Waratahs 2018

Highlanders report of the game have it that Highlanders wound up the pace in the second half to thump NSW

Second 3rd. It really isn't an indicator of the season. We dont know how many, if any changes from both sides were made after we led 10-7 at 1/3 time but got smashed in the second. And most of the first string players were rested. I agree with others that it would be interesting to know how the fringe payers performed rather than scores

No, no, this is an indication of what your season will hold. In the words of Clubber Lang: "Pain, pain, pain."

Go and troll somewhere else.

Obviously missed the emoticon, or don't comprehend the use thereof.

Throwing stones in glass houses...Rebels and their mega-squad should have made easy work of the Brumbies

Pfft, you guys have got nothing. The Reds played an internal trial and we still couldn’t win.

Dude, stop posting the same thing. Leave it alone. I have deleted it twice. Move on.

The side she selected isn't what I expect, but this was interesting

Wing is another of the more open spots in the Waratahs' line up, with few specialists in the squad. Naiyaravoro has dropped close to 10 kgs in the preseason and might just be given a reward for his efforts.

That line up does not overall inspire that this is a team destined for the finals personally. But hopefully some more astute coaching might see more out of the cattle this year.

Tahs have regresssed under Gibson IMO, basic skill sets and fluency of the game plan seems to have worsened each year under his tenure. Squad wise they have one capable of winning the championship, But it’s the coaching which will let them down.

Not unfair, but I think the number 1 thing that's slowly regressed under Gibson is roster quality.

What impact are we expecting from Cron?

What impact are we expecting from Cron?

I expect a lot, based on his amazing work in club rugby, turning an anonymous team into a slick, well organised, outfit, with great attack and great defense.



Then again, it all depends on the Head Coach, he is the boss. He can choose to give Cron some real responsibility, or he can sideline him.

I love seeing talented coaches coming through the ranks. Very little in the way of pathways for them, so I'm very hopeful for Cron. Naturally the lead is Gibson, but it's great seeing Cron standing in front of an opening door.

He must be lean as. You do wonder whether this will just detract from his primary asset and not do much for his overall game.

 

[wamberal]

Size helps when it is muscle. When it is flab, it does not help. Presumably he has lost flab.


It is the combination of speed (which is strength in one sense) and size that counts. Less flab, more speed, I would have thought.


He would still be pretty huge if he lost a further few kilos. He was too fat.
