Innholdsfortegnelse for 2019 - Round 4 i Big League Weekly Edition

ROOSTERS superstar Latrell Mitchell has declared he wants to be a full-time five-eighth and sees his future in the halves. While covering for injured playmaker Cooper Cronk over the past two weeks, the representative centre has realised he wants to make the transition into the halves over the coming years. “I’d definitely like to play there in the future,” Mitchell told Big League. “Looking at my career over the next couple of years, learning the five-eighth position and playing there is going to be a big part of it going forward.” Shifting between the centres and five-eighth hasn’t been uncommon in the past, with several stars including the likes of Brad Fittler, Laurie Daley and Greg Inglis making the transition. The 21-year-old has become one of the premier centres in…

IF you’ve paid close attention to Kyle Turner in 2019, you’ll have noticed something different about the Coonabarabran Unicorns junior. Turner has played the past two NRL games without his iconic neck brace, and he’s confident he’ll never have to again after several challenging seasons following a serious injury suffered in the 2015 All Stars match. While he was able to play without the brace at times throughout 2018, the hardworking edge forward hopes he can officially remove it from his match-day wardrobe. “The physios and I decided that I was better off without it, so I decided to have a crack. I played pretty well, so I stuck with it,” he told Big League. While Turner is thankful for the surety the brace provided him, he admits he’s happy…

You got the opportunity to explore Europe when you went over to England for the World Club Challenge Have you been before? Yeah I went with Australian Schoolboys when I was 18. We went to Europe, Wales and France. I don’t remember much from back then, so it was a pretty cool experience to go back and see all the sights and get around. What did you do over there when you weren’t training? When we first landed we wanted to do something together so we decided to stay awake because everyone was jet-lagged. We went and saw the Eiffel Tower and had a nice dinner in France, but it was raining and we were with 30 boys so it wasn’t very romantic. We spent a day at the War…

I came off the field early against the Bulldogs with a hamstring injury. It’s not great at the moment – no injury ever is – I’ll be out for two to four weeks. It’s not long, but it came just as I started to feel good. I was feeling really fit after a big pre-season and excited about the direction our team was taking, so it’s frustrating. But at the same time, I’d probably be far more shattered if it was later in the season. At least now I can get on top of it and I don’t have to rush back – I can make sure that I’m 100 per cent first. Josh Reynolds will fill my position and that’s one of the beauties of having Josh at the…

LOTTOLAND has copped a bad rap in recent weeks in light of Brett Morris’ knee injury, and while some are privately concerned about the quality of the playing surface, Sea Eagles prop Kelepi Tanginoa would love the chance to run out onto his home ground again this weekend. If you rewind 12 months – almost to the day – Tanginoa was in a world of hurt after suffering what he thought was a season-ending knee injury against the Raiders. It was a cruel blow for a young man who had dominated in the early rounds in his bid to earn a contract extension that would help support his young family. “That was one of the darkest points in my life,” Tanginoa tells Big League. “I had a one-year deal, and…

IT’S only taken three rounds, but all eyes are on the NRL ladder as powerhouses falter and new challengers emerge. Tipping has been nightmarish and form lines have gone out the window as we close out the opening month of the season, but as we approach Foxtel’s Game of Thrones Round, it’s important we embrace the chaos when the Knights take on the Dragons this Sunday for the Alex McKinnon Cup. As Littlefinger once said: “Chaos isn’t a pit; chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. Some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse.” Newcastle can return to the top eight with a win, and they’ve called on their own Knight King in Kalyn…

Form: The Warriors have been a disappointment over the past fortnight, conceding 80 points in consecutive losses to Wests Tigers and Manly. They were effectively out of the contest by half-time in Christchurch. The Titans played with far greater enterprise against South Sydney and matched one of the premiership’s top contenders try-for-try before going down 28-20. They have been hamstrung by the loss of both first-choice halves over the opening rounds, however the returns of Ash Taylor and Tyrone Roberts should provide them with a shot of confidence. History: The Titans were undefeated in six consecutive clashes with the Warriors between 2008 and 2010 but the New Zealand outfit has been almost totally dominant for almost a decade. In 16 encounters since 2011, the Warriors have won 14 and they’ve…

Form: It’s taken only a fortnight for the Cowboys’ early optimism to disappear following consecutive hidings from the Broncos and Sharks. The loss of Jason Taumalolo in the early stages of the Brisbane clash was a bitter blow but there was an expectation that the presence of leading representative forwards Josh McGuire, Matt Scott, Jordan McLean, Coen Hess and Gavin Cooper would soften the blow. Canberra have won plenty of new admirers, despite their Round 2 loss to the Storm. Their four English forwards led the charge against the Knights, while Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad was a revelation at fullback. History: The Raiders ended a decade of misery when they overpowered a Johnathan Thurston-led Cowboys team 18-8 at 1300SMILES Stadium in Round 8 last season. The Cowboys had defeated the Raiders in…

Form: Knights coach Nathan Brown wasn’t prepared to wait long on his team’s stuttering attack before switching Kalyn Ponga to fullback and the move is expected to have a positive effect against the Dragons. Newcastle have managed only two tries in each of their three games but Ponga’s move should lead to greater scoring opportunities. The Dragons took a giant step forward with their display against the Broncos but they might have also taken two steps back through the loss of Gareth Widdop. At least it has solved a selection dilemma for coach Paul McGregor. History: Few opposition teams have caused as much grief for the Knights over the past 20 years as the Dragons, especially in the Hunter, where the Knights have won just four out of 20 encounters.…

IT was another strong weekend for the Storm feeder clubs, with the Easts Tigers and Sunshine Coast Falcons maintaining their perfect starts to the season in a round that saw six of the seven home teams claim victory. The Tigers were far too strong for the Hunters after opening up a 22-4 half-time lead, while the Falcons fought back from a slow start to cruise past the Devils on the back of Justin Olam’s second-half double. Dolphin Stadium threatened to erupt on Saturday night when Bryce Donovan slotted a late field goal to record their first win of the season with a one-point win over the Magpies. The locals will be hoping that’s the kick-start the defending premiers need to get their season going. That leaves PNG as the only…

A WEEK is a long time in rugby league. This time last week, I was heatedly discussing how even though I thought the Bulldogs would struggle this year, I never imagined they would be performing so poorly and couldn’t see a way out for them. This time last week, Ben Hunt wrote in his column that Dragons fans should show some patience while their spine got it together. This time last week, our very own Martin Gabor was preparing to go on the Big League podcast with his fearless prediction that the Warriors would win by 40+. I’m not here to claim that the Bulldogs, Dragons and Sea Eagles have catapulted to premiership favouritism, but they shocked the hell out of me in Round 3! When you talk about quality,…

THE Cowboys look like they are struggling with the absence of powerhouse Jason Taumalolo, but back-rower Gavin Cooper said there’s another big man who is missed. “One I think we’re missing is Scott Bolton – just the way he defends around the middle of the ruck and tidies things up – he does a lot of the work that goes unnoticed,” Cooper told Big League. “We’ve all let the team down in some regard and [Bolton] will be able to fix some things up.” Taumalolo isn’t expected back until Round 9 at the earliest due to a knee injury and Bolton will return in Round 6 after serving a suspension. The pair would have left a gaping hole in the forward pack if it wasn’t for new recruit Josh McGuire,…

8. Phil Gould Long-serving Englishman Mick Stephenson’s retirement early in 1978 saw 20-year-old back-rower Phil Gould installed as Penrith captain – in just his second run-on game in first grade. He relinquished the role to veteran Gary Pethybridge the following season, but it was an illustration of the football nous that led to Gould becoming one of the great coaches after his 104-game career ended. At 30, ‘Gus’ became the youngest non-playing coach to win a premiership, steering Canterbury to grand final glory at his first attempt in 1988. 7. Laurie Daley Bradley Clyde was touted as the next NSW skipper after touring Papua New Guinea in 1991 as Australia’s vice-captain at just 21 years of age. But when the Canberra lock declined the role, the Blues opted for a…

LOOK away, rival fans and anyone else who thought the Storm dynasty was about to end, because despite losing a stack of stars in recent years, Melbourne look as strong as ever in 2019. What started as a ‘Big Four’ with Cameron Smith, Cooper Cronk, Billy Slater and Greg Inglis whittled down to a ‘Big Three’ when the latter was forced out due to the 2010 salary cap crisis. Cronk was the next to leave the Victorian capital following the 2017 premiership, with Slater calling it quits the following season after a storied career. With Smith the lone survivor, it appeared as though the Melbourne juggernaut was about to grind to a halt. However, the men in purple are three from three and sit atop the ladder heading into Sunday’s…

YOU can say it was the wake-up call he needed. A harsh one, but necessary. In April 2018, Jackson Hastings was on the outer at Manly. Bust-ups with Daly Cherry-Evans and Trent Barrett had him forced to reserve grade, and a public altercation with Cherry-Evans was the final straw in his time at Brookvale. This came after he’d previously fallen out with the senior playing group at the Sydney Roosters in 2016. Now, he was at a crossroads. Once regarded as the one NRL’s next big things after debuting at 18 and representing Australia and NSW at junior levels, doors were suddenly closing. Hastings was faced with a choice – go to England, or wallow in reserve grade. “It was a fresh start, something I needed,” Hastings admits. “I had…

WESTS TIGERS IT’S a tough pill to swallow, being beaten by the team sitting at the bottom of the ladder, but Sunday’s loss to the Bulldogs would have stung the Wests Tigers even more after losing Benji Marshall to a hamstring injury Thankfully they have former New South Wales five-eighth Josh Reynolds waiting in the wings and it’s that type of depth that winger Robert Jennings (pictured) believes will keep them at their best. “It keeps us on our toes and keeps us sharp,” Jennings told Big League. “You could play poorly one week and your position is gone due to someone performing in reserve grade. This is a tough job – you’ve just got to perform every week.” One person who knows that performances in reserve grade don’t go…

The coach’s curse Two of the most-purchased players heading into Round 3 turned out to be two of the biggest scoring liabilities. At the Rabbitohs, Braidon Burns had his season stalled by a hamstring injury that kept him to just eight points. Hopefully he is back on the park soon, but if he’s out for four weeks or longer he’s probably a sell. Jai Arrow (29) crashed after being contained by the Bunnies in that same game, missing six tackles and failing to notch any notable attacking stats. He should be a keeper (there’s every chance he doesn’t score below 40 again this year) but it’s early-season turbulence we could live without. Cheapies cashing in There are some familiar names on the money-making list again, topped by Sharks rookie Briton…

Form: In desperate need of a reboot after a poor start to their 2019 campaign, the Panthers will be counting on this much-anticipated showdown with the Wests Tigers to launch them up the competition ladder. Penrith were frustrated at their inability to find a way through Melbourne’s defence in Bathurst and crashed to a 30-point defeat. Wests Tigers, meanwhile, were out-enthused by the Bulldogs, and dreams of a 3-0 start to their season were quickly dashed. History: The Panthers have had little difficulty prising apart the Tigers’ defence in recent years, compiling a series of high scores in a run of six wins from the past seven encounters. In their only meeting last year Penrith scored two tries but kept their line intact in a 16-2 victory at Panthers Stadium.…

Form: After strong performances in their opening two games, the Eels weren’t up to the challenge when the defending premiers put their foot to the floor last week. Parramatta trailed only 8-6 at half-time, but once the Roosters went to work, the Eels were unable to shut them down. The Sharks were ultra-impressive in a big win over the Cowboys in Townsville last weekend, however injuries to captain Paul Gallen and Matt Moylan could upset their rhythm. History: The Sharks have won their past five games against the Eels, leaving them one win short of their best streak against them (six wins, 1971-74). Parramatta made Cronulla work for their two victories last season, holding the Sharks to a single try in a 14-4 loss before going down by two points…

PENRITH jumped to the top of the table with a narrow two-point win over St George Illawarra as Malakai Watene-Zelezniak scored a double. The Rabbitohs echoed the club’s NRL side, maintainng their perfect record to start the year with a 28-26 win against still-winless Newtown at home. Western Suburbs suffered their first loss of 2019, going down to the Bulldogs at Campbelltown Stadium, while the Sea Eagles and Warriors shared the competition points after being locked at 18-all following a tense back-and-forth. Mounties rose to third on the ladder after belting the Knights by 24 points at Aubrey Keech Reserve. Brock Lamb landed a field goal in the final minute to give North Sydney a 21-20 victory over Wentworthville. PENRITH 26 (M Watene-Zelezniak 2, B Too, J Luai, P Pua…

NORTHERN Pride and Wynnum Manly have continued their undeafeated run in the Queensland under-20s comp, while four teams are winless. Easts Tigers laid on a massive nine-try effort to run away from Western Mustangs. Dario Takitaki, Tom Kenny and Kieran Mundine all bagged a double – and Mundine’s were in the first five minutes. Souths Logan centre Allen Rau starred, scoring a hat-trick in their second win of the season over a disappointing Redcliffe outfit. Tweed bounced back from a tough loss in Round 3 to take control early of CQ Capras. Jaman Rio had a perfect day on the boot, while the fiery match saw three players sent to the sin-bin. Elsewhere, Norths Devils narrowly avoided another draw with a three-point win over Sunshine Coast. Dylan Tavita slotted a…

JUST as experts, fans and everyone else in between had written off the Bulldogs and Dragons’ chances in 2019, they both turned in polished performances to beat the undefeated Wests Tigers and a Broncos pack oozing with talent. Bulldogs coach Dean Pay made a number of changes to his team heading into last Sunday’s match against the Tigers and it paid off. Many assumed the changes came from frustration and poor performances in the opening rounds, however Adam Elliott says that’s not the case. “From the outside it probably looked like it was a kick up the bum, but we’ve known since the start of pre-season that there was always going to be competition. Deano’s mentioned a few times – particularly to our senior leadership group – about rotating the…

MANLY believe their emphatic 46-12 win over the Warriors has provided the perfect platform to kick-start their 2019 campaign. After finishing 15th last year, the Sea Eagles were entrenched in the ‘also-ran’ basket in the eyes of experts following losses to Wests Tigers and Sydney Roosters in the first two rounds. But the eight-try romp in Christchurch has put their upcoming opponents on notice. “Everyone’s itching to get their first win. You don’t want to sit at the bottom of the ladder for too long because that microscope really zeroes in on you,” said Daly Cherry-Evans. In an exceptional team display, Tom Trbojevic was the standout after missing the opening fortnight with a hamstring injury. He recorded nine tackle-breaks, three line-breaks, two try assists and a two tries in a…

THERE has been a lot of talk surrounding expansion or relocation of teams in the NRL and, I have to be honest, this kind of chat makes me feel a little bit sick – or at least relocation does. It’s because of what happened to South Sydney when they got kicked out of the comp in 2000. We’ve seen them forced to rebuild themselves back into a premiership-winning club and that’s a credit to them, but I’d hate to see that happen again. The clubs that have been thrown around for relocation are the Sea Eagles, Sharks and my own club, Wests Tigers. I know how passionate NRL fans are and I especially know how passionate Wests Tigers fans are. The majority of our fan base is in Sydney; we…

Pacific Tests confirmed The 2019 Ox & Palm Pacific Test Invitational is heading to Leichhardt Oval on Saturday June 22 for the first time. This year’s invitational will feature the inaugural women’s match between Papua New Guinea and Fiji, along with two men’s matches (Fiji v Lebanon and Samoa v Papua New Guinea).

Head to the Titans website for more details. Elsewhere in bargains,…

PANTHERS coach Ivan Cleary will be bracing for thunderous boos when he faces his former club on Friday night. Being a Penrith home game, the reception won’t be as hostile as some Wests Tigers fans would like, but the stage is set for an intriguing clash between two clubs forming an appetising rivalry. You’re probably well aware of Cleary’s story by now, but just in case you missed it, here’s a short summary: This time last season Ivan Cleary was a proud Tiger – ‘on the bus’ and ready to lead the joint venture. But when Anthony Griffin was sacked as Penrith coach, Cleary was given an opportunity to return to the foot of the mountains and link up with his son, Nathan. Cleary firmly denied the link with his…

BORN and bred in Sydney, Lachlan Burr is the odd man in a Warriors pack crammed with New Zealand, Tongan and Samoan internationals. But after taking up residence in his third country in less than 18 months – including a season combining football with a full-time job – the 26-year-old is making the most of his NRL lifeline. “I’m loving Auckland, I’m loving it at the Warriors and I’m loving being back in first grade,” the former Canterbury and Gold Coast forward tells Big League. “I’ve still got to improve on the little things but I’m just happy to be back in the (NRL) system. “There wasn’t much of an opportunity at the Bulldogs, so when my manager wanted to pursue a deal with the Warriors, I gave him the…

FOOTY HEAD AD CHARNZE NK I COLL-LOKSTAD FROM THE RAIDERS In Canberra, Charnze Nicoll Klokstad has fit in fast – both on and off the field What did you love about footy as a kid? Before the game, my old man used to stop in at the shops and get me and my brothers a Moro bar – that’s one of my favourite memories. Are NZ lollies different to Australia? Heaps different to over here. It’s spelled M-O-R-O… it’s similar to a Mars bar. Are your parents sorry to see you move away? No, they encouraged it. They knew I was stuck behind a few great players at the Warriors, and encouraged me to make a fresh start and get away with my little family. My parents have a few…

Form: The Roosters have won two of their opening three games but their performances have yet to reach their premiership standard of 2018 and now injury to hooker Jake Friend threaten to undermine their efforts. They appeared to play well within themselves in the first half against Parramatta last week before finishing strongly, while their previous week’s effort against Manly was in complete contrast. The Broncos put their best foot forward against the Cowboys a fortnight ago but failed to back up their effort against the determined Dragons. History: The Broncos will make history this Thursday when they stride onto the Sydney Cricket Ground for the first time. Brisbane have enjoyed much success against the Roosters in Sydney but a 22-8 victory in Round 24 last year broke a six-year…

Form: It took the return of Tom Trbojevic to provide Manly with a winning spark last weekend and his combination with Daly Cherry-Evans carried the Sea Eagles to a 34-point win. Both players have dramatically raised spirits at Brookvale after back-to-back losses to open their season. The Rabbitohs saw off the Titans in a tougher contest than they may have anticipated to complete their first 3-0 start to a season since their premiership-winning year of 2014. History: Intense rivalry between these clubs was fuelled by grand final showdowns in 1951, 1968 and 1970 (all won by the Rabbitohs) and the subsequent signing by the Sea Eagles of leading South Sydney players including John O’Neill, Ray Branighan and Bob Moses. The Rabbitohs have enjoyed only brief periods of success over Manly…

Form: The Storm have been a model of teamwork in the opening rounds and have surprised no one in remaining undefeated. They’ve played with outstanding control in attack without being conservative and their defence is already ranked number one in the competition. The Bulldogs recovered superbly from heavy defeats in the opening rounds to knock over the previously undefeated Wests Tigers last Sunday and provide their fans with renewed hope. History: The Storm were on a six-game losing run against the Bulldogs until Round 1 victories at Belmore and Perth have reversed a surprising trend over the past two seasons. The Storm managed just seven tries in six-straight defeats from 2013 to 2017, but in their last meeting they ran in six tries in a 36-18 result at the new…

SOUTH Sydney played out their second draw in as many weeks while the Sharks flexed their muscles in a blockbuster round of action. The Rabbitohs looked set to claim the two competition points at home, only for the Bears to storm home with two late tries to snatch a point. Meanwhile, the Sharks piled on 40 unanswered points to trounce the Thunderbolts and maintain their perfect record. The defending premiers have conceded just six points this season and are set to take on the winless Eels on Saturday. The Bulldogs and Roosters are also unbeaten after two rounds, with the latter set to travel to Canberra in what shapes as the match of the weekend, while the second-placed ‘Dogs take on winless North Sydney Manly and Newcastle are both at…
