Bulldogs 3, 2, 1

[Captain Apollo]

Well for some reason none of us has posted a thread for our 2019 Round 14 game at the SCG against the Canterbury Bulldogs, so I thought I should belatedly start one.

My points for the game -

3 points: Joseph Manu. Dynamic playing fullback for a rested James Tedesco. 2 tries, 1 try assist, 20 runs for 250 metres. Pure class.
2 points; Sio Siua Taukeiaho. Does this guy ever stop? Another powerhouse display up the middle making 16 runs for 18- metres and 28 tackles.
1 point; Boyd Cordner. A real captain's knock. Charged up the guts all game and cleaned up when needed defensively.

3. Joey Manu. He looked like RTS to me. Get him more ball, asap!
2. Boyd Cordner. A brilliant captain's knock. Brutal in defence all game to lay down the law about what was expected.
1. Nat Butcher. Boy has he come along nicely this year. He's a star in the making and I think he's a certainty in our team now and will even begin to pressure Liu and Rads long term for the starting lock role.

3 Manu - hopefully this game and the kiwis game has woken him up because he has been a pedestrian the rest of the season TBH
2 - cords - What a man
1 - butcher

Only 3 more origin affected rounds to go. Hopefully we can get 2 wins.
