    Lol yeah I had a feeling he wouldn't do much, i put some money on under 38.5 pts considering that and the fact that Cleary is in the same basket and struggles to create anything. Figured Roosters would win in a low scoring defensive match.

    Always good to see the mighty Pandas beat Roosters, will be tough to see Kikau inevitably end up in the tri colours over the next 2.5 seasons though.

    Nah he looks a genuine athlete IMO.

    Just needs to avoid putting on weight and moving into the middle.

    4 weeks sounds right with his track record. Thought it was deserving of a sin bin on the night too.

    Very similar to his one last year.

    Got trampled by one of the Cowboys forwards 30 seconds later, really needs to start worrying about matching it with blokes his own size and get the cheap shots on outside backs out of his game.

    Could be the first time in 40 years that we have no SOO.

    I'd love to see it get played at the end of the year.

    Pretty clunky in attack, as the whole side did. Not sure we created a clean linebreak all game..

    To be fair like last year we were the only side coming into the season without having any trial matches, having played the WCC nearly a month ago, naturally our conditioning seemed to drop off the longer the game went on.

    Don't understand players who chose to wear sock skins but then play with their socks down.

    What's doing Lomax?

    Someone needs to give Maguire and the Tigers the memo that giving your best player the ball is probably a good idea

    Fuck Brooks is shit but this is exactly the kind of game he'd set up tries with his shin grubbers and randomly sneaking through the line.

    Walters and Thompson have been horrible.

    Walters has done alright aside from the errors.

    Grant will be an upgrade.

    Frizelli is a great player but over the years you can't help but notice just how bad his passing is.

    These two sides are awful.

    Lucky result in the end. The two tries they did score were flukes, but they should've scored at least a couple that they bombed.

    Thompson needs to go to the wing and Doueihi to fullback. Doueihi isn't a good ball player but at least the ball doesn't die with him like it does with Thompson.

    I thought Walters was decent. The errors sucked, but the service was decent and he didn't seem too bad defensively. Grant apparently coming across next week - that should be a big boost.

    Our pack was immense. Twal - Aloiai - Mikaele - Musgrove is gonna be handful for almost every team. I think we just need to work on the backline shift to the right. Marshall with Leilua x2 and Nofoaluma should be one of the best attacking edges in the comp. If we can sort that out, I think we should make the 8.
