Credit to Moeora for putting a dent into the defensive line. A rare sight for our forward pack.

Warbrick in no man’s land there. Good recovery but can’t believe they didn’t score there

We’ve been really flat footed in the second half. Those last couple of tries have come off the back of nothing and impressive individual brilliance

Nice win by the boys, Grant Hughes and King were huge, Tepai & Eli were fantastic off the bench and the new centres both did an awesome job! Can’t help but be a bit irritated that guys like Seve, Tepai, Macca etc have been playing QLD cup all year whilst some guys who deserved to be dropped ages ago have been in the 17 most weeks, hopefully CB makes the right calls on the run in.

Looked like Young T did a hammy late, shame he was fantastic especially defending Penisini, Olam may get a recall due to no other players available I hope he has some fire in the belly after being dropped.

Solid display - all of the the spine players were terrific.

Best performance for a good few weeks.

Nice to see Seve, Moera and Katoa do well on their returns

Finally a decent game from our halves. Katoa was an important inclusion, Seve was great, Eisenhuth was very solid, as was Moeroa once he got a stupid penalty out of his system. Overall effort was much improved obviously - we would have conceded at least 3 or 4 more tries in past weeks, especially with some discipline issues still there (plus the usual handicap playing against the opposition's best in Klown).

So Tepai in for Tariq? Otherwise I agree.

Definitely Tepai over Sims! No question.
