Girls are growing the game at its roots across the juniors and good to see the club growing at the top level.

Favouritism.

Yet Stefano Utoikamanu made it again this year over Terrell May.

I certainly wish that Penrith could not bust our line for 30 minutes in the first half that you refer to, as going into half-time 6-2 would have been a lot better than the 18-2 that it was. As for our edge forwards, they did very little to help our go forward, which meant us basically always...

Hopefully the inclusion of Hunt and a possible change up of the middle rotation can bring better results. I didnt understand it when his seemingly effective use was altered, first to come on late against the donkeys, then starting, and dropped when those changes failed, but happy to see...

Apparently this Sunday will be the first match that our spine has started together, so I hope that it all begins to gel and stay clear of injury so they get to grow as a unit. Of course, our forwards, including Api from dummy half, will need to do better in laying some kind of platform for them...

I, and I expect others don't see Samuela as a 13, rather, we want someone with mongrel at prop. Again, I/we don’t necessarily want him to play there, but if WT cannot get a decent one that brings that, then getting a good left edge option allows us to shift him infield.

2 changes for fullback is okay, because it is a prime position, but also shifting Skelton to the other side of the field as part of it, which in turn breaks up an edge combination that worked effectively the week prior, is bewildering. Then there is To'a, who may as well be wearing a sling in...

I want to see Samuela with Taylan on the edge first, but am not adverse to him shifting to prop and providing a bit more mongrel in the middle if there is another edge option.

I think Benji needs to sort out plenty regarding his utilisation of all 3 front spine members and even moreso now that he has brought Doueihi into the lock role. Taking Latu off late in yesterday's match would not have been my choice.

After reading this I note that it only took you 4 days and a few words from Benji in the post-match press conference to lose a lot of faith. Mind you, I too am bemused at Benji choising to play like Penrith against the panthers and expecting a different result.

I still haven't seen the Titans match, but from reading here and the scoring stats, our left edge clearly worked well together and won us the match. Meanwhile, Staines who has been good, had one of those afternoons one wants a hole to hide in. An afternoon that would not likely be repeated again...

Wow, just wow.

Maybe he shouldn't have sent it up as a try in the first place and it wouldn't have been given.

He had his hands there, though I thought the camera on his right clearly showed that if anything, his left hand was forcing it sideways rather than downwards.

I don't see any point in not letting a kid spend 7/8 months becoming more of a man, including a full pre-season in the top squad before his first exposure to near NRL level in the opening trial.

Wholeheartedly agree, and regardless of the replacement cupboard being relatively bare, anything is better than a bloke that may as well be wearing a sling.

To'a basically being a passenger waving his hands around in defence did not help.

For the first dozen or so minutes, sure, but we had slowly gained field position from then on and were well and truly back in the arm wrestle before Tu'itupou ruined it.

I can cop the Skelton one, as he shouldn't have been put in the position in the first place. Their opposites were numbered up in defence and already in their faces, so Latu should have taken the hit-up on that one, as the shift wasn't on.
