Most importantly, he's been much better defensively lately.

Not really much to draw from it, but in recent years players who left us have gone on to find better form at their new clubs. It felt like the same might happen this year with well credentialed experienced players leaving us in bad form. However, that form has continued at their new clubs so...

People on here are pretty confident. I see that Newcastle have a number of injuries but I think a win away at Newcastle would be a big achievement for our club and I don't think it will be easy. The last time we played them they ran over us and would have had quite a few tries were it not for...

Interesting a lot of people have Galvin very high. What do people who rate his game think of his organisation and pass selection? His attacking kicks were very good, but I think he had a lot of bad moments and we looked choppy and messy without luai, and I don't feel that was latu's fault. Seems...

Yeah those stats are poor. I'm a really big critic of seyfarth but I actually think he's been doing well. I don't know that he's really there for hit ups. It's not like we struggle with go forward, and that's definitely not his strength, so I think he does his part in the team, which is to...

I don't agree at all, but it was interesting in the press conference that Reynolds said when talking about the chip kick that they had looked at Bula during the week and were planning the chip to catch him out. Obviously they're seeing something similar to your frustrations.

First 30 was very impressive. Line speed and physicality was best I've seen for ages. We obviously ran out of puff before half time. Right throughout the Broncos halves looked so classy, all the little things they do well and they really singlehandedly lifted them with the 2pt field goal...

Katouga doesn't look impressive to me. Inconsistent in attack and poor in defense. True that he's better than tumeth, though.

I too lament the rapid rate of migration, but what about arguments that suggest they play a vital role in skill shortages and reducing the migration number therefore has deeper economic impacts rather than just the simple suggestion that fewer people equals more available housing stock? Perhaps...

Long rant, sorry. I want to get it all in before we all get banned: I am really disappointed that both the government and opposition don't push for tax reform or spending cuts that prioritise a balanced budget. This idea of surpluses in 10 years time by both the libs last election and Labor now...

Galvin has many really good moments but I'm still not convinced he's a top tier player. Still a liability defensively, inconsistent in attack with plenty of errors, often cramps up attacking movements. So much also to like: variety of passing, kicking game getting better and better, strength...

I'm confused about 'six again' calls. In the set before the Bula no try we got a six again call in goalkicking range. I assume if we knock on in the play the ball or something like that then that would become a full penalty because there was no advantage. Which is weird that only after an error...

I'm surprised by Papalii's fitness. He always looked tired and unfit at the tigers but you expect him to go to another level at Penrith, but there he is huffing and puffing after his minimal impact and small minutes. It's hard to figure out what happened to him.

Warriors have a good side. Excellent props. They're a bit weak in the halves. If we can stay even on the play the ball speed I'd say we will do well, but I'm not as confident as some.

Luke Brooks was crap for us, what is there to do but observe that? I don't think the fans did that to him. We all hoped he would be better. Brooks' first game was his best until his 200th. He did not improve. Galvin is rough but shows a lot more promise than Brooks. You see him getting better...

I love how he's being played. I think he comes off just as precaution and in crucial moment could stay on and play the full 80 if needed. I don't like when he's off the field. Rock solid tackling and strong running. I'm nervous for the 10 minutes he's off the field. He also has his best moments...

Just like to pay tribute to our recruitment. Either Benji or Richo have really gotten it together. It obviously starts with luai, but may, hunt, turuva, Skelton, bird have all been excellent talent wise and in areas of great need, but all have that competitive edge and confidence that other...

I'd still like a bit more time with doueihi. The way he's started has been excellent, I just want to see him against better teams. the memories of recent years are hard to overlook. He looks much more complete this year, though.

He is very rough still. Some brilliant moments and some momentum killing moments. In thinking about his creativity and instincts, however, he is a pretty rare player. There's not many halves out there that have that ability to play that way, let alone teenagers. I still think katoa is the best...

We look clunky in the opposition 20 but seem to have enough talent to score points anyway. Hope it clicks soon. We made a lot of errors on 5th tackle and conceded many soft penalties and still managed to wrestle back the game... impressive. Hooker rotation is excellent at the moment. May is...
