Hon mentions Lolohea
Johnson was a vastly improved but he should be doing this (at a minimum) every week

Lolohea just put in one of the great single-game performances by a Warrior. I can't see how he misses out on 3 let alone 1 (but opinions are like ball sacs, every man should have one...and I frown upon them for women)

3- Tui. Incredible. I will concede I was completely wrong. He needs as much ball as we can get him and it has to be 1 or 6
2- Thompson. Has to be a Kiwi. Powerhouse
1- Johnson. Deserved 2 or 3 but beaten by huge efforts. Something awoke him...

Honourables to Luke, Ayshford, Lisone, Mannering, Hoffman, even Tommy I thought was direct and busy in his time on.

3. Thomson - he adds SO MUCH to that right side. By far our best backrower and we are another team when he's on the field.
2. Lolo - Looked dangerous for that first 15 in 6, and filled in well at 1. We are a better team the more he touches the ball.
1. SJ - suburb kicking to control their field position. A couple of good runs and plenty of try assists. Couldn't ask for more of him except those conversion!

-1 Kata. Sorry bro your defence has been way better this year, but was miserable this game. Rushing out of position all game. Between him and Wright it was a turnstile.

Honorable: Wright actually looked solid most of the game apart from his role in those defensive softies. Fusitua did his job well too. Luke solid at DH. Captain Hoff had a strong one too. Lisone's first 20 was brilliant. Lillyman ran hard all day and stood out as best prop for us. Ayshford finished well.

3 Johnson. His kicking game turned them around all night, that was enough for the 3, let alone the 3 brilliant try assists
2 Lolohea - wow. I can't seriously believe Jeff Robson had a spot in the spine ahead of this legend
1 Thompson. Involved in everything.

Great return I thought from David Fusitua too I thought. And as much as I thought he was a horrible signing, gee Blake Ayshford is going well. Fingers crossed RTS isn't too bad, that spine with Lolohea in it could be lethal.

3. Lolohea - last year proved we can't be a one man team, today he took charge after our superstar fullback went off injured. He's a superstar in his own right though. Let the opposition worry about him rather than who he's replacing.
2. Thompson - tough and mobile, a perfect backrower. Underrated in Sydney, which suits us fine.
1. Lillyman - once again he lined up hard with those collisions, this had to negate a much vaunted, large Bulldogs pack.

3- Lolohea. Massive all round game. I'm really hoping RTS is back soon because the SJ/Lolo pairing could turn out fortunes around.
2- Lilyman. 170+ metres, absolute machine up the middle
1- SJ. Still not running it a ton but he's taking it to the line enough to put doubt in the defenders minds and create chances and his kicking game in general play was excellent. Ordinary goalkicking but part of that was the Cake Tin I think.

Hon mentions: Thompson, Luke, Ayshford, both wingers. Kata was rocks and diamonds, he's an animal on attack but needs to stop rushing up out of the line on D.

3. Lolohea - SJ playing the direction game, Lolohea came into his own
2. Thompson - Tough choice 3 points or 2; watching him size up Morris and scare the bejayus out of him was worth admission alone...the combo with Ayshford could well turn out trumps for us.
1. Lillyman- A joy to watch tonight. Three tacklers could not move him. And fricking scything in defence. PLayers running at/near him jus stopped...suddenly

HM Johnson TL Hoffman (actually made the ref stop and listen to him)

3. Johnson - laid on 3 very nice tries, good kicking game.
2. Lolohea - looked good when chiming in and running the ball.
1. Bodene - dude has been our best buy over the last 2 seasons. Actually, longer.

Hon. mentions - Ayshford. Lillyman. A few others but those two stick out in my mind immediately.

-1 Gubbster. Sorry bro but that was ridiculous.

1. going to give it to Thomas. before the game he was probably told that he would be coming on in the forwards but after the first quater he was in the halved and didnt let the team down

3. Ayshford....thanks to him NRL teams only have one side of the park they can score trys on...that is why we are winning games.

2. Fusitua....huge assignment...did well under Ayshfords tutelage (another reason Ayshford is boss.

1. Thompson....lead the intensity in the forwards....which Allowed our fancy backs an easier ride.

3. Jonhson. Closed the game out with a controlled display of kicking.
2. Thompson. Puts to bed the fallacy that players come here and destroy their careers.
1. Lolohea. Ran and distributed well at 6. Dominated at fullback.

Honourable mentions.
Lisone. Showed some serious passion against a strong Bulldogs pack in his (too short) spell.
Ayshford. Centre play the way it should be. Not a battering ram. But forming a combination with his winger. Take note Konnie.

Really want to see fusitua get an extended run in this side, if Manu comes back it needs to be for wright.

Give Lolohea a pay rise, he deserves one and will be attracting interest very soon

1. Lillyman.

Still can't quite believe it.
How can a side change so much in a week?
Good coaching?
