"I think in a perfect world if everyone was fully fit, Russell wouldn't get any game time. I was expecting that with Lomax coming to the club it would spell the end of him but it hasn't turned out to be the case."
"I have never truly understood the idea of never kicking on the forth when camped in your own red zone. Kick on the 4th and better chance of pushing them back with only the Fullback collecting it."
"I like Penisini but if he can't add passing to his game he needs to go."
"It is hard for our forwards as Moretti i reckon has earned a start over Williams but he adds impact also. Though Samrani has beaten Guymer so that should be a simple switch. Unless Ryles bites the bullet and simplifies Hopgood's role by playing him…"

Completing 35 out of 37 sets will win most games. There's no sting or aggression in our defence and that's one of the big reasons they didn't make mistakes. We need some big powerful forwards asap. Enter Trey Mooney
Agree totally.
Plus no forward made over 100 metres I believe, not counting Samrani.
We lost our mojo when Bailey went off injured and the last ring of interchanges came on.
Guymer, Hopgood and Williams did not add much tonight.
Many in our current roster does not have enough experience and stamina in playing FG games. Our so called 'veteran' forwards are no better than our rookies. Hopefully MON will have a sudden miracle and recruit the right players. We, the fans, are in for many heartaches this year. Maybe next year things will change.
PS: Maybe we can punt Hopgood since we now have Dylan Walker as 13. Hopgood again had his usual error and penalty tonight. He is a changed player for the worse after his origin injury.
For some time now there has been significant talk about deficiencies in our forwards - agree but over the last 2 rounds i can see the importance of quality centres and we are struggling big time in that regard. Neither Russell or Penisini have speed, evasive running skills, they run hard at the defender not the gap and certainly lack the vision to link up to play 2nd hand phase off a Gidley flick or some imaginative pass (like you see edwards do regularly at Penrith with To'o). To compound this problem they are both passive in the tackle taking an eternity to get up and play it quickly for some flow on play (Russell is a pussey in this area - surely to god he can watch simmonson to see what a bit of urgency brings to the game) . Definitely need another fast centre to match Lomax as i would have Penisini on the wing with jac and lomax in the centres and Russell in Reserves
WE DESERVE THE SPOON.
SUCH A POOR TEAM..
Can’t take any positives from that one.
Addo-Carr finished the match at least 3 tries short if only he got some quiality ball
