You should tell him Scooter. At the last after party I told Lowrie that my children thought he looked like Thor with his purple lightning bolt helment on. His fac lite up and was really impressed. He said he would take it as a compliment and remember it next time he put his helment on.

How good was SISA last night.I don`t think he would have been able to put the ball down in play if he had caught it.I trust his judgement,if he thought he could have done it he would have.
I am looking forward to the first S.W.A.S. banner in the crowd.
I get annoyed listening to rabs calling Widdop..WidDOP.Why does he do that?.

How good was our man last night???

The stats show 3 errors but in reality, all three of those touches were probably try savers. If a saved try is just as valuable as a try scored, chalk the man up for a hat trick!

Not to mention how strong he was when running the ball, especially out of our own end.

Might have even been 4 passes knocked down by Waqa, can't remember and I've watched the game three times already.

Sisa has been our most improved player in 2012 without a doubt. It's been thoroughly enjoyable watching his improvement game by game during the latter part of the season and throughout our finals campaign.

The braveness and courage he showed against the Sharks when he darted to the left from dummy half and subsequently threw a beautiful ball to Chambers to put him over for the match-winning try seconds before the full time siren will be one of my fondest memories of the 2012 season. If that pass had have gone over the sidelines then I highly doubt we would have seen him again this season.

Our boy has done the society proud. I want to organise some sort of Q&A with Sisa on this site I recon it would be great! I want to know about his past in SOG in Fiji. Surely he possess the skill to kill a man with his bare hands which is why I am questioning why he didnt go snapping necks in that fight

James Grahem's lucky it wasn't Sisa's ear he had a chew on. Reynolds, I think it was, went blow for blow with him at one point there.

I think we're lucky the MRC haven't scrutinised the entire fight

They have - Sisa & Lowrie charged and will miss a week apparently.

Yeah I read that today. Reynolds charged too but likely to take early guilty plea and be free to play rd1.
Does missing WCC count as Sisa's suspension? Or can he play in this game?

Sisa is probably one of the last guys I'd ever want to throw hands with.

All pre-season games count towards suspensions, so any lead-up games played prior to the WCC should count...

What!?! Does that include trials? So, as an example, James Grahem gets 8 weeks, he skips 4 trials and only misses 4 NRL games?

Yep... plus take off another 2-3 games that he would've played for England over October/November... so let's hope he gets 12+ weeks to have any real impact, especially after arrogantly pleading not guilty!
