NSW Cup and Jersey Flegg, 2024

Finally good try by Muhleisen. Tuitavake has been very strong as well . I like the props rotation of this team good go forward.

My 3 standouts from halftime are still my 3 standouts at fulltime though adding Egan for the amount of work he did. LPT needs to be fitter. Like Fifita, good for only a short period. LKT wasn't good or bad. Buchanan hardly saw the ball.

What a turn around with Flegg now leading 34-24 and looking winners with 10 left on the clock. Well I did say there is talent in this Flegg side. Absolute joke that we fans cant see this and other lower grades videoed live and free.

I'm a bit behind watching games, but NSW Cup notes:
==============================================
Huge win for our season in NSW Cup (18-14), it was a lot closer than we would have hoped given the Roosters had around 50% completion and 46 missed tackles... but we ironically won on goalkicking (which is a 1st):
  • Jack Bird was competent after he warmed into the game, he got to most kicks... but as I mentioned earlier his lack of speed was exposed badly on several occasions (but mostly just early on).. but tbf he did a couple of good things later on including stopping a winger scoring. They spoke to him after the game, he was meant to play ctr (which I think is his long term spot, replacing Shereb), but Nu Brown went up and a reshuffle happened.
  • Buchanan had some errors, hes rly not exploding in NSW Cup like id hoped for someone who might be fast-tracked.. early days but combined with his smaller body... hes not rly creating anything... I think hes a left ctr also playing on the right.
  • Fifita FFS.. this guy.. its like dejavu... 2 big carries that looked epic and then his hands on hips behind the line sucking em in.. next carry is an error and next one is a bad pass for another error.. i dont understand what happens at training, this must be very obvious that his fitness is not up to standard, is he a lazy trainer or is this just the best his body can handle?
  • Tonga however in his 2nd game is aready way in front of Fifita.. lots of carries, all of them big and strong.. seems a bit slow to accelerate, I think thats just his massive frame, but he seems to have enough endurance.. its a no-brainer, hes easily handling this grade.
  • Coric is playing for his career, smashing it up.. maybe he stays on in a nsw cup contract capacity next year? I do see some synergy between him and a young Lawrie though.... AlecT was rly strong also as usual.
  • LKT had a few moments himself.. not sure what to make of his progress, he goes alright, but he doesnt cut thru like he did in lower grades.
  • Egan doing Egan things.. defensively strong.. chased a speedy winger and keep him to the corner which in a close game was important.. still not sure hes a keeper though.

Finau up the middle, Pek under the post
28-24
o TPH to flegg fullback has been my secret fantasy (no disrespect to the mighty b-rumble), how did he handle it? Was he electric, or just did his job?

o Also how did Fagalilo go in place of Hjaltason?
