Round 6 - Warriors vs Broncos

[Foordy]

But it’s because he plays in the d line all the time.

more and more fullbacks are playing in the defensive line while defending the try line ... this is not exclusive to Boyd

 

[GCBRONCO]

12/13 completed sets, good to see.

Bird could be a pretty good edge backrower. He is pretty much playing that at the moment and is making heaps of meters each run.

Play Bird in the halves again the storm next week , we saw what happened last time Niko played there against them

Bird just competes and can match it up physically.

Bird seems to be giving more organisation, with possible a rub off of confidence on the rest of the team. Im liking it so far.

Just would like mcguire to improve his passing if hes going to play a floating decoy

Nope and there’s nothing wrong with the tactic but if the kicker is on the left side of the posts, that’s where the FB needs to be too. Unfortunately is was just an excellent kick. He hit the post which he would’ve been going for.

Boyd was plain unlucky with a terrible bounce. That goal post is a a bit fickle. Sure it saved one against the cowboys, but then gives one away against us! I think we have to question it's motivation. I'm sure it's answer will be quite rigid.
On a plus, I'm ecstatic with how we are going. We're a little with the defensive line speed and Roberts needs work on his draw and pass (even though we scored), but other than that youve to be happy with a team riddled with injuries response.
Just keep it going boys!

on the positive our forwards are not getting dominated

on the negative our kicking game as been real hit and miss. i think most of warriors points originated from a poor kick from us that gave them the upper hand to start the set.

I thought our kicking was pretty good. I can only remember one poor kick towards the end from Milf. The rest were deep and good, he caused one repeat set, nearly kicked a 40-20 and kicked the drop goal at the end.

 

[Cult]

Even the best fullbacks get done by a grubber at the posts. Not a lot he could have done.

 

[Wolfie]

I think we have actually hung in there pretty well in a tough away game. Nobody is really making any errors and we are getting some good field position.

 

[Cult]

I'd love a quick play the ball this year please refs. Warriors spent the first and last ten minutes laying on us

 

[fanrrior]

Enjoyable game so far. We can't count on the Broncos to capitulate like in our game against the Raiders. Said it earlier but I love that no matter where these teams are on the table it always seems like they can step up.

"A special one off"

Yeah as in, you'll never see it again

I thought NZers were overly affectionate??

 

[PerthBrissy987]

Great set , bs penalty

 

[Wolfie]

Boyd will win us the game today. Thats the first time all year he hasnt fell backwards catching a bomb

 

[Dash]

Penalised for putting a hand on him?
