"Reserve graders or not, it doesn't really excuse the work rate for 50 minutes. Plenty of those reserve graders were playing for a contract."
"Big motor for a big bloke. It's the same with Tuivaiti, they both seem to keep coming with the ability to play big minutes. They'd both have to be 115kg plus. Not sure who the conditioning coach is but he's doing a good job on these young blokes."
"Almost the strongest side we could have named. Rorters have named a damn strong side so will be a good test for us. "
"Assuming he is coming back from injury the reason to play him in reserves is to build up his match fitness. Will get to play longer minutes in that match."

Exactly right Phil, glad eels fans are slowly waking up to this imposter.
On the way to getting in his ear ... B.A should tap him on the shoulder instead !
2 things
1) he has been our most consistent forward this year (and is so most years). He NEVER gets driven back, rarely misses a tackle and has the fastest play the ball of the squad.
2) he takes the multiple hit ups simply because the other soft options won’t put their hands up to have a go. That’s actually called leadership.
And then you get a blog like this criticising it!
I saw him get driven back several times against the raiders. what he NEVER does is offload or bend the line or trouble the defensive line.
But every defender knows he will never offload so tackling him is easy
I think fans a very harsh on Mannah , reminds me a lot of Ben Kennedy in the way he inspires the players around him .
Good to have you back Fong! Where you been?
