On paper, so do the cowboys. There really is nothing between most teams in the comp other than who turns up on the day.

when/ if Moses returns they will be hard to beat

Lomax and JAC are high Octane fuel

 

[CWC]

Enjoyed that win, broke the duck, maybe subconsciously supporting them due to Walker, who totally made a difference for them, did the last strong carry too

SJ has got to be the best fox has to offer overall in my opinion. Sounds coherent which puts him above 90% of em.

Fully agree there love his analysis and perspective it's awesome.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

All Aussie commentators show their bias, which is a trait that they cannot see. SJ is a Kiwi and we try very hard to give a balanced view.

that's my frustration with sky commentators. They try to be objective when there is no need to be: no one on the eastern seaboard of Aussie is watching sky. They should be screaming up the wahs from the rooftops!

I know Johnson has said he's there if our halves need him. Also I think he's said he didn't want to get in the way/be around all the time.

It would be great if he could translate his talent into coaching.

Even if it is just as a specialist halves coach. It would be great having someone local and if we want to big on development we'd have someone to help all of the halves coming through. A position we haven't produced a lot of.

Just hope SJ doesn’t spill our beans in one of those podcasts, this is like a freshly retired CIA agent going on podcasts talking about JFK

it's no secret that all teams play pretty much the same structures, just executed to different ability. So I don't think he's spilling any secrets by talking about our plays in depth on that podcast he seems to co-host.

A question for the nrl: why aren't we involved in culture round?

 

[Falcon]

Anyone else look at the table this morning and think they had not included The Wahs?
……. until you looked to the Heavens!

Serious oversight in my mind

 

[Tragic]

SJ> Cooper Cronk or Ennis as Fox Analyst.

Rather he was shit as an analyst and had a premiership ring.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Dolphins must have the smallest pack in this comp.

 

[CWC]

SJ is a true analyst and Ennis is an anal-yst

 

[snake77]

Serious oversight in my mind

Especially how we have been making our home games an event. The club likely would have done something around it.

You would hope it is just a coincidence. Mind you Cameron George did have to query them why we aren't included in indigenous round and had to do it ourselves on the next home game.

Man it's great seeing the Hammer stride out. He glide across the pitch.

 

[Warriorshopeful]

I don't see how that is a forward pass lol especially with some of the other non-calls

 

[run_it_str8_again]

Man it's great seeing the Hammer stride out. He glide across the pitch.

I'd love him in our backline. Or Herbie. Or Xavier Coates. They have that thing we dream about. That mythical substance called speed. I think that's what it's called. Can't remember

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

C'mon phins.

Do something useful.

 

[Worried2Death]

Dylan brown is playing a blinder here. Maybe all he needed was another Dylan.

Parramatta Dylans

 

[Beastmode]

How is that a sin bin!??

What a joke
