I know there has been a lot of debate around Addin this year. But man it has been great having him at our club.

Remember before he arrived how much we wanted a big man or needed some size. Or concern about our go forward. He has been great covering that. The guy has been churning out big metres most weeks. He has given us a good platform to work off. Has a bit motor and often finds his front as he's so difficult for the opposition to contain with his late footwork.

It will be interesting to see the impact he has at the Sharks or how they use him.

It has been great the last few years knowing we had one of the best front rowers and were likely to compete in the middle with Addin churning out big metres.

Absolutely. We need his go forward and the way he carries defenders. Did you see him send McInnes tumbling early in one of his carries last night. Bye big fulla

We're going to miss him, even at half effort he's our best prop by a margin. At full effort he's probably the best in the NRL, only probably because of that freak Haas. There's a lot to be said for having a top 2 player in their position, and it is not a common thing for the wahs. Even SJ last year who deservedly should have had the dally M, was probably not a top 2 half if everyone was fully fit.

Shame, but god knows how this season looks without him dominating the middle.

 

[Beastmode]

Aside from the one game suspension was he ever injured this season? Amazing effort by the big man. So consistent every week also

 

[Defence]

Absolute beast.

Gonna miss this..

Our player of the year IMO. Daylight second

I'll riot with Mrs Fonua-Blake if he doesn't get it.

Mitch Barnett for me. Thought Hynes try celebration was peculiar that was a no try. Like he did AFB’s try celebration followed by a fuck you to the crowd?

Hynes himself doesn’t know what he’s doing But yeah so satisfying to watch it go up stairs for a NO try

Hazelton did it as well. Were they trying to win AFB up?

 

[Ref]

AFB has set a platform every week that other clubs would dream of.
IMO he is in the conversation of “the best props that have ever played the game”.

He'll probably get it but AFB has been superior iMO by a significant margin

 

[Ref]

AFB was massive last night as usual.

McInnes hit the ground three times on contact with AFB. I think he lost another four teeth.

Mcinnes had 4 teeth?
That bloke could eat a watermelon through a Pickett fence.

Yes AFB our player of the year
Consistency consistency
Effort and more effort
A big big loss

Massive loss but it may also force a rethink of our team and bench rotation. Need to cover his minutes and output somehow. That may mean more impactful minutes from some of our bench players. Maybe?
