  i think i said after the dragons game something along the lines of 'maybe we can trade him in for a new pair of boots for jarryd'.. well he shut me up alright, this kid can step in for us anytime... good on DA for persisting with him

  He has made such massive improvements every game since that 37-0 drubbing.

  Last week I was really nervous everytime he got the ball.. now I'm sort of hoping Inus hamstring flares up again LOL :-)
  He played great.. along with the rest ofthe team!

  Brilliant, yes... but how good was Lowrie. He was everywhere. Best player on the field for mine. Well, him and Fui.

  Yeah I need to put my hand up. I was quick to bag Jono. Whilst Jono did play well 2nite, he was only marking a spastic in Walker & Walker nearly got him on a few occasions on his outside. How would've Delaney gone? How will Josh Morris go next week?
  
  I still think Jono has a defence reading problem where he moves up on the players inside too quickly which allows them a shot on his outside. It is the adjusting period that Jono needs to adapt too for first grade. But look at the improvement. Gee Jono smashed some guys 2nite, put a great ball on for (I think) Burt & to cap it off made Bailey look like a frontrower & not a 5/8 to score what I'm sure will be a huge confidence builder try. Well done
  
  Man what a challenge. Comes in first grade R26 against Saints marking winger of the year in Morris wiith only 2 or 3 games expreince previously with us having won 7 straight. Gets dusted up, Gets smashed in the media and on fan sites, comes back the following week plays a lot better at centre and comes back again last nite and him rating a 7/10 points for the game.
  
  This kid has potential. Well done Jono & well done Ando for keeping with him.
  
  I think I need to have a little more faith & not be so quick to judge.
  
  In saying all of that I hope Inu is back for next week.

  This post took the words right out of my mouth.
  
  When Jono scored last night, I said 'now that truly warms my heart'. What a courageous player! He was brought in, last minute for Kris Inu 2 weeks ago and had a terrible night. For him to come out show the improvement which he has shown, take it to Walker last night and get a try, was wonderful.
  
  He needs to take a bow!
