[The Friz]

Has anyone checked on the prince of centres Gitano tonight? Just keep him away from sharp objects.

Has a nice pass.
Great Goalkicking.
Defends well.
Can score some beautiful try's this kid is growing on me week in week out we may have just got him for a bargain with the 6 year deal he signed last year.

Aitken is going great at left centre.

He is playing much better on the left, I’ll give him that but Zac is also purring along very nicely at right centre

He is playing well..that said..he looks more like a forward....runs hard / strong...

 

[thebigredv]

three try assists (including the bat down at end)
two intercepts that led to tries, including one of his own
great goal kicking

a big day out no matter how you look at it

MOTM performance

Cant believe he didn't get any points in the Dally M.

Dally M’s are a farce. Agendas everywhere. Ask the playing group and I’m pretty confident he was players player

Hunt was epic but I would have given him at least 2. Not many if any centres have as much influence on their side as he’s having. A lot of the time centres depend on players inside them to have an impact but somehow he always finds a way to make something happen.

Temper it a little, it was a misread on his part that contributed significantly to Manly's try. He's played well the last couple of games. And Aitken looks to have improved on the other side.

I don’t think Aitken has improved at all to be honest. He’s always ran hard, he just now has Clune over on the left feeding him some good ball. He would go equally well on the right if he got ball there. Still don’t see the winger outside him getting much ball.

More of a missed forward pass by ref contributed. Ref made amends gave us one back. Lomax goes alright I'm happy as with Aitken.

Rav hasn't either - one good pass from Lomax yesterday. I don't think either winger has been getting alot of good ball from the centres.

Actually Lomax rushed out of the line looking for an intercept that opened a hole for Thompson to push through. Had he not done that, Thompson most likely wouldn't have scored. Like I said, last couple of games he's played well. Just need to make sure he keeps it up.

One fantastic ball, the same ball he fed Saab with last week that Aitken has not been able to produce in how many years? Zac is our leading point scorer, has scored a number of tries and do you want to look up how many assists he’s had too while you are at it? He’s 20 and has been in our top 4-5 players each week since round 1. He’s already proven himself like it or not, well and truly. If you can’t see that you are blind. No one is going to have a completely flawless performance every minute of every game but to be regularly winning players player, motm awards and Dally M points at his age in his position is pretty impressive. Just remember he’s 20.

I have expressed my concern that Zac is not ‘bog slow’ but lacks dash. My last post I said he may develope into a strong Robert Finch type centre which is a positive. Like Manu at the Roosters.

The team generally has been playing well in recent weeks and yesterday against a weakened Sea Eagles we had a strong result.

Zac played a great game yesterday. He had energy and good game vision, with both intercepts demonstrating that. The 1 st was quick give the flying Matt Dufty the ball and the second he judged that he could make it to the try line himself. A bit like Gareth W was getting run down but still sprinted well and knew what was required to score.

Good on Zac for a good game and BTW Euan is strong also. Is it possible that Clune with his busy and speed around the park is really contributing. Hunt also good.

Last one this side GD.....
Dally M's...we all know who some of the voters / judges and are not surprised... are we.
It would not shock me if it was the media favs that got the points for doing 1 highlight thing in the game

Aitken is going great at left centre.

Aitken's contract is due for an extension so hence the extra effort. He still finds it difficult to provide a good pass to his winger and would rather just tuck the ball under his arm and run. I believe Williame is a better left-centre and Feagai to prove to be even better over the next couple of years.
