Feleti Mateo (The Saviour)

This guy needs his own thread. Tonight in PL Feleti Mateo set up at least 4 tries. The guy is class and is the best damn premier league player I have ever seen. His performance tonight was OUTSTANDING. If he does not get a bench spot next week with PJ Marsh out injured I have never watched a game of Rugby League.

well see is he the guy that spent time in pomie land last year with the broncos

Yes. He is a f*cking animal in attack. Sublime ball skills. As Jake once said a mixture of Dymock and Smith.

Morris did throw a nice cut out to put Grothe away for that try .... BUT I've gotta say i am generally disappointed with Johnny - last year he was great and i expected it to carry on this year - but its not really happening often enough

Maybe Feleti to 5/8 ???

Jake has been praising this guy for ages. He is rarely wrong. I will say it again I have never seen a player dominate more in PL then Mateo. Blake Green looked good, as did Wellar Hauraki. Hayne and Inu are also something special.

If Morrison and Robinson are out I'd say lock. tbh, I couldnt really tell who was who in PL they all played well. :D

Taia has to get a go next week if Robinson is out, he was great today, best forward on the field

That is why they have been tied up with contracts until at least 2009, from memory.

We all know Smithy won't change anything, he just doesn't believe in it. Stability in a team that sucks is better than changing things that don't work for him.

mate

I forwards besides Hindmarsh and Riddell are softc*cks.

We need new blood.

are our young forwards up to it? .... i genuinely don't know, thats why i am asking ppl who know more of them than me

I have been a bit disappointed with our forwards this yr (except hindy, morro and pig - and tsoulos has done well too) .... the rest can be good at times, but are patchy

are the PL guys really up to it? ..... jack afa looked like being the goods, then seemed to struggle when he got into the top grade .... are teh others the real deal?

But some people here believe Luke Burt is a star. Inu and Hayne are only 18 and they are already better then Luke Burt will ever be.

I've been saying all along, this Feleti from day one is a kid in the making. He is a natural 5/8 unlike Morris

Jack Afa had a top game in the front row. They are up to it. For christ sake they are undefeated in PL and have killed every side they have played.
