Roosters vs Knights Match Discussion

[Guest]

Yeah Mataka went really well also. Thank fark Mini finally go a try.

Was Guerra dropped last season because of injury? I thought he had a good game.

[Spirit of 66]

My thoughts exactly. A win is a win but that was nothing to write home about. Some good performance though especialy Guerra IMO

Guerra was great. Keep him.

Anasta made one bad mistake, but showed improvement too.

I think injured and then couldn't get back into first grade. He was impressive today.

yeah I have to admit Banasta improved today although it would have been hard not to. That was his best game this year.

That was painful. I thought that after the Knights scored their first try they'd run away with it.

Full credit to Anasta, he had a very solid game, put SKD away for his first try, pretty solid kicking and passing game and saved a try under the sticks with his tackle on McDonald.

Carney looks better but still isn't taking on the line. Friend had a good game, looked dangerous from dummy half. Guerra was very solid, they just couldn't tackle him, he should be on the bench for the rest of the year. JWH showed what he can do when he cuts out the stupid penalties, our best forward and was damaging. It was good having Ryles back, his experience and go forward was needed badly. Naughton also looked very good today, he's got a future.

Riddell HAS to go though, I had a heart attack everytime he touched the ball. He stifles attack and runs poor short side plays that often have us losing possession. Also Perrett > J. Carney. You don't ever see Perrett make mistakes under the high ball anymore. If we have to choose between these two short centres/wingers Perrett has my vote seven days of the week.

Also congratulations to Mini for equaling Bill Mullins top try scoring record for the club, here's hoping it's the first of many more for the year now.

Agree with everything except the bit about Naughton. He's too small to be a winger in my opinion and rarely looks like breaking a tackle. He just doesn't give me any confidence at all when play comes out his way.

I'm of course happy for the guy to prove me wrong. though.

And that's not a good thing

Considering our injuries and origin duties stoked to get away with the 2 points.

JWH has really started to step up this year.

[Guest]

I actually thought it was a very entetaining match. The best part? We tried, and backed each other up. Its all I ask. Everyone was accountable today.

Spot on!!

We need to re-build confidence and there was a lot to take out of today.

[Guest]

That should be how JWH plays every game, no crap just run hard and tackle (and set up tries. lol).

[RooSta]

Best game I have seen Jwh play really led from the front today 22 tackles 16 hitups also guerra skd mataka were impressive.. Still struggling to score points we dominated today buy jus couldn't get over the line

does anyone else not get the hype surrounding naughton? to me he just seems like a massive liability in defence

I would have to agree with you there. Very overhyped.
