What I saw from Bunty was good one on one tackles. Lead the line and nailed the raiders ball carriers. To me this has been Buntys best year! Tom Ale has also improved from previous years too. They are doing their job.
Adam Blair was a shit coach for the Maori All Star team. Tuaupiki is getting better and better! Especially on defence! Roger is doing ok in the centres. Tons of energy!
I think Lussick has earned his spot with a beast of a preseason! Certainly looked better this year than last. Shame about Niukore. Hopefully it isn’t too bad of an injury. Would have been good to get CNK next week against the Storm.
I saw this too. He had already been tackled JMK fell off the tackle and then comes back while DWZ plays the ball and then he drops it. Isn’t that hands in the ruck? The ref had some Gumby calls.
This new RTS is better than the old one! That’s saying something. Playing Union has made him better. Mainly the playmaking ability. There’s no pressure on RTS! He’s just there to play!
Freddy might be a Smokey for a bench spot. He’s definitely the backup hooker. His defense was really good in the trial. But like someone else pointed out in another thread his footy Iq is that of a rock. Wish we could give some of Egans to him to use!
That’s someone that didn’t get enough praise in the weekend. I saw a ton of improvement from him including the defensive side of things. Also gave a few quick ball to RTS and Ali. But yes should get seconds over CNK. Not go back to RTS.
