Its amazing how different our attack looks when we have a halfback who is able to walk...

Perhaps he is not a long-term option, but Feeney has earned himself a good stretch in the 7 after todays performance. Good to see Lamb bring it up a notch too.

I still think the longer term plan (assuming we are able to sign ANYONE) is Lamb at 5/8 with an experienced 7 and Feeney our utility off the bench.

Honestly though, just having playmakers able to threaten a run and give it to a big guy 2 off the ruck was huge for us; it gave the big guys a bit more space and we really got a roll on....

Is it feasible that Sione is our captain from now on? Unless we sign someone like a Graham, I can't see anyone taking it off him. He's extremely young to rely on as a captain long term. Maybe Buhrer steps in when he's healthy?

I would bloody well hope so...

And even if we did sign someone like Graham, id want Sione to hang onto the role. Id be for more keen on the old head mentoring Sione directly on how to hold himself as captain.

Sione is a longer term prospect than an old bloke who would maybe give us 2 years. Im more interested in investing directly in Sione than going for the short term choice...
