Wow thoughts @martielang

What a game & especially 2nd half from Mansour. Defensively made crucial defensive decisions & with the ball was enormous.

Kenny plays simple football but didn’t put a foot wrong, what a game. Same as Naden, solid as.

Not a bad player for us. Plenty of brain dead decisions but that’s just how we roll.

Katoa shouldn't see first grade ever again

Sadly Kenny wont be available next week.

Unless Cleary is injured in Origin. This is like Moylan in his ddbut season stuck behind Wes Naiqama sll over.

Kenny = Moylan
Katoa = Wes Naiqama

f**k Dallin off. Promote Kenny. Use remainder to frontload other players and relieve the cap in 2020. If DWZ isnt llaying. Get fid of him. I love him. But hes a waste of cap space snd position right now.

Wow thoughts @martielang

Was superb tonight. Very basic rugby league but plays to his limits not over them, which is probably Katoas downfall.

Katoas 10 tackles were tremendous too tbf.

@Dave's mate i have noticed MX ain’t banging on about our lack of run metres from our Hooker this week though...

 

[Abacus]

A shame they couldn't go on with it from 15-0. Winning by 20+ was on the cards, instead its only 3 points.

Surely Yeo won't be in the centres next week against the Roosters. He started to get done for speed in the 2nd half.

 

[Luke Bowden]

Much better, ran out of puff in the last ten, but over all, really good.

Love Kenny.

Really liked Naden, Solid defender and I think I can see a really good running game.

Martin - shit yeah son! That’s what I’ve been waiting for.

They all played well, without being amazing. Great energy in defence which really won us the game.

If its from the bench I'm ok with it. Just dont give him so many minutes next time . I think he's best used warming the bench for our stars.

 

[Black Magik]

That motor on Fanua BLAKE needs to bottled!

Good win. Another good weekend

Kenny 80 minutes, Katoa just 7 mins.

Just dont give him so many minutes next time .

7 minutes too many?

Still weirdly considering he ran for over 200m, I thought we contained him & Tapau really well though.

 

[Dave's mate]

Not a fair comparison really but Martin almost looked like a mini Tamalololololo. Same stocky running style

Foughts From Fangs:

Manly were crap. We made that win look hard but we were easily the better side. Another 2 points.

Kenny showing our 9's how it's done. Massive effort in defence and smart/simple dummy half play. Katoa/Egan are lucky he isn't in our top 30.

Edwards looks a completely different player since his return to first grade. He is communicating and taking on a lot more responsibility.

Martin excellent. Real goer. Fan since debut.

Halves were okay, nothing spectacular but no strike power to work with. Maloney looked a little quiet to me. Probably thinking what the weather will be like in Leeds.

Fui was not impressive and a liability in defence. May, Cartwright would surely be ahead of him if available. I hope to see Martin take his place next week when Kikau returns.

Right side defence is crap. Need Whare back urgently.

I think he played 80? Maybe I missed a rest but I agree we contained him pretty well, he just kept coming.

Liam Martin what a game. And well done Mitch Kenny, once he is top grade and Egan is fit that could work for us at 9.

Maloney played well, we looked more organised with him but I still think if we can hold him for the month and let him go we do it.

Right side D got very tired. Both tries conceeded on that edge.

He’s ridiculous.

 

[age.s]

Decent performance. Bit of a cripple fight really, but in the end I think we could and probably should have gone on with it at 15-0 up. Good to get another win and a bit more confidence all the same.

We're a different team when our wingers are firing. To'o looks like a legit player and Mansour winding back the clock after being dropped is a huge bonus for us. They were both immense tonight.

Edwards had a good first half but showed he hasn't fully shaken his wobbles in the second.

Kenny was good and looks like our strongest hooking option atm.

Fish was very good.

Luai didn't have his best game but offers something so different to Maloney and Cleary he absolutely has to pair one of them. Reckon Maloney's time might be up.

Martin a clear MotM. Awesome to watch.

Cummins really is an abortion of a referee. Give yourself an uppercut you cheating mong.

I’d be starting Martin on the other side after that effort, if he can play that side.

He brought an energy in his debut that no one else in our squad was offering at that point. He shouldn't be left out of our starting 17. I'd trust him in the middle or either edge right now.

Forgot to wrap Too, he was brilliant again.

Cummins sent up the obstruction against Martin and called a strip when the ball didn’t even leave Marty’s hand. He’s a disgrace.
