NRL Round 14: Cronulla Sutherland Sharks vs. Gold Coast Titans Saturday 15 August 3:00pm @ Netstrata Jubilee Stadium

Feels like Sorro's performance could go either way at the moment, but he has good upside potential. I like him in to start. He's plenty tough, has a good workrate and is mobile. But yeah, if we're looking for a bench with impact I'm not seeing that from him consistently at the moment, so better options are available.

Jack really doesn't look like he's offering anything that can get him into this side regularly, does he? Even without the errors he's a bit of an old school metre eater, which is less in favour these days. He's kind of falling into the Nikora bucket.

Jack helps the kicking game immensely. 4th tackle run and quick ptb leads to a kick off the front foot more often than not. Makes a nice change from Fifita dancing sideways and then trying to exchange phone numbers with the marker before playing the ball.

P̶a̶u̶l̶ ̶G̶a̶l̶l̶e̶n̶ Jack Williams chokes our attack by taking a hit up every 4th tackle

Doesn't bend the line.

Reckon we get that with Sorro, Burgo?

And yeah, I can't stand that crabby run in that situation. Completely messes up everyone's timing on the kick.

 

[bort]

Doesn't bend the line.

Looks like on average he runs 9.84 meters per run of which 3.15 meters is post contact so he does bend the line, he just bends it back to roughly where it started from.

Given those are average though, most of his 'above average' runs will bend the line okay, it's just the other half of the runs that are not good enough

Was being sarcastic mate. Pauly C used to bag Gal because he apparently didn't bend the line.

Criticism and Williams just go hand in hand, so he often drops it

Chad Williams.

Like the secret ink!

What has Nikora done, Nikora should be in there before Williams I'd say otherwise I like that lineup. I'm not a fan of having Tracey in there, I'll take it though. It seems Nikora has lost his place completely all of a sudden, he's still got potential, only pretty young still aswell, maybe Bomber is just giving him a rest for a few weeks to get his form back up. We have got plenty of forward line options I guess.

Nothing, which is the problem.

He's done nothing wrong I know as you've said but it seems there might be "something" going on behind the scenes, imo he hadn't been in bad enough form to be dropped even from the 17 completely for 2 weeks now.

 

[snowman]

No, he has done nothing. Thats the problem.

 

[sharkboy18]

Well he shouldn't have been dropped thats for sure, how does Williams keep his spot when he had been in even worse form then Nikora.

They play in different positions for a start.

Also, there is a far better option to Nikora atm, a million times better.

I do still reckon he should be in there at least off the bench for Sorro. He played as a good support runner for SJ.

 

[vicsharkfan]

Nikora has brought consistency in the form of nothing...I’d rather Willams with the odd mistake and bit more impact than Nikora with the odd mistake and no impact. Hurry back Fifs miss ya

Yeah for the first half of 2019. Since then his footy has been as good as Tatus's posting.
