NRL Round 6 - Tigers Vs Knights - 4:05pm Sunday, 12th April - Campbelltown Sports Stadium

The halves kicking game is just not big enough. I fully get its windy but need brown back for his boot badly

The halves are kicking dumb, stop putting up a midfield bomb in that wind.....kick for the corners and make them work it out, instead we are gifting them 30 metres every time

 

[HarVeeGee13]

Unless the players have lost the plot Holbrook has has a stinker here, this is so many bombs into the wind it feels like it must be a tactic.

 

[Seano]

IDK about win but it's very much like the Warriors, turn overs, penalties and poor kicking comes at a price...maybe we avoid 50.

 

[jamesgould]

Its a shame neither Marzhew or Young are really pre-disposed to playing centre. A lot easier to bring in a player to debut on the wing than centre ... defensively at least. Back in the day that's how it used to work.

 

[Sheent14]

Shouldn't be an issue with Sharpes elite kicking game?

I don’t think anyone thinks Sharpe has an elite kicking game haha. It’s on Smith the halfback to have the game awareness to not run the ball on the 4th 4 times in a half.

 

[Joel.M]

I get Wilson is having a shocker but our forward pack went no where that 1st half

 

[Alex]

We can still win this game if we get some ball in hand. We really need to fix up our end of sets out of our half and our halfback needs to stop running it on 4th!
We apparently have the bunker on our side so there is a chance

Haha there is no way we're even getting close to winning this game

 

[mozza]

Don’t let WDC’s Carige like performance distract us from how mediocre Hunt is. Sharpe to fullback if Brown is good to go. His handling is a liability.

 

[Jon Snow]

Lucas to Centre bring on Cant.

Have to. Do something, I’m turning it off if he’s still out there. As someone said, they’re just standard plays they are running out that edge too.

 

[Seano]

I think they've just been on the backfoot...not a tactic so much as the Tigers line speed and our lack of go forward.

 

[knights80]

Are you all realising that Graham is already out there so they can’t and won’t put Gamble on unless an injury happened to a half
And it’s not like Hunt has played that good at centre either in previous stints

There’s a difference between coming on for half a game like WDC did last week, but it’s on Holbrook for picking him also when McArthy would have been safer option

Still we have had 30% possession and running into the wind, so it’s probably too far gone big they just need to use the wind and gain momentum like tigers did to even grab back 18 points to take something out of the game at this stage

 

[HarVeeGee13]

I think it's pretty simple here though, we can throw all the hate in the world at Wilson that we like but we're ignoring the fact we're being absolutely destroyed in the middle and allowing them to move the ball to the edges.

De Courcey probably gets hooked at halftime but you could probably argue that most of the 13 out there deserve to be hooked

A lot of this is just classic PVLball, the early game stuff which went against us started the ball rolling down the hill and we couldn’t work back into it.

 

[Wagyu Patty]

On the bright side our next three games are Roosters, Panthers, Souths... Heh

 

[Mclovin]

It doesnt help that Marzhew is turning his shoulder out constantly to get ready for the winger, but this just creates problems for a young center who is clearly struggling

Watch his positioning, it's so bad that it's not even funny and he allows his player to always beat him on the outside.

He has let in every single try

 

[Sarge]

I'd make the change 10 minutes ago, WDC is done

Yep would say his confidence is shot

 

[Beatell]

Our 1-7 have not helped at all today. Forwards lacked the energy of the tigs to start with and total domination since then. Anyone thinking Smith is going to hold the 7 when Brown comes back, watch that 40 mins on repeat. i want to turn it off but i just cant. To play like this against the Tigers makes it even worse.

 

[slotmachine]

I don’t think anyone thinks Sharpe has an elite kicking game haha

Was a few crowing last week after he had a couple of decent ones

They can put Gamble on, it just means Cant won’t play & we can’t make another injury sub.

 

[Thieves Like Us]

- Sandon keeps getting caught on the 4th. Where’s the game intelligence?
- Wilson looking shakier than me after 3 days on the booze.
- Wind should hopefully be at our backs in the 2nd half which should help our kicking game.
