What's a worry though is that just about every other team has had major overhalls of their personel. No one talks of their gelling and it seems thats its not a problem for them. Could be that we are trying to play people out of position and its hard pollishing turds. Sorry Jake.
Morning you Doge ee you.
Had to ride em hard and put em away wet but we did it. Fans included.
You can see GA that the rest of the team is not used to the enthusiasm and heart that JAC shows naturally. It may take a few weeks but you will see a marked improvment in this regard. Who knows by the end of the year try celebrations may resemble the panthers celebrations. Knowing our luck we may injure ourselves.
Noticed that too Twin. Is it because of lack of fitness? He said he wanted to play more minutes this year etc etc but the old legs don't do what the head wants sometime. Glad we got him on a bad day cause I can remember him and Granville absolutely carving us up several times in the passed.
That was a great move imo. I think they will struggle against bigger opps if they start with thompson and jackson in the middle.
the punch he adds after the starting boys are a little fatigued is great. much better use of him i feel
Agree, 2 the called back were terrible calls and shouldve been tries all day. the inside ball to dufty was all class
True - but I don't think any other club has had as many new faces in new positions playing their first-ever game with the club. The Titans have a new look spine - but they all either made their debuts last season or have 5-10 games minimum together. The Rorters had their first game with Keary and Walker in the halves, but what's the excuse when one is a ROTY and Keary is a CC Medalist and the team has been at the top of the ladder for most of the past decade?
Our boys looked much fitter physically and mentally plus they handled the humid conditions much better than the cowboys!
the way souths went on friday, i think we may be able to match it with them and jag another one - pending on whether we turn up and actually have a go and don't play like we did first half last night. If we can get a W against the broncos and souths and go 3/7 i'd say we're in a better position than expected. Not expecting to beat Manly, Penrith, Melbourne, Roosters but who knows. If we can continue improving and forming combinations and everyone is fit and firing, why not?
If the Storm lose another couple of players to injury we might end up playing their feeder club LOL
suits me! don't care how we do it or who we play, as long as we come away with the points
