Fittest player in the comp but I'd argue Yeo works as hard and I'll fight you to the death on that

Nup. I beat my life to death that dylan would cover a good 3 to 4kms more than any other panther on the field..

A lot of those meters are at 85% to 95% top speed as well which is extremely taxing..

Yeo is a hard worker no doubt but he will often go a full set without any runs... just distributions.

Dyl avgs the most meters in the comp with the ball in hand... and is there any doubt he avgs the most off the ball???

Hes a freak... and i love yeo.. yeo is more integral to the structure and is a great player.

But no one in the comp works harder than dyl..

Our middle was pure class tonight. JFH back to his best and doing a job on NAS, Leota’s impact was immense, and Kenny + Yeo controlling the middle.

Hosking can do a job but probably wouldn’t be my pick at centre. His hands for the two try assists were ridiculous though.

Hosking did really well but there were a few moments that made me think he shouldn’t be in the centres, then he would nail a pass for bizza to score or come up with a really good run. Defensively probably wouldn’t want him up against some of the really good centres in the comp but overall on tonight’s effort he gets a 7/10 on the betcats ratings which is awesome for a fringish backrower playing in the centres against the storm.

Cody would do him far worse than Salmon imo

You need to spend time with it. Like nurturing a flower.

Not one and done like your youthful days. A drink for the mature.

I’ve been putting away whiskeys since 5pm, will admit I prefer a blended but certainly don’t mind a good single malt when on offer.

I thought soni was really good when he came on tonight.

Albeit the game was done...

But he didnt overplay his hand... and he ran the ball when he had to and had a couple really nice moments...

He had the skills.. ivan could do worse than letting him start for a week if we lock up the top 2

The second half defence was super impressive, defended our try line like it was our daughters virginity and never really looked like being cracked despite them gettting plenty of chances.

Yeah... much different team with hughes back and if paps comes back close to what he was theyll be dangerous.

I think theres a very good chance we get them in week 1..

I hope we have a few things up our sleeve.

I get the feeling bellamy is playing the long game.

But our defence was incredible non the less..

I just dont think they threw a lot of grest attack at us tonight.

Theres no doubt we struggle with south's... latrell and cody can hurt anyone...

I think brissie will be the same... reynolds and walsh...

I see them as pur biggest threats...

Id paps can somehow find his old form in 5 weeks theyll be a different team. Meaney is a plod.

But cant help be proud of the lads tonight

We all would have liked to see us put them to the sword and probably score more than the one try in the second half but I thought we were just relentless, very impressive overall.

No doubt they are more dangerous with Hughes but we are more dangerous and bettter defensively with Tago not to mention Spence. We meet them week 1 in the finals at Penrith and we are fit a win or a loss will depend on if we play our best or not. At our best they can’t beat us 99 times out of 100.

Pap is awesome but he completely shattered his kneecap and has missed a huge anount of footy, even if he’s fit for the finals he might not add anything.

Just watched the Craig Bellamy press conference.

I really respect the guy, he just gives credit where credit is due, same as the game at Marvel Stadium he gave us our dues.

Compare his press conferences to the Trent Robinson press conferences there is no comparison. Trent Robinson in neither conference acknowledged us in any way whatsoever.

Have to respect Bellamy for the credit and dignity he has shown in defeat.

No choice. He’s just telling it as it is.
