Yank Ball. He's not scoring, he's one move from a red card and he's obviously frustrated at not scoring this season.

saying Sandoval isnt great after 2.5 games is really not the smartest. Davilla had similar and he left with the GOAT tag for us, in one season.
Davila had one bad  game (his first)

Difference is, Sandoval likely only here for half a season so needs to contribute straight away

well he's on loan till the end of the season, with an option for us to sign if we want. For mine, whilst he's not set the worl alight yet he has done enough to say he's worth it.
I think he's more a Ball than a Davila which is fine, as long as Piscopo fires

I hope the NRL scouts aren't watching or David Ball might be off elsewhere after that tackle.

payne has really got to get closer to Folami there, he literally ran away from him as he came forward for that shot.

Great save Oli! But FFS can we shut down Folami and not back off him in the box!

Is there anyone here who would feel more confident with Woud in goal for the All Whites than Sail?

We're getting pretty done by Folami this last 15

I would put Paulsen ahead of Woud any day.

Didn't mean to derail the thread. Anyway... let's hope Danny Hay isn't the only person in the country who rates Woud higher.

I don't think this has ever been our problem? We've been good with that since Talay came in. Problem is a lack of cutting edge sometimes and tiring at the end of games/letting the floodgates open.

Victree turning the screws a little bit now. Need to keep our heads here. 

Think Uffie needs to go to the bench a bit sooner than he has been doing these past few games, few boys looking a bit spent out there now.

It's been a bit scrappy but fairly balanced now. Victory have come out to win in this second half.

The problem we have is that the drop off to the bench is huge. We don't have a Rojas to bring on.

Also anyone here still think McGarry is better than Sutton? Sutton is one of our best players these days imo

MV Bring on Rojas, D'Agostino and Brimmer - all players who would start for us. That's the difference. That's what we're fighting against.

Very unselfish play from Ball. Hopefully Piscopo can pay him back at some point!
