Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2665265, member: 1899"] I don't have time to put a video together but let's review Maranta's NRL career for a moment. So far, Lachlan has played 46 games and scored 16 tries. Breaking it down to a year-by-year context that equates to... 2012 - 7 games - 2 tries 2013 - 18 games - 5 tries 2014 - 17 games - 5 tries 2015 - 4 games - 4 tries So there's 16 moments to choose from the following matches... Round 14 2012 Round 21 2012 Round 1 2013 Round 6 2013 Round 10 2013 Round 11 2013 Round 16 2013 Round 1 2014 Round 3 2014 Round 8 2014 Round 12 2014 Round 24 2014 Round 2 2015 Round 3 2015 Round 4 2015 I think we all remember the tries from this year? Johnny on the spot, and basically the recipient of three lovely passes from JK. Sweet? Sweet. Now for the individual moments R14 2012 - Broncos spread the ball right on the Roosters 20, cut-out pass from Wallace finds Beale who is in a 2 on 1 situation, draws the defence and puts Maranta over untouched. Round 21 2012 - Claimed a bomb into the corner and forced his way over when the game was basically over. Round 1 2013 - Completing a well orchestrated passage of play where Hodges drew in two before finding Maranta with a well executed flick pass. Round 6 2013 - Prince gathers a typical Parker offload and sums the situation up perfectly with a well executed cut-out pass that finds Maranta who goes over untouched. Round 10 2013 - Granville puts in a grubber, the Titans players fall over and it bounces up for Maranta who simply has to gather it and plant it to score. Round 11 2013 - With little left to play, a brawl erupts dragging in a few players from both the Bulldogs and Broncos. From the ensuing confusion, Parker darts the blind from dummy half, finds Hodges who puts Maranta over in the corner to basically score a consolation try. Round 16 2013 - Prince puts in a grubber behind Vatuvei and Maranta is just able to plant it without going into touch. Round 1 2014 - With the game in the balance, Hunt shifts the ball out to Copley who swivels past one defender, finds Gillett with a pass before Matty hands the ball off for Maranta in the corner. There was a question of obstruction in the lead up but the call went Brisbane's way. Round 3 2014 - Early into the second half, Brisbane go down the blind where they have a 3 on 1 and all Hunt does is pass the ball onto Maranta who dives over. Round 8 2014 - Brisbane work their trademark second man play with Hodges putting Maranta over in the corner. Maranta does reasonably well to get the ball over despite the attention from the oncoming defence. Round 12 2014 - Sea Eagles look to have contained Copley only a few metres out from the try line but somehow Copley got the ball free to Maranta who picked it up off the ground and placed it over to score an easy try. Good awareness from Maranta to recognise the ball was free and beat about 3 Manly defenders to it but not exactly difficult either. Round 24 2014 - Second man play from Hodges who fires a cut-out pass to Maranta 10m out from the Knights line to score. So in summary, he's never scored a try 20m out from the line. [/QUOTE]
