Semi Final footy at its best.

No wonder Bellamy picked him


Lumelume was actually good today..

His poor defense was probably masked by how good Russells cover defense was.

He made a decent break, though he did drop it.
He also absolutely killed an overlap which would have been a try in the first half as well by not passing it.

Apart from that he was good.

So when he wasnt bad he was good? Cool.

But were you happy with where they were picked? Cini, Russell, Talagi, Asi, Guymer weren't in the wrong spots?

Cini has started to play really well at fullback. Like I said he could easily get a gig in the UK as a fullback.

Russell wasn't excited about him playing at centre but he was great.

Talagi wasted at 6 if he is a centre option or fullback his defense also was poor. I would pick Russell at centre and Cini at fullback before him again this year.. Centre position is a spot you have to be good in defense.

Asi is a halfback leads the team around well.

Guymer defended well at 13 still would rather him develop at second row learn to his the holes instead of a battering ram in the middle..

The treatment & development of Brendan Hands continues to be ridiculous.

He cant build his craft & continuity in dummy half by not playing there.

He will be lost to the club no doubt. Meni Luke has been going well off the bench in short bursts but he will be lost as well as will the kid we got from Penrith, (is it Riley Smith?).
There is another plan which may or may not work. Fingers crossed it does. Just persevere with Lussick for the time being.
