The Nines

Just remembered...Guerra with an overlap and 3 men on the outside. Steps infield.

People preferring Watson to Keary at this stage of their respective careers is very reminiscent to people wanting Nikorima over Pearce last year.

I pretty much fell for that trick last year too. But I won't fall for it again this season.

As of right now Keary is a far more polished 5/8 than Watson.

Watson is a dynamic runner but couldn't pass go on a monopoly board.

My first expletive of the season was that very play.

Gary what is your point ?
I have been watching all day and most try's are scored by hitting out then step to the inside shoulder of the defender sliding outwards - a try is a try however you get it , credit should be given for backing your ability and being spacialy aware to convert to points. 95% of players would not have scored from that position.

My biggest concern is our confidence in defence is still an issue, when the attacker runs out hard let the inside man make the tackle if your outside comes in it is an instant overlap, same as last year.

Also Robbo said we had speed, where ? Cows burned us out wide all day - they have some serious speed and by their squad they have shown Nines the respect it deserves as a comp - you should wear the jersey with respect and commitment, where ever you play.

Watson.. Can run, still cannot pass or kick.... Is fullback a possibility ?

[Game Fowl]

ELO I was swearing a lot earlier than that - no respect for ball possession and lack of patience or creativity with the ball.

It is one thing to be involved in everything, it is another when you are running through another "attackers zone" all it does is cramp the attack and make defencive reads easier .

In this format an overlap counts for nought if the defenders are sliding out and not committed else where.

Guerra has been ****ing useless for a long time now. If his shit form continues and TR keeps picking him I'm pretty sure i will destroy every TV in my house watching that slug run around again!!

[Monaco's Fan Club]

Guerra, again, does a terrific impersonation of a 75 yr old cripple...

[Tommy Smith]

Relax, people...

Our 8 best players are at home watching on TV i believe - Pearce, Friend, Keary, Fergo, Cordner, JWH, Napa, SST...

It's only the 9s. I personally don't care.

[bondi-boy]

Bondi-boy don't jump it's early days and this isn't real footy.

Seems like some of you are writing us off for this year already hahahaha

It's very annoying, and very offputting, when our Nines team can't even pass and catch a football without stuffing it up, when they get 6 tackles from a tap in the opposition's 20.
...and then throughout the match.

Surely they must've been doing some training for the competition.

Sad day for the NRL clubs when probably the best drop kick exponent of the day was one of the Jillaroos!
