Thanks Stags, if you get the time to give us a match report, player run down, that'd be great. Only if you get the time mate.

I'll try and do one later tonight but other than Rory, polar, kleppa and cam King I thought the rest were ordinary... Our outside backs were not on their game

I'm going to bed in 2 hrs. I expect one before I say good night to Mrs A.

Just a very quick summary of some our key players in the side from yesterday's game.

Moss: didn't look comfortable back there was out of position a couple of times and seemed timid when carting the ball up, a bit of a disappointment

Tuha: plays with a lot of energy and enthusiasm, looks for work kept the Warriors defence busy

Morgs and Vai : quite games from both of them in attack although both defended well

Kelly: appeared to have suffered his acl after he scored his try, it looked very innocuous

Cornish: a slow start as his services were poor I thought but finished the game well, he seemed to focus on the left side of the field even when kell came off.

Cody: moved in at half after kell's injury and played very well, another inspiring game by the captain.

Cam King: close to best on ground, tidy work from dummy half and tackled well

Alvaro and O'Brian : both strong games against a bigger pack ran the ball hard and both had a high work rate in defence

Tanginoa: a couple of bruising runs but his handling at times let him down, not convinced that his best position is on the edge

Schulte: did a good job when he came on and scored a couple of tries but still not sure of his place in the side.

Hassan: high work rate before he came off with what appeared to be a serious injuries to his testies ( poor bloke)

Thanks mate, great wrap up.

Will be interesting to see who replaces Kelly in the halves. I would think Madden although I think Nicholls played a game in NSW Cup earlier in the year but he was listed to stat on the bench last weekend with Izzard starting.

Good to hear King continues to impress, I would like to see how he goes stepping up to NRL. Perhaps a rotation of Pritchard and King.

Great to have quality depth for a change.

What's the go with Tanginoa? In 2013 he was our best forward at 19 years of age. His explosiveness was just amazing. Then he became injured and could never seem to cement a place in first grade and was let go to the cowboys but couldn't get a first grade spot there either. What is holding him back? I noticed with interest that he was named in the wentworthville team of the week.

He might've been our most explosive forward in 2013 (and might still be) but he was far from our best. Explosiveness is only a part of what makes up a forward's quality, however it seems to be the part the fans notice most.

He ran 201m from 20 carries on the weekend.

Shows he's playing tough and fit right now.
