3. Brails - organised almost everything in the middle, took their markers and A defenders completely out of the game, and gave forwards and Trindall all the time in the world
2. Woods - led the forwards, dangerous with ball in hand and made metres. I know this forum hates him cos he's not the hard running prop mould but our best 13 on the field includes him
1. Trindall / Bubba / Nikora - all huge contributions, i can't split em

I was disappointed in Tracey actually...much better than Moylan at 6 last week but was expecting a lot of him..there were a few VERY bad reads, including a huuuuuge gap behind the line on the last tackle that he passed on instead of poppin a grubber through. Thought Rudolph was great again, and I know we got slammed for ragging on his limitations last time...but him somehow missing Graham running into a giant gap on the line was pretty bad. We need to hit every one of those blatant opportunities to compete against the Top 4 in the finals (I know that's hard on him, but he needs to be able to hit that pass by the finals ).

Feefs was average and slow, but he needs to be used right. The crabbing I'm fine with if he has support players... a lot of just standing and watching him. Noticed Brailey behind him on the final bell absolutely pissed that he wouldnt play the ball. Dunno what morale is around Feefs atm but that didnt look great

I wouldn't. I'd be cautious though. Along the lines of a different conversation in a different thread we need to remember

This is the dawning of the Age of Entitlement, Age of Entitlement

Entitlement

ENTITLEMENT!!!

Anyway. Have to be aware of the bad times which come. The time when the millennials or whatever they are hit their low point and completely unravel.

I think that's already happened to be honest

That was a really poor look. Trevor Chappell like. I didn't like it either

Looked a little lost as a distributor. Been while though I suppose and would have been his first runaround with Tricky wouldn't it? Anyway, he should run!! He even reminded me of Keary in one run in the second half. The style, the speed of the mark, the ball in both hands. He's no Keary, don't get me wrong, but I think he can be a decent 6. Or 13.

I just hoped all the haters noticed that he was BUSTED and stayed on. Gutsy effort last night.

Imagine how that shit rubs off on the NRL infants

I noticed it and when he scored and had it disallowed he basically limped over line but did it

Kennedy was a walking mistake in defence. Under the bigh ball. Everything.
Once bomber told him he had the jumper to lose his game took off.
Tracey needs to know he can build his game.
Off the bench at hooker.
Starting at 6.
Id like to see what he brings after 3 weeks in that shirt for 80.

There's definitely something there...his got a great energy and skillset which we miss on our bad games. I prefer him to Moylan at 6, but Townsend for example wouldn't miss the opportunities Tracey did. I think Trindall wouldn't miss then either, he seems to have great instincts (that flick pass to Nikora for the try was all reflex).

3. Trindall - Took control of the game. Decent kicking game, looked dangerous, and awesome defence.
2. Brailey - I love this kid. Times his attack really well, and the kicking game looks great.
1. Woods - Admittedly, I'm not a big fan of his. But he made yards, added to the attack, and was able to settle the team when attack started to get lost a bit.

Agree.
Trindall is smart, cheeky and a natural footballer. The soft hands and subtle footwork were highlights. The pass for Nikora's first try didn't look like much but it was perfectly weighted which allowed Nikora to change his line to hit the hole. Of course the flick to Nikora for Talakai's try was superb.
Brailey has really grown into the role. His running game has improved dramatically. The 40/20 was quality.
Woods was smart and focused. Used the ball well. Led the pack.
