Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3659633, member: 1899"] It was only a matter of time before the Dolphins closed out one of those tight games. They made it difficult on themselves but even during the chaos they always seem comfortable spreading the ball and timing their passes. That try to Averillo to give them the lead was really well constructed. Have to give Warriors their due, they tried. Barnett reminds me so much of Carrigan, he busts his gut and does everything he can to put them into position. They just lack direction and have too many lapses in their defence to be a boring one-out grind them down side. I can't remember DWZ getting any good ball when he was such a big part of their system last year. Newcastle/Wests was a game only a Knights fan could love. Pretty ugly stuff but the Knights were the stronger side. The only question the Tigers seemed to ask at the death was whether Galvin would run, pass or kick. There wasn't much shape, especially after Sezer went off and it made life easy on the Knights defence. It's difficult to get overly invested in Wests at the moment since it seems like Richo plans on making a host of changes. After Bula stole the show in 2023, it seems like another rookie has stolen it in Galvin. It's too much responsibility on young players and there's just not enough senior voices out there. I think Doueihi has tried, but is still struggling with the physicality of the game after such a long lay-off. [/QUOTE]
