3 - Lolohea did well today, much improved and looked dangerous constantly.
2 - ET as usual, tackled everything that moved and plays smart always, slowing play when required, speeding up when required
1 - Woods, solely for backing up for 80 minutes after origin. Some crucial mistakes but still did better than most.

I thought Lawrence went OK for first game back. Masters went OK when he had a few touches.

Very, very poor from Ava & Sue. Nofo was rocks and diamonds. Eisenhuth &Twal solid again without being red hot. Tedesco was very out of sorts i thought, ran, passed and kicked almost always at the wrong time. Defensively was fair at best, but wasnt terrible.

Something else on teddy. As mosthere would know I've for years considered him to be superstar and along with losing Taupau was a black day for our club.
But apart from the miss on Uate he missed his opposite in the 1st half before Taylor bought him down. Those were the tackles he was making before he signed with Easts and don't reckon Robertson would've been happy with those little grubber plays either. Reminded me of my big bets whenI get lazy like backing them to win for $5 instead of taking the easy money with points start.

3 Lolohea looked dangerous with each touch
2 Tedesco tried his ringar off today
1 Niquama good involvement today when we lost two forwards

Agree about Tui. Manly looked a little tentative in moving up to tackle him - he did worry them. Positive signs ahead - In Ivan we trust!

I thought Elijah Taylor was fantastic, as was Tui. Marsters was solid too.

Brooks will have to get his passing game in order, or the young bloke from Qld. might pull his pants down.

Both Woods and Teddy were well and truly outplayed by the T brothers today.
Their rep aspirations may be on a slide ….. and it won't matter who they are playing for next year.

Tedesco will be a totally different player playing with the Rorters next season, much like Moses is now with Parramatta. Make no mistake, Teddy will be great again - anyone that thinks he won't is kidding themselves.

You may be right ….. at present the big T has him well and truly covered.
We may revisit this discussion this time next year.

Indeed! I imagine there will be room for both of them in the NSW side next year :wink:

Hi all, my first post,
I'm 100 % on the bus and looking forward to better days ahead.
I just thought that some better options would have helped today but there are definitely brighter days ahead.
I'm really like Eisunhuth and Twal , and remember that we were down to two on the bench after half time.

Welcome to the forum.There will be better times ahead

Thanks jadtiger
I really thought Tui showed good foot work today.
I really liked when we spread the ball today after looking pretty negative in the first 10 mins.
The young blokes bring good enthusiasm.
I think there were really good signs in attack today
The best teams are strong defensively but Ivan will be well aware of this.
Onwards and upwards My beloved Wests Tigers!

I'Ve been reading for a little while but not posting but I do reckon Ivan's the right man.
Looking forward to good days.
Let's ignore those idiots at the Daily Telegraph!
