Yeah I cant remember a a game, where I noticed mcguire making the extra effort in everything he did. Really took on the big boppers of the titans in some tackles. Kenny looked very meek in attack. I really like the guy but except for his very last run he wasnt looking for the contact in his...
I almost feel ashamed to have contributed to this thread after all the wallace bashing thats gone on since. But its been entertaining none the least! :) Im going to throw another thought out there and say wallace probably doesnt have the combinations with the amount of players in the team he...
So Wallace has had a shocker the last three weeks, he's kicking is fine, but his running game is gone. Why? Is what i think everyone wants to know. So heres my why.
He was picked for the blues in two origins for a reason, this guy has talent, dont turn on him.
I have been telling everyone i...
Wallace had the worst game he has ever had, I have always been one of Wallace's biggest supporters, but he looks totally lost out there at the moment. He's moving so slow on everything. I always liked him originally because he looks like one of those players who could relax at the line like...
Hunt as a second hooker option please henjak! I think it will push McCullough for more from his game too. McCulloughs defence has to be respected though.
Lui as all have said, was a breath of fresh air.
Glenn was no surprise, he has impressed since his debut, needs an 80 minute run.
Best...
Does everyone forget k.hunt wasnt that masterful at fullback either when he started out. Look what he turned into! Everyone said Darius was crap too, gee I'd hate to be eating that humble pie right now!
The recognisable thing these guys have in common is they have a smart head on their...
Give micheals a break people, sure, its a personal opinion but Im sick of hearing the clones come out and say something because they think there part of the "in" group on here if they knock micheals. Unless you have seen him personally do anything worth criticising lately, then give it up.
broncosil, totally agree, i said that exact same thing about being a brickies labourer, last night watching the game, the fact they get paid to play a sport for a living is so far lost on our roster at the moment its horrendous. Dont get me wrong i believe you should get paid well for being the...
Hopefully this game is the first stepping stone to the re-establishment of our defense. Id rather we win with a field goal in the 79th minute to win 1-nil then win by a motza and let a bunch of points in.
I think hes got a good footy brain, and i think the more time he gets, the better. But id like to see him run from dummy half alot more.
Because hes not running and just passing alot i think thats why some people have the perception hes slugish (or slow). He's getting a reputation for his...
A First year at anything is tough, ever changed jobs? takin up a new sport? joined a new team?
Give the guy some support, if it doesnt work out down the track well we can say we gave him his time and plan for the future until then. But for the time being its not going to do us any good...
Thank-god. Thats over. I could just see our fullback thinking "god help me if i drop this".... thats whats a complete lack of confidence can produce. The power of the mind ay ;).
I acknowledged the mistakes. He is playing with no confidence. Have you ever played a football game where you started out by making a few bad mistakes in a row? Its near impossible to recover from. He still has had some nice touches, what about the measured kick for the restart he got from 40...
....at least hunt looks like the real deal. Despite the rookie mistakes. Its looks like a dewy night not good conditions to debut as a halfback. Between Mccollough and him they show a lot of genuine promise.
Does anybody review video at the broncos?? How many weeks in a row do we need to see our wingers go up for speckies only to have no chance of catching it. ie winterstein. Absolutely hopeless. Highballs 101: Give yourself a chance of catching it and keep your feet on the ground!
Boyd will be solid enough. I would have preferred hunt at fullback (slater to the wing) as this being lockyers first run the team will be starting again as far as team combinations go. I would love to go back in time a year and tell half this forum that boyd would be picked for origin in 12...
Bugger, thats the souths halves combination I thought they should have been running for weeks. The one week they put it together had to be against us didnt it!!
Plus they have a few stars back. This will be alot tougher than a few here have predicted. Ben Rogers is a good and dangerous half if...
Re: Our New Coach
Was disappointed to miss out on Bellamy last night. But this is definetly the next best option, we did not want to throw someone in under the pressure of succeeding Bennett. This way, we have a system that works for us, we now have a coach that respects and trusts those...
