3-2-1 3 2 1 vs Raiders

Can I just give Doueihi 2 shouts here- his ability to cut off attacking sweeps gets better every week. Canberra wingers barely saw the ball because Doueihi was up in the centre's face before he could move it on.

And that run through the gap was a thing of beauty. MORE OF THAT. At his size, at good angles, it's like having another mobile back rower. Centres don't like tackling that.


Bula looked off all game last night. The efforts were there, but nothing was really sticking.

Sione might be outplaying Fonua Pole right about now- but both have really stepped up this season. Fonua's defence isn't so much a problem anymore.

Latu is going to be amazing. Sam Fainu plays so much better with Latu beside him too.

3. Latu Fainu
2. To'a
1. Luai
 
3 - Luai (great effort to back from Wednesday)
2 - Tyrell May (highest run metres of forwards)
1 - Latu (immediate spark to our side)

HMs to AD, Toa, Samuela and Sione
 
It’s amazing how much Luai’s form has lifted since the dufus wearing the 6 left. It still boggles my mind that he had to defer to him for so many games. A 4 times premiership winning half deferring to a 19 year old who’d done nothing in the game was just plain weird, imo.
Luai has completely fallen off a cliff and has improved, but is so far off his usual standards. I hate that germy narcissist, but maybe I hate Benji more for enabling him

But to me that's bad coaching why pander to a 19kid

Remember Batemans blow up when he said Benji was over enthusiastic re the kids and critical of the senior players. Maybe there was something to that after all ?
Perhaps Benjis been focusing on the juniors coz they have no point of comparison about good/bad coaches, but their managers do !

Yes and it's a learning curve for Benji as long as hy improves and learns

But I do believe he can become a very good coach
