3-2-1 v Cowboys

[TheDMC]

Phew. That was I.N.Tense

3- Lillyman
2- Rapira
1- Vatuvei

Hon mention: Nearly all of them, but for me, stoked to see Bukuya and Johnson play well. Johnson defended hard and field kicking excellent, Bukuya was a threat on attack and defended hard.

Can't go past the two props though, and backed by Matagi, but Vatuvei was outstanding I thought.

Manu was good on attack but so so bad on D

Johnson 3
Bukuya 2
Rapira 1

3. Lillyman - he's been much maligned lately.
2. Johnson - heard the radio commentators make more than a few mentions of his 'courageous defence'.
1. Fish - for getting us off to a flying start.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Great game by all of our props in particular Raps and Lillyman. They were epic totally outshone Scott and Tamou IMO

Apart from a good pick up on a bouncing ball I don't see how you can give a point to a guy who was pretty much directly responsible for two Cowboys tries.

Listening on radio probably didn't help. Commentators make big deals about try scorers on radio.

I also zoned-out for about 20 minutes mid-game.

Still, Fish scored the two opening tries. It would have been a long night if Winterstein did.

I possibly could have gone vice versa with Lillyman and Rapira, but Lillyman seemed to IMO to have the better game

 

[Philip_Smith007]

3. Lillyman - Got us going forward and some quick play of the balls.
2. Bukuya - In a lot of tackles and tackle busts! (pity about the standard penalty)
1. Johnson - for his kicking game for 70mins of the game.

Hon Men Townsend, gave 100% effort in defence, saw a lot of guys sitting around after tackles near the start.

Hope Matulino is okay.

3. Lillyman
2. Rapira - good to see him back near his best.
1. Johnson

Much better from Townsend today, more like the Broncos trial.

[Rich102]

That start was so vital.
3. Lillyman - his best in a couple of seasons
2. Rapira - really stood up
1 Townsend - worked hard and steered the forwards well. Starting to get a bit of confidence.

Much better effort from the whole team, but way too many stupid mistakes at the end. We have them every possible opportunity to take that one from us.

So much better this week, everyone really stood up and played well. Would have been heartbreaking to lose, but shows a lot to hold on and come away with the win as well. If we can play like that consistently, we will be able to beat most teams.
