Glass half full: I genuinely liked what I saw from Dylan Brown, in only his sixth First Grade game.
He will be a star.
Agree. I tell you what Moses was pretty good too. Ok not exactly patient or indeed composed, but showed plenty of skill. We are in a good place with our 6 & 7 moving forward.
Grasping at straws seems to be our modus operandi using this logic. Fair enough, too. That first half was quite diabolical, but was quite the litmus test on where we stand.Not only are we still in the eight, but Manly play a full strength Storm in Melbourne next wekk, and the Panthers have the Raiders. Knights play the Tigers. and we have the Warriors at Wankbest.
We will still be in the eight next week. And there's a fair to middling chance we'll cop a bit of breathing space

It is, but everything in perspective, which team below us have performed any better?
Tbh beyond the top four and the bottom two or three, there's not that much difference for mine, as far we go, our best is still better than the best of those below us, our worst is probably on par.
The Sharks at their best are probably better than us. They showed that when they walloped us in Cronulla.
We were far from our best that night. But yes, The Sharkies at their best would be possibly the only one of the teams below us that could better us at our best.
I wouldn't call it a given though.
Our problem is still the difference between our worst and our best is easily the largest in the comp, and it can switch on or off within the space of half a game.
I thought Alvaro was outstanding, and really made a difference to our ruck defence once he came on.
Evans was in beast mode tonight.
Nathan Brown just doesn't stop.
