Reynolds was also present in our most Rabbitohs clash, and we were a real chance of winning that game

For those who have repressed the memory, it was the one where we led at half time, but then returned to the field with only 12 men...

I start dinner at kickoff, and take the first half to cook, then make every one eat in the 15 mins at half time, then take the 2nd half to wash up and clean the kitchen.

All the while I have the laptop on the bench with the volume right up..

But the wife and kids don't have to cook or clean, so everyone is happy
My family eat dinner two hours before kickoff then they go to bed and know not to bother me

Herbie and Capewell could be a threat on the left edge. Niu is also the type of player that we struggle to contain. Forwards overall seem to match up well?

On paper I give us a good chance. Reynolds, Haas and Staggs I'm worried about. Haas was amazing last week.

Seumanufagai Has to be somewhere.. the stuff he does gets unnoticed… a big body like his and strong and fit is what we need against the broncos.
He was really good on the weekend, as were all our forwards.

Interesting stat:

Avg play the ball speed.

Cowboys 4.02s / Bulldogs 3.43s

We have been loosing the ruck for what seems like 5 years.

Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.

Drop Waddell, him on the bench is dumb, just start him or drop him and no in between.
I agree. Start Waddell. And bring Pangai off the bench. Gives great punch to tired defence

The benefit of kiwi time bro… I can’t get my kids to bed at 6:15pm especially that daylight savings hasn’t ended yet… I just sit there with the shits all game until full time :tearsofjoy:

How did he go against the Cowboys? I didn’t see the game.
One of his better games but bad things just happen around him imo. Every tackle he makes I'm scared he'll get penalised and he has an error in him. He doesn't really do much with the ball, he isn't really a threat. If it wasn't for the offside at the end with Hammer he took out JAC who was there to make the cover tackle.

Although we lost the game that has to be one of the highlights of last year. Ahh the Prince. In hindsight it’s obvious he was trying to steal the ball for a quick buck and Cody had the same idea.

Jake needs to improve just a little, take the line on again and follow the forwards for an offload to get the ball to our attacking edges.

I'm sure he has had a few at the club in his ear to calm his farm after the trial match and harness that aggression in a more productive way on the field. Run hard, tackle hard and don't get caught up in bullshit.
Has that worked before i.e Thompson!!!

Im pretty sure hetherington had the fastest average with 2.4 seconds. There were 3 under 3 seconds i think too.

Not to be a Debbie downer / a Marley, but we had the faster average play-the-ball speed compared to our opponents in all but five of our games last season. The only teams that outpaced us were the Titans (x2), Tigers (x2) and Knights (x1).

This is what the experts call winning the wrestle.
