We were up 16 nil Williams with the first 2 tries.
If Finau is on one wing, Egan in the backow, suddenly we'll have a surplus of good outside backs and backrowers.
As in Finau Latu the 13 he threw the last pass.
From what I've seen the complete opposite to your mail.
Is he overrated? I saw him in just a couple of NSW Cup games last season and in the U19s Origin game and thought he was an absolute gun.
Ok I will try and confirm my info. Apparently he is highly rated by the coach.
He was promoted into the top 30 despite being a teenager so the club obviously sees something good in him.
Ok my mail is that young Tamale is a centre he will be be in the 17 sometime this season sooner rather than later. I believe that the Bird in the centre gamble won't pay off and I would expect Tamale to take that spot. Also my mail is that Rav has re signed until 2026 and the wing spot is his barring injuries. I've also been informed that the coach has been concentrating heavily on our defensive structures and fitness levels. This should ensure that we no longer leak on an avg 28 points a game and the team should be competing for the full 80 mins instead of the current 65 minutes which augurs well for us on paper, but as you would be well aware football isn't played on paper.
I dont get over excited these days because of our recent poor retention and recruitment but I have been watching him since he left that other game and in my humble opinion this kid with the right mentoring and natural talent, barring injuries can not only play for the sky blues in years to come but also pull on a kangaroos jersey. He does need to work much harder on his defence because his tackling efficiency rate isn't up to 1st grade standards yet.
Nice pass. Who was it and can he play 5/8 this year?
That was another outstanding prospect playing lock, Finau Latu. That is a wonderful pass from a lock forward linking as a 2nd 5/8 in a backline , something that I have wanted to see from JDB.
It's also got to do, as you always say, a prop or hard running forward getting the team on the front foot to make that pass possible.
Honestly since I became involved in 1970 the basics of good RL hasn't changed that much. Your bookends make or surpass the advantage line, fall forwards onto their stomach when tackled, get up as quickly as possible whilst the opposition defensive line is backpedalling and not moving forward in a straight line clear the ruck area with a quick crisp pass from your dummy half and take advantage of the opportunities that you have created. Hold onto the ball. Simples.
I don't understand what you mean by "my mail"
For those without FB I've posted the video above.
The mad dragon should be giving credit to the person he's copying the videos from.
That was Ryan Hutchinson with the run and yes good coaches will tell you the try is set up 2 or 3 rucks before.
