Like any team they play to their strengths , but that equation depends on if the other team allows you to. In most cases like on Thursday they won't. They will play to their strengths and in that match on Thursday their strengths certainly out muscled our strengths . That is football
Brown looks to have the goods. Can play 5/8, hooker, dont see why he cant slot into f/b or the outside backs if needed. If Mbye can, so can he.
Going to need at least 2 of them. Lomax is gone and I can't see Bird being in the centres for much longer.
In that case I will opt for Tamale as this pair built quite a good combo in Ressies last year. New coach Ben Wolfe has since separated them and the outside backs have made less breaks down that left edge as a result.
Typically the Cup coach is told by the first grade coach where to play various players on the cusp of first grade. Flanno apparently has concerns over Tamale's defence. In theory what he is doing now is merely trying to get Tamale's defence right.
Thanks for you dedication. If you want to see a full replay I think I can help. Send me a PM if you do but it was a horror show. Unless you like horror movies, don't watch.
Thanks for the offer but I have access to all games in all grades, so it will be on my list to watch during the week.
He missed half his attempted tackles under a coach who prides his teams performances on defence and wins "coaches award". Makes sense.
Which was the first?
No favouritism there. His statistics were jaw dropping, in attack he made 9 runs for an outstanding 35m, with a more remarkable 3m post contact metres,. In defence he was equally affective making 15 tackles, missing only 7 so just under 50% . My grandson had better statistics playing for the U17s. I should be requesting a review of his coaches decision not to award him the coaches award. I feel aggrieved.
TBH it's even worse than that looks. He is supposed to be a playmaker rather than a ball runner but his playmaking sills are almost non-existent. He catches and passes. He caught teams out twice by dummying and running but not that trick has now expired as well.
Dolphins game
It could be another touch up. There will be a bounce back but will it be enough to be competitive for the full 80 mins? I very much doubt it.
