Just got home after quaffing a kg of prawns - I sat next to some Newcar$ehole bloke and we surreptitiously blew smoke each other’s butts until Taylor kicked his field goal ... then this dodo spat his dummy, ditched his missus who was in full on Titans paraphernalia and sooked off home. Says it all ... took the family for Mexican and I’m on a promise ... don’t expect too much of an analysis from me ... woo hoo!!

Great story...condolences to his Mrs for having a Hubby that doesn’t love the Beautiful Little City that he no doubt lives in.
 
Poor lady. Love her for her passion for the Titans, but that'd be hard to live with.

Glad to hear you were at the game mate and you got a win you deserve.
 
Yet another outstanding game from Jai Arrow he led the team in running metres with 156 metres and in tackles with 38 missing just one

Brimson FB

I'm with you as well Bods. Everyone seems to forget how it was great having two genuine halves that were linking up at the start of the season. Elgey was dealt a crap hand with the forwards under performing and Cartwright defending on his side. Only change I'd make is putting Ash at 6 an Elgey at 7.
 
After 2 games Brimson and LG are poles apart. Ash has only started running since Brimson has been outside him. Not a chance Brennan will change that.
Add to that Brimson can tackle.

I have nothing against LG but I think it may be tough from here on in for him.

Great spirit and titans played for each other scrambled defence was good,but to win a game playing 20 minutes with only 12 on the park great effort

That was 20 consectutive minutes of a 40 minute half. Pretty impressive to boot!

All those in love with AJ
He’s going to be a superstar FB not 5/8.
Those who have watched him closely at under 20 and QCup level in both positions I’m sure will agree.

I’m with you as well Bods. But who are we (not literally, I mean us lounge chair folk). I love LG, maybe I am watching through rose coloured glasses but Brimson FB LG 7 and Ash 6. Ash is a great player but I don’t think he has the smarts like LG. Unfortunately it is too late for LG this year as we are trying to salvage so the current 6 and 7 will stay. That means LG stays for less money and bides his time or he moves on. I feel the latter.

yeah he tried, didn't really have to defend though.

Thinking he might have worked on his defence a bit this week though, he was drilling it heaps before the game started and by the sidelines for fair part of that game before he went on. Hopefully we'll see an improvement on that soon
 
A good gutsy effort tonight that was worthy of the win. Enjoyed the don't argue from B. Lee that see him send it out to the Don to go over for the try. I can't recall the last time we had a Centre that had that in him.

All I wish for now is the Lads to stay out of the Clubs tonight, that would see someone mess up and give Badel some **** to publish in Mondays paper. Stay reasonably sober, Lads.

Been to the two previous offerings of gAyFL in Shanghai and they were both painfully embarrassing con jobs on how to pretend you’re a sport when you’re nothing more than a bunch of lanky lairs prancing around in Village People-esque outfits. The number of suits strutting around drowning in their own importance was dreadful. I spoke at a corporate lunch last year for the visitors et al and when I was asked ‘which team I supported’ I proudly said the Titans.

I bumped in to a couple of the boys at the Garden Bar at the Casino last night.
Let’s just say one was celebrating a little more than the other, but they seemed to behaving just fine,

Good to get a win. Hopefully we can continue to build and put a good showing in against the Roosters.

I’m all for players celebrating after a win and going straight home after a loss.
I know they want to manage the players for recovery etc BUT the motivation factor of being able to feel good and enjoy a win I think is surely much healthier in getting them up for each game.

Absolutely, I agree. It’s just a shame though that any minor indiscretions become news headlines.
 
@Bodsie ... 2010 Brisbane Lions played Melbourne Demons at the same ground ... mainly reserve graders and was rubbish.

Mates have posted pics of yesterday’s game and same old stuff, empty stands, no Chinese apart from vips and about 5,000 Port supporters flown in on packages.

i'm one of the LG followers who can see his prospects falling sadly, but the flame hasn't totally died. Brennan had some nice things to say about his form in q cup or that he is in form there.

Without wishing anyone any harm, i wonder if in about 6 weeks time, once AJ is even more established and LG is on hot form for Tweed an injury to Gordon for a month or so gives us the chance to move AJ to fb and bring Kane in?

I think Carty has done his dash at 6, and we don't really have any FB cover ( if someone says TRD or Sami i'll vomit ).

That could give us a peek, maybe the last peek, at really seeing if Kane can make it in our side, and a look at AJ at FB. Our BEST games this year Kane has been a big part of, and he offers a lot more than AJ in attack.

AJ brings straight hard running, and committed defence, compared to Kane's ball play and vision.

I think we looked best this year when Kane and Ash have moved the ball together, but i realise that Kane has a stink and he needs to work it off.

Garth will get his biggest tick of approval from me if he can show that he can not only improve players, but also coach players back into form ( Koni, Kane, Carty etc ) and not just rule a line through them and mark as too difficult
