Smith and Cronk are both playing. Welch, Tonumaipea, Britt and White drop off bench.

Another poor conversion attempt from Cameron Smith.

Jesse Bromwich is utterly ridiculous. He's already run for 105 metres, made 19 tackles, has a line break and a try.

Our forward pack are nothing short of f*cking beasts...
Dominant through the middle.

Eddie Munster continues to star at the back. Saved a 40/20 , then slipped through the tiniest gap to make 30 metres. Absolute gun. Also very happy with both Blair and Morgan. Nothing flash, but mistake-free, and excellent try by Morgan.

Whole team has been great. Thought Green has been good, put in a couple of great kicks particularly given the conditions for drop outs.
Cameron's 40-20 was sensational.
The forwards just rock.
How funny is it seeing Cheyse Blair in long sleeves and with a moustache?

Love the long sleeves. Anyone know where I can get one?

Are we sure he doesn't just have a body armour style tight top under a normal jersey?

Either way he has ditched it and is back in conventional jersey for the second half.

Judging by Vossy's statement after half time, hopefully they'll be available to purchase. Hopefully they don't try to milk too much out of the extra fabric

Great win boys. The second half was a little sloppy but our brilliant defence held strong again.
Jesse, Smithy, Cronk and Tohu were fantastic. Everyone else was very good (barring a couple of silly errors from Suli).
NAS is such a gun. That run at the end was beautiful to watch.

Suli didn't have the best game, but it was great to see him attack and take that bomb from Soward after about 60 minutes.
I hope we re-sign NAS quick smart.

Very good win against good opposition. Agree with the comments above, but I note also the excellent performances by Proctor and Finucane. Glasby is also bending the line much more when he comes on.
Marieke hurt his shoulder making a tackle ( actually looked like a shoulder charge by him ), and went off the field. He only reappeared on the bench in the last minute. I suspect that between his shoulder and Suli's fumbles, Young T will be playing next week. He was terrific early in the season - as Craig acknowledged mid week, and both Centres must keep their spots.
