So someone like T-Rex ?

T-Rex hasn't played like that in 5-6 yrs. But if he recaptures that form, yeah sure. But I highly doubt that he will. Love to be proven wrong though.

And as for Moeroa being a better player then Kikau. What Moreoa delivers is a dime a dozen in the NRL. What Kikau delivers, teams like the Broncos, Roasters, Sharks and Eels, wish they had. That is why these teams will probably fair ok barring injuries but will win FA at the end.

Kikau certainly has been a superstar so far this season.....

Let's see how Kikau goes when his team doesn't have all the ball. Don't forget he wasn't even good enough for their top 17 last year, at 22 years of age. He is only good for running at halfbacks.

Who the f**k is this bloke?!! I mean lets be honest, he has one good f**king game and people are screaming like he is a leading backrower. He probably got the jump on us as we didn't plan for him and they got a real roll on big deal. When we play them next our guys will be prepared and then lets see how he goes...

Jesus, talk about a ridiculous reaction. We'll f**king smash the merkin next game as will other teams from this week onwards.

When was the last time a giant edge forward won a premiership? It was Tony Williams in 2011.

The duke has put together a nice squad. Workers who also make impact like Yeo,Merrin,Tamou then they unleash the power of Rcg,Kikau,Jfh....
All our players are first graders. But the balance is off. KE,Terepo and maybe T rex or Niaukore can change this. Even Vae if he pulls his finger out.

But relax Ram apparently our smaller pack struggled in the heat and once gets cooler we be fine. I always thought it be the other way around but what would I know.

Doubt it. Maloney was non existant.Once him and Cleary learn each others games they will be no 1 in power rankings.
Kikau might be caught out in defense outwide but will cause all sorts of dramas in attack.

It's not their size, it's the extra intensity they defend with. That's why Brown had to have a rest. But mostly the heat killed us because Penrith has all their possession in one block in the middle of the game when our benches were on the field. Penrith don't defend with much line speed either, which is better in the heat.

It's hardly just one game. You obviously haven't been watching his progression son.

It's not so much him being an edge forward. It's what he brings to the table due to size and aggression. We have nothing like it unless T-Rex stuns us all and turns back the clock to his Manly days. Very unlikely though.

We will get dominated by the bigger more aggressive teams. Cowboys and Storm for example.
