I'd say so. You blokes stop picking on coaches, we know what we are doing 😆

I reserve the right to denounce coaches. Especially if that coach is an old reserve grade coach.

Ok here we go lads, I seem to say this every game but oh well, this game will go a long way to maybe an unlikely finals spot, which I will confess I thought we had no hope in hell a few weeks ago. The loss of Su'a will be missed but hopefully one of the other forwards can step up. We cant afford to allow the Phins a fast start and then try and catch up, line speed will be the key in defense and then get the ball out to our backs in attack. Lets stay switched on for the full 80 min and keep a good eye out for the Hammer,,,,, lets go the Dragons another win up there will do our confidence a world of good, UP the mighty saints !!!!

We can finish 8th this season if we find consistency, win this and that's 3 in a row.

I believe we have a superior pack taking into account their injuries and player returning from injury.

They are faster in the backs, so don't allow them room to obtain top speed, they can't get to top speed without legs.

Minimise the number of missed tackles, no more than 1.5 per player.

Complete your sets in possession, minimising your unforced errors.

Do not kick directly to their fb, if you do so make sure you don't have a staggered chase.

Do not allow their halves time, watch out for Kotoa dummy passes and Nikorima taking on the line.

We should win this game if you do your individual jobs and stick to the game plan. Job done, game won, up the ladder we go. Simples

Totally agree Jo, do you think their backs are faster. yes the Hammer over Gutho but pretty even otherwise , just my thoughts.

I disagree about us having a superior pack. We would have if 3 of our first choice pack wasn't injured.

He most certainly hasn't been dropped, he's finally being rested due to an ongoing shoulder injury that hes been playing with for a while and getting needled for. Was basically holding the fort till Max was back.

I see. He was "rested" to make way for Max Plath returning from injury.

I hope the players get your message jodragon40, in particular completing sets in possession and minimising unforced errors. Both teams appear to have similar strengths and weaknesses. I believe the team which dominates possession will bring home the chocolates.
