The score may have flattered us but what a great start to the season, 4/4! Let's hope the wins continue, our front row was the difference today imo, outstanding work RCG, Junior & Reed. The only changes I would make going forward is relegate Lane from the starting side & Hipgrave from the 17. Lane disappoints me, I believe he gets lazy & is a poor defender, for a large man his first up contact is rubbish. From our bench we need impact & energy & I haven't seen that from Hipgrave.

They've just given BA an ironclad excuse to flog em during the week
BA has improved out of sight with his use of the bench although I did not agree with bringing stone on for rcg, hipgrave would have been a better choice imo, but hey, who am I.
Lane is a passenger
Dylan brown what to say about him. Still learning ? He should have PhD by now.
rcg was outstanding. Gutho unusually had a bad game. Saying that. Very happy with the win
Couldn't agree more. Yes Brown...love the kids composure but very much work in progress. My gut feel is he will be a very special player in years to come. Bring on the drags!
I thought Lane was good tonight, especially in the first half. The second half he was used mostly as a decoy.
DB is 20, he's still only played 35 games.
I think Lane has improved every week since his shocker against Brisbane and I hope that before long he and D Brown will rebuild the great combination they had in attack in 2019.
Nothing wrong but I'd be looking to others who may provide more, I'm looking forward to seeing what Cartwright brings.
what is the fascination with cartwright???? did you watch the CC game yesterday?
First half did not much, second half started to run a bit but still didnt look like a bloke who should be demanding a spot in our match day 17 - yet.
Why is everyone obsessed with changing a winning pack - injuries aside, everyone is doing their job abd doing it well.
He's also a renowned terrible defender and arm grabber. I wouldn't be changing the side to bring him in. Defence is a fine tuned thing you don't want to change much once you have it working.
I agree, didn't see anything special from him yesterday, still grab tackles, maybe used his shoulder and went low a couple of times.
Got some offloaded happening, but nothing silky, and didn't put anyone through Few more games in Reggies I think.
