Big big game from Nathan. He's coming along nicely. I know the Warriors are trash but it was still a pretty good win. We haven't had much to celebrate this year, let's enjoy it. I'm happy

I don't mind Rein hogging the ball here and there.Adds a bit more unpredictability and when Cleary does get the ball, he can score tries like he did tonight with ease.

That was a good win considering they scored two tries while we had CHN in the bin and losing Merrin in the first half. Great to see Cleary have a great game, although it was only the Warriors maybe Moylan needs to give him a bit more responsibility.

Watching a different Rein to me I thought he was excellent again.

His passes are just a little off a lot of the time, on clearys first try he gives a perfect pass and Cleary can catch it out in front of himself without checking his momentum at all and go on to make his play. Rein rarely delivered a pass on the money like that tonight so it was noticeable when he did.

Our defence was super soft tonight at times. But our attack was slightly more adventurous and we won a game we had no right to win.

Cleary turned god mode on tonight.

A good coach will get constant wins out of a side.A great coach will have the knowledge when to tell a certain player that he is not the playmaker any more.

Over to you Mr Griffin...someone has come of age.

Also you could see Mansour warm into the game more and more towards the end.The confidence of the best winger in the comp is coming back.

Roach was commenting how Mansour isn't the same player he was after the injury.

A minute or so later,Roach was praising the fook out of him...very funny to listen to on the replay,

Apart from Cleary, RCG was our best on the field. Big hits and ran hard all night, really made a difference.
I laughed out loud when Blake got some early ball at the end of the second half, he was so stunned he didn't know what to do and just stopped.

? If you mean Moylan I think it would be better having them share it more equally. They are both amazing.

I just don't get the Rein hate. He was outstanding in defence, incisive out of dummy half and his ball distribution fine. Major contributor.

Credit to the coach. The decision to bring RCG off the bench proved to be a master stroke and he was the best forward on the field. RCG was outstanding tonight and really lifted us when we needed a lift.

Yes young Nathan was MOM but RCG was equally as important with his go forward when we needed it.

On the sin binning that was the biggest joke I have seen in a long time. Farcical. Still fuming even thou we have won. Should have guaranteed a win for the Warriors on the back of there two tries during the 10 minutes CHN was off the field but too our credit we got the job done. Again it was a farcical decision and never, ever have I ever seen anyone sin binned in that situation, ever in the NRL, even worse when you watch how it was milked.

I hink we should go back to when Moylan was fullback. I think Griff and Gould have foreseen Cleary as the future playmaker.

Going by tonight's display,I can see were that logic came from.Maybe keeping May at 5/8,and having Moylan back at fullback might be the positional way to go for now until we recall Edwards in case of injury.

What I predict for now might sound blasphist to some.But for the long run,it might be for the best.
