Good player with heart. Interesting to see where he plays next year with RTS at No.1 and that he's probably not ready to play 6. Sort of guy you want in the 17 somewhere.
We are still a bottom 8 side, we've just beaten two side who very well might be 15th and 16th.
Lolohea will play 6 next year, barring some miracle happening and us picking up a good half (or keeping Townsend). If Robert Lui wasn't a wife-beater I'd look at him... as it is though, no dickheads. Anyway back on Lolohea, it's too early to be looking at next season for him- we're still very much in THIS season so he plays wherever needed most on a week to week basis.. if we get to the point where we are effectively out of the running then we can sit Chad down and use Lolo in the 6.
I'm really not sure where we stand in terms of top/bottom 8. It's hard to tell with so many good players out for so many games - but if I had to guess I'd say we're part of the few fringe finals teams... going into the Origin period with a 5-5 record is a good sign, same with Tomkins returning. Right now I'd probably group the teams as finals certainties (Storm, Dragons, Cowboys, Roosters, Souths & Broncos), fringe finals teams (Bulldogs, Manly, Warriors, Panthers & maybe Raiders) and probable bottom half teams (Tigers, Sharks, Titans, Knights & Eels)- hence why it's so hard to tell where we stand exactly.. we haven't played many teams in that middle group.
