Jesse played 69 mins – 14 above his average and looked the goods the whole time he was out there. Matter of fact, he somehow looked better towards the end. Craig – Keep him out there longer!

Jesse - 19 hit-ups, 170 metres, 32 tackles, 69 mins, 3 tackle breaks (including that screamer where he stood up Mark Minichello), 3 offloads, 1 try assist, 1 line break assist, 1 line break

Tohu – 18 hit-ups, 173 metres, 39 tackles, 80 mins, 5 tackle breaks, 1 line break

Those two are absolute STARS.

Kevvie Proctor also put in an admirable performance. Played the full 80 mins, 12 hit-ups 112 metres, 33 tackles


Bryan Norrie cracked the 100m run for the second time this year (well, he made exactly 100m). Yay? His average is 69 metres per game and only Hinchcliffe makes less metres per carry.

I was more impressed with Glasby than I have been in his previous performances. Again, didn't get much of an opportunity but did a few small things that looked promising. a couple of good runs and decent defence.

Was that Tohu's best game of his career so far ? I can't remember any other performance where he looked so dangerous running the ball.

I think it would be... It is definitely his best game this year. I don't have stats for last year but there was one game where he dominated at centre... I doubt it was as good as yesterday though.

Tohu is best when he plays the full 80 minutes.

Yep I totally agree. "The Graveyard" did have a great personality.

I do still miss the "Graveyard". Yes it was cold, old and uncomfortable. But it was so much fun to go there and other teams hated it.

Give him 100% of the cap and I'd still feel he was undervalued on current form!

I reckon the final score was about right. It shouldn't have been, but then we dropped the ball cold or gave away dumb penalties and let them back into the game.
Great work to hang on though after they let the Tits back in.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
