Not sure about Dylan walker at number 6 , I think Lyon would go better there with Walker out wide . They looked awful tonight but just like Parra - new players take time to settle in .

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Manly aren't as good as most think they will be. They don't have much experience at 5/8 or hooker, there back rowers are only average. Not much depth / quality at prop and their back line is aging.

They are only a mid table team.

Hoppa is back - ALl i can say is he is looking a lot sharper then he did here!!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I thought he was no better or worse. Just playing behind a better pack.

 

[Noise]

Hoppa scored by just planting the ball from a little grubber but other than that he was similar to last year. He only ran for 99m which is pretty average for a fullback (Gordon only ran for 74m, Boyd 94 and Tom T 179m). No tackle busts, no line breaks and no line break assists. Pretty standard Hoppa if you ask me

 

[hineyrulz]

He was solid, typical Hoppa. He's a very solid first grader. Just not worth anything near we were or going to pay him.

 

[hindy111]

I thought he looked more confident

 

[strider]

Im sure he looked confident when we were winning some games too.

I agree with everyone, he was stock standard dependable hoppa

 

[Kornstar]

Yep, Hoppa looked no different to me either.

When the Dogs lose a game no doubt he will come under scrutiny for not doing more.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Who is the better fullback Gordon or Hoppa?

Who would BA prefer if hoppa had Gordon's price tag?

 

[Twizzle]

I'd say thats a yes, Hoppa has pretty good hands and he has skills, unfortunately pace is not one of them

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Who is the better fullback Gordon or Hoppa?

Who would BA prefer if hoppa had Gordon's price tag?

I'd say they're on a par as fullbacks. Gordon's advantages are better speed, work rate, experience and goal kicking. Hopoate is stronger, better in the air, and has a great passing game.
