His effort areas were spot on last night. One thing I picked up on was how often he would be pulling up the last defender off the ruck and positioning them at marker. Lots of pointing and talking in defence. His game fitness has doubled since the start of the year. Really happy with the emu.
3- Hopgood With a pack that lacked experience, losing a middle forward on the 10th min, Hopgood showed leadership, stepped up and played his heart out.
2- Moses without being flamboyant, managed the game well and stepped up when it counted most.
1- Brown (was a toss up between him and Simmonson) had a big impact on the game early, and consistently injected himself when we needed him to.
shout out to a Greig on getting his first try, and again posting a decent 145 run meters
"Even after his slow start to 2025, Kautoga ended up leading all our forwards in post contact metre percentage.
He made giant strides until he was grounded against Penrith.Can only see him getting stronger and making bigger inroads next year.Kautoga…"
"Yea they recon Bloomfield and Risati are better union players than league and being selected in the u17 wallabies side showed it. So easier team for them to make professionally.
However, I wouldn't be to fast saying Bloomfield wont make NRL if he…"
"EA,
Bloomfield will go RU because he wont make NRL IMO. Risati needs to knuckle down this year. Can play but I cant see him ahead of Lorenzo, Fletcher at this stage. "
