    Your team vs Eels

    Didn’t Benji have to get a dispensation for Tino to play? Not sure if that is a week to week thing or a set period of time.

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    I tend to agree but his trajectory is like a Temu Seyfarth!

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    When he played for us, I always thought he was still trying to play school boy football in the way he crabbed across the field looking for lazy defenders. When that didn’t work, he became increasingly frantic and tried miracle plays. Many young halves have elite off the mark speed that sees them...

    LIVE GAME Round 4 vs Warriors

    It is a bit of a quandary. I agree that Latu straightens the attack and is much better link man but AD is a much greater threat with ball in hand both in the middle and on an edge.

    Not sure if it means anything but both Alex and AD had their futures sorted pre-season signing term deals. Maybe that has given them confidence to go and perform?

    3-2-1 Round 4 vs NZ

    3 - AD (insane stats 9 line breaks, 2 try assists, 2 line break assists and over 200m - like Benji in his prime). 2 - Twally (47 tackles 0 misses, 120m+ run metres and a line break assist). 1 - KPP (Try, 40+ tackles) HM - basically everyone! Jock, Api, Roycey, Samuela, Tino, Luke etc

    LIVE GAME Round 4 vs Warriors

    Just got back from the game. I sat in line with our try line (defending in second half). The goal line defence was amazing, The Wahs threw plenty of shape at us but we kept on turning up. Our Edges with KPP and Samuela leading the defensive line, we were really strong. Maka had a mixed game...

    LIVE GAME Round 4 vs Warriors

    At the game - Tavana gets some serious air. Ref is not great for both teams but has helped us more on the balance of things. Roycey gives a real lift when he comes on. Makasini should be on the wing Bulla trying but his timing is a fraction off when he injects himself. Douiehi is a handful...

    Flown over for the game. Currently sitting on Auckland harbour and you could not ask for a better day! (Yesterday was apocalyptic levels of rain). Expect a fast track and open game.

    The halves problem

    Madden and Andrews for me with Latu off the bench. While Andrews hasn’t set the world on fire in Cup, he hasn’t had a managing half to work with. He looked very classy with Madden in the trials when he had space. I like Latu but he will be short of a gallop while Andrews does have some...

    Adam Doueihi #227

    I tend to agree with you. As a 13 he doesn’t need to lead the team around the park. He can concentrate on his own game and chime in when he sees an opportunity. Remember, Luai is probably a much larger personality than Latu and I think he even struggled at 7. TBH the person that most looks like...
