Feleti Mateo put his hand up tonight. Had a superb game. As did Reddy. Good gutsy win that should boost confidence!

Luke Burt-my favourite player ever since I started watching the game-in tandem with Feleti Mateo, saved us the game on the try and brilliant goal-kicking.....when Luke scored I was screaming my head off.
But I think what won it for us was our forward pack, who stuck in and were great throughout the whole game in defence; Hindy saved the Thaiday try that won us the game, our backrow were great, Feleti was definitely man of the match for mine (or Justin Horo), and just....everything.
Anthony Mitchell on debut did not disappoint; he was brilliant in fact, and I can definitely see him being picked for our next couple of games.
Taniela Lasalo was great, particularly in that first half, and Jonathon Wright provided good metres with his strong runs.
Our replacement and debut players were brilliant, our forwards set the platform, Kris Keating was great and Robson was solid as always.
Overall, not the best of games but definitely good signs for us.

Was a grinding win. Mateo really has been playing brilliant lately and is so damaging up the guts especially when he has support. Mitchell was impressive very sharp from dummy half and supported well for his try, I really hope we see more of him. Hayne wasn't brilliant but scored a freakish try and setup with a amazing no look cut out. Horo was brilliant they were all good except for Inu at times and Reddy also sh*ts me to tears at times.

Edit: Lasalo deserves a mention, he looked the good and was damaging.

Yeah Mateo definitely deserved recognition for one of the past couple games; against the Bulldogs he tore them to shreds the whole game with his running and passing, against the Titans he was by far the Eels best and most dangerous player, and tonight he was the deciding factor in attack.
If only he had been playing like this all year and we would have tried harder to keep him (as well as Inu), oh well, rejoice Warriors fans; you guys will definitely get your money's worth with him.
