Well played again, young Hayze Perham.
Not a winger, he is a half/fullback & playing against the premiers who targeted him with his height & weight all night.
Perfect utility to be on the bench to cover any backline injuries.... unless you think JA could of played wing tonight?

I like how he adjusted his kick returns in the second half and managed to find the turf more often than most to avoid being rag-dolled backwards
Yeah I really liked how he put his body on the line for the team. Not afraid to hit it up after getting smashed almost every tackle - that takes guts and he deserves kudos for that. Well done Perham.
Yep agree, Bert.
Perham was our weakest link tonight, and that's not a shot at him, as you said he's not a winger, he's not overly tall, only played a handful of NRL games & came up against Crichton & To'o and did his job. Looked nervous early but fought back into the game well.
Brave game from him.
Agree NOS, Hayze has courageous tonight, targeted all night - can't wait to get Sivo and Waqa back.
Missing them arent we, Mick. Especially kick returns out of our end.
Just makes this win all the more impressive!
Great observation mate, wing is such a specialist position these days, and such great effort from Hayze when you have never played in that position before.
He was our weakest link, through no fault of his own. He's too small to play wing. But he never dropped his head and played well
Perham was rag-dolled nearly everytime he took a hit-up. He's not a winger and he struggled alot, but kudos to his hard-work and effort.
I hope he stays on the bench as a utility. Offers more than JA. Can even play 5/8 if BA wants to move Dylan Brown to centres again. Let's hope not though..
Every single hit up he put his body on the line. Can't ask for anymore than that for a kid playing out of position. BA said he picks the best 17 players and then works out their positions- is the "experiment" officially over now? or could JA slotted on the wing tonight if needed?
Any whoooo. What a great win!!!! Awesome way to roll into a weekend, couldn't give a flying fuck about any other games or results now.
I would without any doubt go with Perham but wasn't he out injured anyway, so initially not an option
