"I keep hearing this kids name, Popo......heard he's a gun!!!"
This is a topic i have been dreading for years and been saying the issues for years. I need to write this down as the ideas presented recently are concerning for the NRL moving forward. To summarise, the NRL are looking at, once 20 teams are in, of…
"Its 14 less. Have they go with the same amount of rounds with more teams its 50 more games.
Are you going to pay more money as a tv station or streamer for almost the same amount and less weeks overall of TV content?

Obviously we need to improve our D, in particular our right edge, but our attack is starting to become boring again. 5 plays up, and kick the ball. Very predictable. Mitch needs to run. Run Mitch run. Too much sideways running and handing the ball to teammates for mine. A bit to fix, but is the current coaching staff good enough to fix it? I somehow doubt it, but we will see.
I am not too concerned with our attack. I think it's an easy fix.
Agreed. With D Brown back, we will be much more solid on the edge as well.
A repeat of last years issues again..
What I don't understand is why BA is not going back to what was working before, with Niukore in centres next to Fergo! It was brilliant and defensively sound and he was helping fergo in attack. It's simple and doesn't need much thought behind it.. Brown,Niukore and Fergo on the right, put opacic back on the left next to sivo and have Waqa on the bench or have Fergo on the bench and Waqa on the right wing
It was brilliant because we were playing teams that couldn't exploit our problems.
It's not an individual issue. If Marata was centre last week we probably cop an even bigger mauling .
We have Newcastle this week who can't exploit it either . Our centres (whoever they are ) will look fine this week . They don't have the ball playing ability at fullback without Ponga or the threat in their formation they have with Pearce and Ponga. They more have hard running centres who we will be fine against . It won't mean the problems are fixed. We need to overhaul the defense now so we can be in a better position next time we play a team that can exploit us .
