    • Wouldn't mind Isaako. Nice steady Winger. Great goal kicker and is a right Winger which is the side we need. I would still try and get Taulagi from NQ. Yeah he is a left Winger but he has played right for Samoa, just feel he is the type of Winger we need.

      • Strongly disagree with Taulagi, slow as a wet week, upscaled model of Tago and he is less than Cup Standard!

        Russell is twice the player Taulagi is and for that matter, so are our out of postioned players like Twidle. Simmonsson is even better! and then you have Samrani who also seems to have added pace....not to mention height and weight defensively on the wing. Samrani remind's me of Cory Oates a forward that could not be one  because he was a better winger!

        • One thing about Samrani is that he takes his chances. He has a great strike rate and good instincts to be in the right place at the right time.

  • Decent hit out. Happy with only 6 being let in and Samrani getting a bit agro.

    • He was hit pretty high and hard when he scored so he was a bit lit about that still I reckon 

    • thats the leb in him

  • We had a decent hit out, in saying that the sharks didn't throw to much at us.

    i thought T Brown looks really good, maybe a debut this year.

    Pryke looked good, except for he's hands 

    twiddle and Lorenzo looked pretty solid as well.

    our juniors are looking better now, then they did under BA. 

    a better test for us next week against the roosters 

    • There trials not test's !! It will be a clean out for the old guns and the opportunity to tackle good players and for the young players to feel some steel.

  • Team was great. Massive amount forward depth. Backs looks like we have firmed up spots too. Honestly. I don't think we see a signing unless it's a big fish. Goal is to lock down these young guns on longer term deals for coin they are worth, ward off the bears and PNG who no doubt are looking at our depth. We will learn we missed big time on Russell. He has grown in leaps and bounds under Ryles. But can't keep them all.
