General NSW Cup 2023

[Ever Hopeful]

We look good, but keep giving penalties away late in the set. These are the little things that the FG side has been off on too.

edit - and conceded a try that wouldn't have been without the penalty.

Rubbish penalty marches Bears up the field, and they score after a half break from journeyman Dockar-Clay. Our right side D was stripped and Jesse Marschke steps back inside between Volkman and Going to score just to the left of the posts.

24-12 Bears. 21 to go and the ref calls the drinks break.

Come back was looking good.

Some lazy offside penaltys from the boys to let them back in the game.

Volkman is having a shocker...

those arguing he should have been playing last and this week... what a joke

 

[Rizzah]

Maaaate. Didn't need that from RV

Quietly taking my medicine in the corner

 

[Stalefish540]

Seems our NSW wingers have been watching too many FG highlights, shooting for the sake of shooting.

Bears score in the corner through Alfred Smalley - would have loved to see a replay to see if Laban managed to push him out.

Kicker misses his first of the day. 28-12.
17 to go

 

[Rick O’Shay]

Seems these guys read and believe their own press.

 

[ndp26]

Laban bobbles the ball and drops it - looked like it was backwards for all money. Called a knock on and pressure valve released.

 

[Stalefish540]

Definitely missing some x-factor from Taine, attack has looked very regulation today.

Comparing Buny # 18 and Aloe #13 as they pack into that scrum

Bunty looks massive....

They're both big boys, but Bunty is bigger up top and has probably has 5-10cm on Ale (plus the hair).

 

[Rizzah]

Hands letting them down

 

[Stalefish540]

Tu has held the ball too long today, should have been giving Ali early ball and let him work.

 

[Mr Drag]

Evil refs!

 

[Mr Drag]

Big Bunty magic

Done. Big break down the right side by Leiataua and the boys score two plays later through Bunty barging over.

Poor Ben Farr is trying his guts out, but isn't getting the runners.

 

[ndp26]

28-18 with 7 to go. Clock won't stop in cup games, I don't think.

 

[Rizzah]

Geez, just give it to Ali
