Anyone up for some positive feedback to fill in time . . . may have been done before but wtf

Mitch Aubusson taking the field has a more profound difference than most people imagine imo, he's one of many that inspire a heightened response from team mates that goes unnoticed in media agenda

From my team's point of view, Ah Mau has made a big difference to a Dragons pack considered soft.

Former player but Michael Robertson has to be one of the most underrated players in recent history.

Scott Bolton massively underrated
Or maybe that should be unnoticed
Consistently great for a few seasons now

Someone like james Maloney is underrated in my opinion. I think he has been the key player in the roosters success over the last 3 seasons, but a lot of commentators and fans place his contribution under the likes of Pearce, Friend, sbw, rts, jwh, Cordner.

Every time Bolton has been off contract I've wanted the tigers to make a play for him. Would be starting in most teams. Very good first grader.

lol that bloke from my team

Well this is one occasion where that can be understood. We see these kind of players every week, we know the importance of that player to our team and his absence is only noticed by fans of our team and we often wonder how fans of other teams don't see this undervalued player in the same light. So on this occasion 'that guy from my team' is perfectly applicable.

Rhyno answers 'that guy from my team' to every single question ever posed on LU. So predictable you could set your watch to it.

Totally agree. He very rarely gets dominated by defences, since he moved to the front row roll a few years ago, his game has really blossomed. When he was a little wider I don't think he was as effective. I'd actually have him start games over Tamou and then bring the statue on when the opposition are a little more tired.

Asiata is another one for us. He has genuine ball skills for a bigger man, I'd have him in the halves during origin when morgan and JT are away for origin. I wouldn't swap these 2 for anyone else in the comp coming off our bench.
