General NSW Cup 2024

[Tragic]

Enjoyable game
Raw talent on show from the Warriors
Bulldogs are very mechanical

Better coached? Or at least playing more like a team?
Demetric been quiet.

It’s something different
If I wanted to watch a robotic, one dimensional style I’d watch our FG team.. unfortunately that style wins games..

We can't have used many subs in the first half as Durbin and Auloa haven't been on yet and Sifakula looked to play big minutes. Should see a bit more rotation in the middle in the second half

 

[JaggedJ]

Errors and penalties. Discipline has been the big difference.

 

[Tragic]

Dogs really like a forward pass. Linesman must be looking the other way

Ali makes it look so easy

 

[Tragic]

I reckon Pasikala will be good, gets to the right places and seems to make good decisions

Ali makes it look so easy

Was limping around behind the play - looks like a lower leg niggle. Hopefully he can get his injuries right / avoid them altogether (don't want him being tarred with 'that' brush).

 

[Tragic]

Their forwards look much bigger, hopefully get tired, not enough speed work

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Is it me or is Pasikala too casual?

It's you.

It's you.

That wasn't good. Bad slide there from Ali - needs consistent game time to get his D right.

 

[Aman 2.0]

Ali not a 80 minute player just yet. Too many injuries this year to get the engine ready

Playing on the wrong side isn't he?

He’ll be sweet, only had 2 grade games and killed both

 

[ndp26]

Playing on the wrong side isn't he?

I think he can play both (and played 6 vs bunnies in Cup last year too). I just think his lateral movement is off due to his injuries - it was similar in the Panthers game, he was great on attack, but struggled a bit on D. Huge target when a player struggles with lateral movement (a la Walker on an edge v Titans ).

 

[Cces]

Playing on the wrong side isn't he?

We've only seen him on the other (right) side in first grade but has played a few games there in Cup including a game at #6 where he controlled the left edge

 

[Tragic]

Good to see Hayze going well

 

[ndp26]

For those who aren't watching, unfortunately a couple of soft tries mean we're now down 34-10.

Make that 38-10 with a kick to come. Grubber in behind Kosi and Pasikala wasn't quick enough to get there (could have shown a bit more urgency...).

Hayze Perham putting on a clinic on that right side. Kiwis love playing against the Warriors!
