10 Straight Points!

Well, I want to start by saying that I am far from impressed with tonight's win. Given the tigers were without their two best players as well as their halfback, tonight was a golden opportunity to put this team to the sword and really rack up a score. But we didn't.Anyway, positive news. With the bye next week, that will be 10 straight points for the blue and gold! I believe the last time we recorded 10 straight points was in 2009. Yes, 4 of those points were from the bye rounds, but even without the byes, we are still riding a 3 game win streak, which again is something we haven't done in god knows how long.What's been impressive about this streak is the fact that we are playing without a lot of key players and we are still winning games.I just want to give a quick shout out to the king of Fiji, Mr. Semi Radradra. FIVE STRAIGHT DOUBLES!!! Huge achievement for the young lad.Enjoy the bye round folks, because we have a tough couple games coming up to follow the bye. (Dogs H & Cowboys A)

"We got flogged last year in the very same game by 50 points. What did we learn? What did we change? Nothing! Got flogged again by 50. Ryles has a long lomg eay to go. If you dont learn from your mistakes you never improve. Negative 50 is like 3…"

"Look maybe tomorrow i'll feel better but there was this concern of Ryles being buddy buddy. With Anasta on Pezet deal. Going back to Dragons well for de Belin.
Do i give up on Ryles? Of course not, but so far there are the first two blight in his…"

"What makes a utility a utility? Is it being on the bench or actually being a versatile athlete? Joash is a fullback, that's it, he is 18th man but that doesn't mean he is 'cover' that's a mistake I expect Ryles to learn from, expect Samrani and or…"

Play poor and still win that in itself is great considering we have played alot better but lacked the mental edge in past. Radradra what a freak!

We are finding ways to win ugly which is good but it won't be enough against the stronger sides. Lets hope we can turn it on v the dogs in 2 weeks. Go u eels boys.

I feel ya they were down on troops the tigers but when you think about our injury toll and high rotation of players and positional changes we are going ok. Not great but a win no less

I thought this game would be hard fought and it was. It's what we needed in my view. Canterbury is the game we need to be up for, as Cowboys won't lose to us up there. In all honesty I think we will win a few more games, but finish on about 24. Think we are giving away to much ball, and putting pressure on our attack with those short passes. Any way a good win.

If we complete like we did against the dragons we could easily make the 8.
