Official Connor Tracey

[ben]

Sifa played his worst game yesterday. Looked dead flat. But prior to that he was on fire - so don’t agree with him there.

Man I don't know about Tracey in the centres. But then again, atleast if Talakai is in the forwards maybe we can atleast have one forward hit 100m..

That's just snowman's mate though

Also he said Nicho has been good recently so unclear he has been watching

Yeah that Nicho bit made me laugh.

I liked this bit:
I fully expect to cop "do you think you know better?" replies in the comments ... if Fitzgibbon named an unchanged line-up this weekend, the answer is a resounding "Yes. Yes I could!"

He could know better
He doesn’t, but he could

I like the humility

apart from sunday, what game has he not been good in?

 

[puma1355]

This guy needs to be in the 17. He gives 120% in every game. More than I can say about alot of others. It's great to be good but attitude is a different skill that not many have

Supposedly he was poor against the Broncos because a couple of his kicks hits some legs, even though he had 4 linebreak assists and a try assist

Always play's well above he's weight.

I would like to see him given a go in the team for a while.

Was still guilty of trying to do too much imo.

And missed tackles, and poor fifth tackle options.

He had a shocker.

4 linebreak assists and a try assist and he had a shocker supposedly.

Sharks didn't make a line break after the 45th minute. A reasonable description of what went down in that game would be something like "Nicho had some great moments in the first half, but had some very poor fifth tackle options/execution in the second half which cost the team. He and his fellow spine members couldn't make anything happen at the back end of the game even though his forwards and back 5 were able to give the team plenty of possession and field position. Very mixed bag from the whole spine, Nicho included".

Instead what we get is "Brailey sucks, Moylan sucks, Talakai sucks, the forwards all suck, and here are some fantasy stats which show Nicho was good".

That's why they are Fantasy Stats

Yep that's a very fair summary.

I only caught second half of Bris game too, so I may be a bit skewed by my impression of how he played

Great post

Great post where Burgo’s catch phrase calls it out as a mixed bag but you said he had a shocker.

I don’t disagree, I’m retorting against the line of thinking that he was poor, which he was not.

If the passes stick in that game and Ronaldo catches a bomb we win and everyone has a different take on his performance. Strange how it’s different when he’s not the one dropping the passes or not catching the bombs.
