Junior Reps 2025

[Mailroomsgi]

That makes sense, gives him time to get his body right. The only knock on him is his size really

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

were a rly good side when were not making errors.

Thinking same. Our last 15 mins was exceptional. Ten mins first half also. The remaining 45 was mistake riddled dross. Best were Smythe, Stanley-Traill, the big rt centre and play maker Charlie Doyle. A footnote on the giant bookend Fuitalo (sp). Looked lazy fior starters, but when he had ball in hand took a brick wall to stop him. Has an offload too. But if he has a weak motor then a moot point.

 

[Mailroomsgi]

Interested to see how these positional changes go

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Its decent enough, sometimes they have commentators, but mostly its just the raw footage so you have to really pay attention and have names <> jersey numbers ready for a lot of them.

Why dont SAINTS Matts and Ball Cups have commentary yet others do. Agree is annoying when trying to identify for online commentary. I will attempt to add some ball by ball for these two games today. Just to cover the gaps left by the pathetic live blog. There is also a Ressies Trial against the Chooks. Ball Cup first up.

Only change is CST to lock for their best player Smythe (injured). Hale takes his place. For mine Hikila is the weak link in this pack while Hale wont help the middle defense, unless he has been hitting the tackle machine with gusto at training.

Smythe (injured).

Graphic did not show that Smythe has been moved to prop (#8). Not a big dude, but a good worker.

That's how they played last week

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Problem with the feed. gggrrr.

 

[TheRev]

Oh Smythe is still there but back into #8.

Damn I missed this, they do have the nsw cup trial:


I'm going to be out most of the day, It's going to be a long night catching up.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Problem with the feed. gggrrr.

Missed the Dragons opening try. converted 6-0 after five mins. Samuel Mardini the try scorer

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Some silly errors handing Chooks easy field position

good line defence holds em out.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Half Sarg - Wilson is Hunt like, with too little constructive play when first receiver. Doyle looks to have more play making ability with most good movements when he is involved.

 

[Mailroomsgi]

Makes my brain hurt watching this team play, so many dumb errors and no strike.

I like Okusitino though, he’s classy

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

May have just bombed a try from a poor pass by the little centre.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Sweeping movement sees left wing Zach Nachar cut inside to score.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Almost in again. Win a penalty, S-W misses the shot. 12-0 at oranges

Needs more ball.

Hale does not look like an edgie.

 

[Mailroomsgi]

I don’t mind him there, he’s super athletic and mobile for a backrower + tall. Should get more game time there IMO

Not just CST to 13 (Smythe to 8), but Baruani the lanky wing import is out too with Mardini in #5 who scored the first try (was an easy one), Hale moved out of centres to 2nd row (big unit but lots of issues @ctr), Cayuqueo replaced him #3.

Apart from wing change all the others happened last week
