Dry conditions at Go Media stadium

60 min 34 - 14 CAN WE HOLD ON AGAINST THE REIGNING CHAMPS?

66 min Jaxson Allen little grubber from dummy half for Ben Johnson centre too score Dooner converts 40 -14

[mightyrooster]

So is Rodwell playing NSW cup? If Talau is playing that must mean Toops won’t pull out in the last hour?

68 min short kickoff Jaxson Allen sprints away 60 metres to score Dooner misses from wide out 44 -14

If you mean Toby no

Dooner 5/8
Foley Halfback

73 min Foketi barges over Dooner misses 48 -14

[mightyrooster]

If you mean Toby no

Yes sorry I meant Toby. And I also forgot it’s an extended 6 man bench these days and he’s on the bench so wouldn’t be playing NSW Cup. My bad.

Yeah Foks

FT 48 - 14 10 tries to 3

[roosterchook]

We can only wait and see. I still don’t think we are a top 8 team unless we can get our completion rate over 75% regularly and improve drastically in defense. Also our players are ageing such as Teddy, Toups and DCE. Can they handle the speed of the game anymore? Time will tell.

FT 48 - 14 10 tries to 3

Only concern, missed 5 or 6 conversions
Not sure where on the field they were taken but have been nice to put 50 on the board
great result

The Round 1 side to face the Warriors has been finalised

Coach Trent Robinson has finalised his team for the season opener.

Naufahu Whyte moves to lock forward with Blake Steep moving to the bench. Spencer Leniu moves to prop with Salesi Foketi dropping off the reserve list and will play NSW Cup prior.

Bet they don't kick off to Spence.
