Watching Erin Clark on crowd goes wild during the week, he mentioned that they want to be a pack to be feared and I think we’re just seeing them putting that into practice

Cant want a tough pack and then get mad when the pack act tough

I thought even Marata was better this week. Ran for 100 m and scored a try. Should nearly had 2.
the signs metcalf show are starting to look better and better he was a small key in the 2023 run also. The 2 point field goal attempt at end of 1st half was great for practice and high percentage play seems he picked up on bunnies game last week and the try assist that said i am him to hebie after the try assist vid before kickoff. pray he stays injury free

I can't be bothered reading through 14 pages so will summerise.
Great game (defence wins games) but we had a few dodgy calls go our way.
I'm sure the ref tried real hard in the second half to square things up with all those six again calls but the Phins kept dropping the ball and we defended like our lives depended on it.
Andrew Webster has built a real TEAM culture and the boys all play for each other and the jersey.

Until he gets sent from the field at a crucial moment. I get that he's a good player. He is an NZ test player so he's one of the best in the business.
And Kos mentioned that he's a hard man from Kohukohu. That's fine. And I'm sure that growing up there you didn't mess with him. But scaring people with the threat of physical violence in Kohukohu doesn't count for much on a footy field. Watching him and Clark mouthing off at the Dolphins forwards reminded me of Mick Ennis or Reed Mahoney. It's just empty dickhead bullshit. Everyone knows that no one is going to throw a punch. And they all kiss and make up at full time.
I think I'm talking about mana. Tohu Harris didn't slag people off. But opposition players gave him the respect he was due. You didn't mess with Tohu. Mitch Barnett too.
The young guys coming through are watching. We've already seen that Leka has a cheap shot in him. Last night they were shown by their captain that it's OK to be disrespectful beyond the norm. To stand in a players face and scream insults at him. They were shown by their captain that it's OK to risk 75 minutes of hard slog by the whole team and a win to get his own cheap shot in. JFH braced and dropped his shoulder and went to the bin with the game on the line.
If he was foreman on my old crew and he did something dumb that got him banned from the site nearing the end of a job we'd be having a conversation about his future. OK footy is a bit different but what he did was dumb. He put the team under pressure as the Dolphins were building. I wasn't prepared to bet against them at that point. And if we lost we'd be 7 and 3 and the run would be broken. We're top 4 and everything is crucial. He should know that
how I seen everyone individually.
tanner - solid debut some nice defensive pressure under heavy fatigue
RTS - better for the run rocks and diamonds
Pompey - played to his strengths just solid
Clarke - more of the same must jag a try soon
Fish - mature effort slowing the play the ball winning head games just being a menace there was a set on try line he made 4 big tackles in a row
metcalf - enterprising good kick options at times and under rated on cover defense making it a habbit
Cht - not beating the world but very solid that side of the field was iron walls
Leka - solid game looks like a vet already at times ( when he was watching with a massive smile while fish and clarke were in a push and shove says we keep him )
Cnk - yeah gets a pass
Egan - good but would love to see healy get 30 mins especially towards the end of long blocks of games
barney - more of the same done what we have come to love and expect
dwz - better than last week but still far from 2023 run could build into the season this is game 2
laban - best game so far trend of juniors living up to expectations continues
capewell - having a lomax moment haha your a center son !
demi - unfortunate
martata -best game in a while and domino effect of middles doing there job only so many big bodies you can stop
tmm - didn't really notice him in the game to be honest unsure why

TMM played the last 7 minutes for Egan. Webster puts a lot of faith in his entire team, bench and all. We were playing with 12 so it was a defensive effort at that point to keep them out. Egan looked like he reeled out of a tackle too at one point I thought? When people talk about someone like Hiku just being a natural footy player, I feel like TMM is the same. Apart from his size, not being able to be a front rower or an edge forward, I feel like he could play any other position on the field

Mitch is renowned as the bare knuckle street fighting champ in Newy. Underground hero status for basically an undefeated record regardless of numbers. For years too. We are talking a surfer town, and Mitch would still spend weekends knocking blokes out.
respectfully you are way off base here.
When is Isaako off contract. He’d be a handy addition.
There would not be many better. Sharks perhaps?

cheers for that, no worries, just curious
Are the refs favoring us or have we turned a corner in our discipline ?
Usually at the start of a game we're constantly pinged for infringements .
This season, especially the last few games, we've somehow managed to stay on the refs side and not give away pointless penalties or repeat sets.
Its really been the highlight for me this season.
Well done to the coaching staff and players for this.
