Yeah the D let in some soft ones. That second try was scored when Hoppa was injured so our D wasnt that bad. From reading the tweets i think they scored their first try after three sets on our line. Second half who cares it was scrubs vs scrubs.

Well hopefully Graham doesn't come back and pull a Paul Gallen. He was great last night, ran with purpose and found little half gaps between defenders, also used a short ball when possible without going overboard looking to pass almost every run. This is the Graham i wanna see this year.

Yep i just hope des doesn't reward sherex and perret for mediocrity as we seem to have some good young talent that should be picket ahead of them

I think the last panthers pass may have been forward as well.

I was at the game and I thought abbey was good in the 2nd half. Hoppa was copping alot of shit from both fans when he didnt bother to try stop that last try in the first half. I know its only a trial but ffs that pissed alot of us off lol also who was number 6 in the first half ? Was it chisolm ?

He was being assisted off by the trainer at the time. If he had tried to tackle the bloke and made the injury worse we would all be blowing up today. Trials aren't about the scoreboard.

Pretty sure he was standing with a trainer, not worth it for a trial win to play on injured

Can't see how you could be pissed that an injured player, didn't injure himself more, to stop a try being scored in a nothing game.

Trex was running good lines but in defense both in the trial last night and the nines he was woeful
Lazy and flat footed
Needs to go on the bench until he is motivated
To be honest lane is often like that too in defense we are so lucky to have JJ

Hoppa played really well and so did mbye they were stand outs
Abbey was average other than catching a good bomb that bounced to score

IMO he's worse than Trex at defending.

So now you all dont care about winning. Winning is an attitude that should be apart of our team who gives a **** if its a trial or not. When you have that jersey on you should be giving 100%
But now we know if youre with a trainer you dont have to try tackle someone. The bar has been set ......

Lane is a definite arm grabber.
His defense needs to improve. I guess it's overlooked because he goes good with the ball in hand ?
I think its a little of that and a little bit of wanting anyone but Trex. I like Lane but I think his D is worse and he doesnt get enough yards for my liking.
