3,2,1

Been a while since we have been able to do this 

3 - Moses >  Jeez we missed him

2 - Gutho > Captains knock

1- Hands > was dong everything needed of him. Crisp and quick service. Led the line speed. Cleaned up tackled. Strong first contact. He had a big job because we were getting rolled at times and our big boys were struggling. He had to do all the clean up himself when we normally have Hopgood to help in this. My only concern is if he can do this for a full NRL season. I think there should be games we carry MA on the bench to gives Hands a break. Hands work at DH is tremendous given his games at cup this year have been in the halves.

    • Would like to see Barret tinker with the dummy half role. Give Hands a breather, Gutho to hooker and Blaize to fullback when the defence is tiring at the back end of games.

      Sivo needs to be told he must do double digit hit ups every game. Sitting out there on the wing catching a cold is not what he is paid $550K to do. There's more to being a good winger than catching the final pass and falling over the try line. 

      • He didn't fall over the try line for his second try. His hit ups last 2 matches have been fine. He made 160 metres vs bunnies haven't seen last nights stat 

  • Moses 

    guth

    hands

    special mention simmo, joe O and carty

  • I thought junior finally looked interested in playing for the first time in a while. Made some good tackles where he would usually just be too slow. 
    Moses 3

    guth 2

    hands or Paulo 1

  • Hows Gallens form. Wouldnt pay a million for Moses he said in commentary, farkin junkie peptide puncher

    Anyway, 3 Moses

    2 Hands

    1 Gutho

  • 100% agree EA.

    Ofahengaue had a blinder at lock.

    Our backs had their best game so far.

    Lane was good.

    All round great team effort. 

    • I am happy you and Eels 95 have recognised Joe O. He has been great.

  • Can't argue with the 3 picks. Some honourable mentions though,

    Kelma - since starting he looks so much more dangerous.  Just needs to hold the pill like he did today. 

     

    Penisini-  absolute beast with the ball and the silky flick. 2 great sliding defensive reads.

     

    Joffa - he's probably been our moat consistent forward this year.  Goes under the radar. Doesn't miss tackles and makes his metres.

  • Super impressed at how both Moses and Gutho came back tonight. Honestly thought they'd be rusty, but absolutely great game from both of them.

    Hands makes a huge difference out of DH. Everyone other than BA could see Lussick was not working out. I agree, MA needs to be on the bench. I think Blaize was just there for insurance in case Gutho went down. MA should be debuted against the Dogs next week.

    • Agree Semi & EA.

      As good as Hands was, I just don't think we as a team suit an 80min hooker. We have big middle forwards and obviously have had big ruck issues defensively when fatigued, imo we need to keep our dummy half as fresh as possible to negate that to some degree.

"Sort of, but also i think it is fair to give him another season to see how his body holds up. Being that size and playing regular starting footy at Prop can do a lot to a 21 year old. One more season where he only gets 12-15 games, then yeah."

"Til 2030 at least. Him and Leniu are a nice counter balance in that Leniu is that high energy mad man, Tuivaiti is the bigger working middle who can pump out 50-55+mins and make over 30 tackles with 10+ more runs. I felt Tuivaiti was underwhelming…"

"The only reason people are suggesting moving Williams is due to Su'A, obviously, taking one edge spot next to Moses. Then you have Kautoga on the left with Luai where he is comfortable. 
Can Kautoga be an impact forward? Sure i guess. Though i would…"
