1 SBW (I know a lot of people probably didn't notice his effort, but he made over 40 tackles and ran hard all night.)

3. RTS
2. SKD
0.5. LOD
0.5. SBW

I thought that in JWH's absence, LOD was huge, as was Moa.

3. RTS. Match winning try (what a chase and put down) Was solid in D as well.
2. Moa. Popped his kneecap FFS, came back when we really needed him and didn't take a backward step.
1. BBQ. Some of the things he did in defence were unbelievable.

I'm giving my top marks to Moa for coming back on the way he did. What effect that alone had on the team is immeasurable.

2 to BBQ for his defence as well as kicking game.

1 for Sonny's tireless efforts in defence.

I'd like to give points to everybody quite frankly.

3 SKD (His defence was nothing short of superb)
2 Moa (inspirational stuff)
1 SBW (he never stopped, you can tell the players feed off him)

I would love to give points to everyone. Not one of our players hung their heads at any point, they kept turning up for each other and made the plays that mattered.

the fact there are so many varied opinions, indicates it was a true team effort.
It had to be to keep a top side like Manly to zero.

Points for everyone

1 through 17 get my vote.

Watch the game again, everybody did something special during that match.

Chook.

It's ironic that as probably the most high profile player in the game most of what he does actually goes unnoticed. If Joe Bloggs makes 16 strong hit-ups and 36 tackles in such a tough contest people would be raving. Because it's SBW (and this applies to other high profile players too) there's a willful blindness from non-fans about anything he does which isn't spectacular.

SBW two best games this year were against Manly - Brookvale and Saturday night - defended hard (especially in cover defence) took carries deep in our end and still ran for 120m and 116m making 30 odd tackles at Brookvale and 41 on saturday. I don't know how you have a "quiet" game making 30+ tackles and 120m but that's the LU opinion of him.

Media/opposition fans only give him credit when he makes 10 offloads and 6 tackle breaks.

SBWs defence was some of the best I've ever seen.

The amount of 1-1 ball and all tackles he made was awesome. And he punched through the line on every hit up.

He was fantastic. Hence why I gave him the 3 points.
