Leota ran hard & defended like a beast for the most part.

Couple of mistakes but I wouldn’t cut the nose off to spite the face, plenty of upside imo.

Fair. He needs to calm down. Seems very.... energetic/excitable might be the word. He's like a dog who gets so excited you're home from work it doesn't know what to do with itself.

He’s not going to be able to do it every week, but we saw Maloney take over the game in a way I’m not sure Cleary can yet. I’d really like to see Maloney take more of the lead when Cleary comes back. How much better are those long kicks for the corners than mid field bombs?!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not going hard on Cleary, he’s still an excellent up and coming player, I just think the team overall can benefit from Maloney stepping up more and Cleary learning from him.

He's not an NRL player.

He's the next Vaipuna Tia Kilifi while Sione Katoa is the next Masada Iosefa.

Having all the attributes to be good means nothing. Some guys just never deliver in first grade. A good moment or two is not enough to make an NRL player.

Was great but the way JT rolled over wasn't him....

Ummm how about Leota?

This was a one sided ass kicking jntil he came on.
Yes if we lost i would agree with you there but when you have your half out, loop sided penalty count, 10 minute sin bin and playing away from home for Penrith to come up with a victory like that for mine is a 10 out of 10 team performance.

How did he not deliver tonight though? Cos he made an error?

You just wanna put shit on someone cos you can’t criticise your usual suspects.

Result should be irrelevant to an individuals performance.

If we lost would you yhink Maloney or JFH played poorly?

There are 17 players in a team. If one xan put ghe ogher 16 under the pump... he's clearly a liability.

Are you f**king serious?
By this logic any player that makes a mistake is a liability? Never played the game eh?

First run. Makes an error. Immediately throwing away momentum.

Second run. Is driven back. Our entire set results in a 9 metre gain... by far the worst set of the game for us not involving sn error.

Lazy high shot for a penalty agsinst us..

He was by far our worst player. I know you wantto suck his dick. (Sorry if you're simply related to him) But hes a momentum swinger against us. One opportunistic try does not erase all the shit moments.

His lowlights far exceed his single highlight

This is fair and id like to hear a reasonable argument against it
