A good win, but ruck defence is still a concern. All 3 games, it was apparent, and it's an area we need to tighten up. Ah Mau and Hunt have contributed positively but their footspeed is a concern and smart Hookers and dummy half runners have taken advantage. Will become more of a concern when we come up against the good teams.
Think Stockwell needs to start and De Belin and Thompson to play more minutes. I love Quinlan, but we're missing Dugans kick returns. Not sure he's the answer as a utility player. Based on the 3 games so far, my team would be:
Dugan
Morris
Mata'utia
Beale
Nightingale
Widdop
Witt
Merrin
Creagh
De Belin
Frizzell
Rein
Stockwell
Cooper
Ah Mau
Thompson
Garvey
I know Williams needs game time and confidence, but we looked so much better with Witt being a foil for Widdop. As for Farrell, think we need more thrust and power out wide so think we need to give Mata'utia or Runciman a go. Kyle needs game time in the Cutters so Garvey should slot straight back in as utility.
