3 - Barnett - with AFB playing less minutes than usual after getting hurt, Barnett took on the role of pack leader and owned it
2 - Ale - best game he's had, imo. I semi-bagged him during the week but he played really well, against a large pack, too
1 - Berry - looks like he's having the breakout year i hoped he would
HMs - DWZ, Tuapiki, Jazz (when he controls his aggro he's pretty useful),
Hope AFB is okay. Much less potent when he came back on, imo, possibly due to that injury
SJ played well, as usual, even if he didn't take the line on
I thought Metcalf was okay. I think he was expecting Montoya to cut inside, though should still have taken the tackle when he realized that wasn't happening. But he involved himself more in the second half and that might've ended up being the difference
RTS still making crucial errors once or twice a game but is also looking more and more comfortable each week
Lussick did his job (he ran once from dummy half, btw, but only because Capewell overran him)
Capewell still playing through injury, i think, and did spend quite a bit of the game at centre. Ran an awesome line for AFB's try but also still looks like he's too early a lot of the time. Had real trouble handling Timoko
CHT looks really good at dummy half, imo, even with his mixup with Bunty. Love his defence, as well. Absolutely garbage bunker call that went against him, too.
Thought Ford played well, actually. I can understand why he didn't pass to Metcalf as Metcalf was already almost ahead of him. Thought the penalties and errors called against him were rough.
Thought the ref was awful, both ways. We had him in the Dolphins trial, too, and I remember thinking he was pretty poor in that, too. Bunker was also pretty ordinary.
