I actually thought musgrove was quite disappointing tonight. He is supposed to be a hard runner but his running was really soft especially in the opening of the game. I'm sure he will improve on that next week and come back just as good as he usually is.
Clark absolutely smashed it tonight. He 100% deserves starting prop next game. Really paid Madge back for the faith that he showed in him. He has ball playing skills too which is unique for a prop.
Sam Burgess is always good. He ran hard when we needed him to. George was great off the bench I would like to see him come off the bench more often than start.
Sutton and turner both stepped up from last week as well. Turner rallied up 33 tackles tonight! Also made some very nice runs.
I don't know what everyone else thinks but I think Rochow has been a good recruit for us. He takes a few hit ups and makes a lot of meters for the limited time he gets.
Really can't fault anyone tonight I'm just hoping Goodwin and musgrove can improve, which I know they will. Goodwin should have been moved to the middle of the pitch after that terrible kick off to defend those 6 tackles himself.
Souths til I die good to hear your views.
Correct re Musgrove at the start. He was poor as Madge said at the press conference. He has to get better at this. His second stint was very good.
Clark has to continue with the ball playing too. Just as long as Clark doesn't get more than 25-30mins a game. He made the 58m. A little more would have been good. But yes he was good. Only negative was he got pushed back a bit!!!!!
Rochow reminds me of Lowe.
I actually wanted Turner to get more involved in the first half. He misread the Manly second try too with poor defence. Turner missed tackles last week too in the second row that led to tries against us. I hope he fixes this up. He was definitely better today though.
I was really impressed with Sutto.
Yes that was a bad mistake from Bryson but he did do a lot of shit work. 11 for 109m. 4th highest metre gainer in the side last week and 5th highest metre gainer in the side this week. His combo with Jennings will get better, it takes time!!!!
I also wish Hunt would stop knocking on coming out of trouble. He put us under severe pressure just before half time.
