Saw Patolo in the background after our win, looking lean and good. Wonder how close he is? If Patolo and TPJ are still a bit off we need Billy T from Reggie's. Looking good and holding the middle really well. No idea why they went Tanner over him.

They need to do something different this tlt or they are going to kill max king! Also Kiraz is playing awesome but I think he is coming in too much. For example when Preston made a half break and his hand went into touch if kiraz was on his wing we would have had an overlap. That being said he probably created the opportunity from his run, but I think there is a risk of some missed points from him being Caught in field.

The beauty of these errors are that they are minor tweaks with greater results. Some things to work on.

Thats what Ciraldos game plan is the backs taking more hit ups so its taking the pressure off of the forwards.
Panfers do this too.

Kiraz is making up for the lack of go forward atm. Has been a huge factor for us

It's calf muscle/tendon injury, they are a bastard to rehabilitate, almost as bad as hamstrings. Predicting the rehab time frame is a lottery, especially when there is an underlying cause, which seems to be the case with TPJ.

Yeah, of course. Just means we need to take all these updates with a large grain of salt.

I’ll be watching with interest to see if TPJ misses exactly 12 games…
