Round 12: Dolphins vs Melbourne Storm

Thanks god for Coats selfishness. It could have gotten ugly.
 
Really poor discipline from Kafusi and Kenny Bromwich.
 
I guess at least we'll win the second half. Milf needs to be in the run on team.
 
Well played everyone, especially our ESL insider midlands hobo midlands hobo. Not the best game tonight ut Melbourne wil beat plenty of top teams by more than that this season.

It did.

I think we will see some very good stuff from him in defence. However, in attack in the centres he will cost us.

I know he runs hard. But he bombs shitloads.

He would be better off on the bench as a backrow replacement. As he showed at the warriors

That wil probably be the case next year. The second one, when he dropped the ball, a lot of players would drop that ball. But the first one when he didn't pass was a bombed try.

Niko has been their best player during the past month. He'll be starting for the rest of the year unless his form dips.

Milf controls the game so much better. I'm a Niko fan but feel his best position is coming on, almost anywhere, when the other teams forwards are tiring.

Not really. Obviously at halftime everyone was less excited but I guess most didn't expect us to win anyway.

Melbourne outplayed us but we weren't that far away.

Yep, bombed the no pass.

The second one where he drops it. He shows poor technique to take the pass. Yes the pass his high, but he tries to use his head to catch it, rather then jumping slightly with both feet in the air, turning side on and catching it with two hands out in front.

I know some of you guys like him, and you’re supporting the team. I get it. But he is very poor in attack. I saw it over many years at the dragons and I don’t see any difference here.

Kerr next year will be a worry too. The guy is massive, and like Blake Lawrie he is one of the softest forwards for his size going around.

I only like what's best for the team. Right now, I'm on the side of those who doubt him as a long term centre. But I still think the pass was hard and high. 50-50 on whose fault it was. But the first non pass was Aitkens fault. No doubt.

If there is one thing certain about Wayne's coaching, he doesn't put up with soft forwards. But every club needs depth.
