R6's RLWC2013 Rooster Reviews

Wallace and Soward.... How will that all go.

I can't see Isaac John not getting a start there next year so either Wallace or Soward will be playing a lot of footy at windsor

I'm hoping, if Mini does end up on the wing outside SKD, that his experience will ensure that combination holds up good. This is particularly the case in defence, as Mini can use his fullback instinct to read a play and make a decision. Obviously this isn't as easy on the wing in contrast to fullback where he can see the whole play in front of him and then lead the team around.

Attack is a tad concerning, considering Mini isn't the fastest anymore and, especially outside SKD, being on the end of some quality ball may be difficult. Also, in attack mini has been known to struggle with his hands...

None the less I still hope we re-sign Mini as I'm sure he will do a great job for the team

Mini's strength is his captaincy, the team cannot win back to back unless he is the leader

As a fullback he will be average, but an average Mini is better than most.

Stats just got updated and Sheck ended up with 17 tackle breaks... Freak!

Roger 'Sheik le Freak'

Have you noticed how much bigger he's become in the past months

He's also gotten faster too, I never thought him to be that quick but he raced away in that try.

Is a replay of this game shown anywhere? Would like to see just how good RTS went.

Just missed it pelican. Showed the replay at 330 on 7 maaaaaate.
He went well mate. His first try was more poor defence from there winger. He caught the cross field kick in the field of play and used his strength to muscle over the try line. Should have really been bundled into touch.
The second was weird. He caught a chip/grubber from Linnett and had two defenders in front of him and sort of goose stepped but the defenders were setting themselves up for the big left foot step. He just went straight and away he went. Was a very polished performance and the form winger at the cup just ahead of the Pom Ryan Hall

Darkone don't write shit like that. Buzz may be sniffing around and run a story on Shek being linked to a dodgy sports science program that the club secretly had him on

[The Pelican]

Thanks for that R6 and Rooboy.

I can't wait to see RTS next year, hopefully at fullback where he can fully achieve his potential, and add yet another dimension to our attack.

Cordner not playing.

Shek is 20, so no longer being a teenager would be playing a big part in his body mass increasing.

He certainly is no longer the kid with skinny legs.

Good to see Slater finally cashing in on all that bad karma from constantly leading with the knee or foot. Looks like a PCL to me. Tibia pushed back by the USA hip he tried to knee. Similar to how ruckmen do it in aussie rules.

What was the score in the Aus/US quarter?

What was the score in the Aus/US quarter?

62-0.

Although the USA played well, they just couldn't stop Hayne and Morris on the right side, both got 4 tries.
