Oh sorry I thought you meant goal kicking. My mistake.

I have a fixation on our general kicking game after watching the "good" teams all being able to kick their way out of trouble.
Right from the moment he was signed I had the feeling Carter Gordon was signed to start as a centre. A skilful centre who can set up play.

The best NRL teams at defending kick returns - The Rugby League Eye Test
A few weeks ago friend of the site Jason Oliver wrote a tremendous piece for Rugby League Writers on the trend of teams not contesting bombs. It’s a fantastic insight into a part of the game that has become somewhat boring of late, but we all know how risk adverse football coaches are these...

The Short Dropout: Why don't NRL teams compete on a bomb?
I always have a particular match, trend, team, or player in mind to focus on heading into each round of the NRL season. .

Couple of interesting articles on it if you haven't read and seeing our guys and how high they are had me surprised haha, The best thing Lofi has done in his career was the Sharks game with the second tactic.

Such a random signing. 5% chance of working out IMO.

I reckon you could add a "0" to that Birdy ... he must have some talent and desire, which at least puts him in with a chance. Will be a very interesting watch indeed.

Wow. This is so left field for me and so uncertain and so very exciting. An experiment that has the eyes of the rugby codes on it.

Not sure he’s a centre, but regardless, I’ll have my lotion and tissues at the ready.

Mate he's fast with a massive frame, an extremely good athlete, tenacious competitor, super good kicker of the footy, high footy IQ in similar sport and is pretty young to boot.
Maybe he's over qualified

It’s on Kayo now (Thanks HS for letting me know). Trying to watch as much as I can before heading to the game.

This field looks like an injury waiting to happen
I admire what they’re trying to do with country round but I don’t like it at all. Way too much risk playing on rubbish facilities

Low quality game this one
Tweed should put 50 on this Clydesdales side. They’re terrible

He’s only really had yardage carries but he’s got a heavier carry than I’d have thought for a Union 10

Just threw the last pass for Tony Francis to score. He’s got a hot looking pass on him
Positioned himself well in shape there too
