He may well bleed the jersey, but TT is a better player.

That is a bold take.
Hmmm
Cnk s bravery defence and solid hit ups provide a massive boost
Tt may be better at attack in some areas but Cnk overall is the better player
Tt s lack of size works against him in some parts of the game too
I like both but at this stage Cnk for me

This is going to be an interesting finish to the season. Boyd will get all the time and oppertunity to cement a place as the starting seven.
If we make top 4 still this year and he has a good finals series, then he gets half of next season and if we are traveling we'll then. Does metcalf walk back into the side off the back of another ACL?
Man this injury to metcalf has thrown a spanner in the works! Webby and co may have a huge call to make next year.

I'm a huge Berry fan, and the club will keep persevering as he hasn't had any serious ones.
But some players just know how to sniff out an injury. You see it all the time in the NRL.
His size does work against him for sure. Just like CNK's lack of a pass or creativity with the ball works against him. Neither are perfect players and neither should be our fullback beyond the next 2 years if we are serious about competing for trophies. Just have to hope Lemana, Putoko, Norris or Ratcliffe can develop into an elite number 1.
So solid on our game plan tonight. A lot of stars in the mix. Ford, Egan, RTS and TT. But for mine that pin point kicking game and ease of passing when deep in the line from Tanah was a stand out difference. Love, love, love Metcalf bit he seems way more structured and direct and his kicking game is solid off the back of a dominant pack tonight. Just suits the style we are playing with. Feeling confident about a #top4 finish right now!

That’s must see viewing from 1.42 onwards. Priceless
Bro that is some therapy right there, watched it in sync with the game today haha!

Respect, Beast. I respect what you're saying but I have another angle. I'm a firm believer on who's the better, prepared, team on the day. AND, tbh, anything can happen on that said day. The bounce of the 'Rugby League Ball' is what makes this fu(kin Brilliant Game so Incredible.
The Passion from the Boys today was enough to tell Me to put some lazy coin on 'em to make the GF and Win it!
2003 - The NZWarriors were, pretty close, favourites to take it out. Instead they got beat by an under rated black cat mob, who quietly slipped under the radar, before the Big Dance.
Anyhow, I'm pumped! Any team on paper should get one over Us because they Should! Glass half full sez "Ahh Nah." The other half relies on the results of others of course, Good night.
Yes. Spray cans too! Lol
Impressed with Boyd's ability to play both sides of the attack, freeing up CHT to run more. And his goal-kicking was more accurate than Metcalf's. What a replacement for Webster to call upon. Are we sure we signed up the right Berry? Could swap Rocco for Teagan Berry, she's the NRLW's all-time top tryscorer.

Completely forgot that Capes wasn't even playing. He's a big in to come back in next week.
Lots to like with both Tannah's and Taines game today, and the comparison with the players they replaced inevitable really.
As most have already commented when we threw up shape the directness and how deep Boyd goes into the line creates so much more space for his edges so it felt like we looked more dangerous on our shifts. Game management with his boot as well was top class, accuracy and length, even when we didnt make the 40 he was still able to bring it down in their 10.
Taine is obviously much more a threat ball in hand than Charnze and plays a more traditional supporting sniping role around the the ruck, with his fast feet sniffing half chances, whereas Charnze is all about defence and yardage.
I would however hold off anointing either of them permanent lock ins just yet tho. Thought the Tigers were poor defending in the middle and our pack dominated for long periods. The ruck speed we were getting and the space that was creating was insane at times.....want to see when we dont get this (as has happened various times throughout the season) how these guys respond,
Back on track but not getting too carried away. The disconnect in that right edge defence is still a worry, Dallin and Rocco look all out at sea when the opposition shift, and even further infield i think Marata's lateral mobility is causing doubt.....really wish we could nail that down.
And Demetric from bench.....mighty
