  Agreed. I thought Matto was the best forward on the park. His ball playing with such great speed and squaring the defence up just before passing was elite. He offloaded well and got so many PCM each carry with great leg speed. Papa was great and scored again soft af defence. Moses was solid. 
  I wouldn't say our attack was threatening today. We scored against very soft defence. JA in the halves just slows our attack down so much. He is no threat with his running game unlike Dylan who has proven to be a constant threat this year but shafted to centre. Hopefully we get an outside back returning next week to put Dylan back into the halves and JA to reserve grade.

      Same but I went with Mahoney for his work close to the line that set up a couple of tries.

    Embracing himself on the field in front of all the fans would have been embarrassing 😁

  I actually tipped either JP/RCG as MOM. Close enough

  Whilst Moses mostly coasted, he was the organiser of everything and he seemed to personally mark Ponga out of the game, great defensive effort from him and the whole team.....notwithstanding the disappoinment of Newcastle's overall display  we did strangle them. I liked the way we controlled the match under our terms, methodical and not leaving space to come down to the quality of the opposition.....JA is not at this level because his strenfths in the minors are playmaking and he is not capable of playmaking at this level, he offers nothing as a 5/8 and has to be left in Reserve Grade to get to a stage of filling in for Moses, if and when he is injured, otherwise he is a wasted position. Hayze Pereham is a better option to play 5/8 than JA, 7 yes 6 no.
