row by 50 at the GC

My 1st half thoughts.

- Turpin. It's only been less than 20 minutes since he's been on the field but I really like what I see. The best thing about him so far is his fast and crisp passes from dummy half. Reminds me of Damien Cook. That 1st pass from the ruck is absolutely vital and I'm loving his passes. They get to the player fast and his pass accuracy is spot on. I'm a fan of Macca but most of his passes from dummy half are slow and move slow in the air and by the time it hits the player, the defense is in our faces. Turpin is great.

- Kotoni Staggs. Absolutely solid game, great kid. Shame he is off. Hope he comes back, he's a young tearaway. Great energy and confidence to pass that ball to Niko for the try.

- Jonus Pearson. Surprisingly, I'm really impressed with his 1st half. Looks like he's not wearing ice skates today lol. Well done, keep it up.

- Milf's short kicks are terrible. Needs to get that better, and has to nail em for the team. Long kicking game is good. Pass selection is good. Defense is good. He's going okay.

- Our forwards are doing the job. Need to keep it up for another 40 minutes.

- We look hungry and switched on. Need to cut out the penalties and complete our sets, keep the energy levels high and stay at it. We got this.

Great post Dee !!

I think Milf's short kicks could do a lot better if our chase game was awake......

Came on in his first start and played like he'd been doing it all year.

Everyone raving about our young players is great, but lets not play down the reason they are great. They have EARNED the right to play and get picked. Bennett is a master at it and every year people on this forum acts like he doesnt blood young players, he is just more patient then us and makes them earn it.

Yeah, bwaithe is dissecting every close pass and whinging that we got away with some.
FMD I've never heard him or anyone go through other teams flat passes and point out how that were getting the rub off the green.
Also didn't hear a word from him about NSW getting every 50 50 in the SoO games.
Fucking flog

All of our young forwards go to the same barber.
