What a carve up …... this guy has HUGE potential and can defend as well ,probable the replacement for Fulton great minutes and game get named next week no worries rest Fulton another week.
 
Very good game by Akauola, for mine he shall be on the 'must resign' list.
With each game he is getting better, he is very dangerous runner and can offload like Mateo. Interesting choice for MP when Sironen and Sue recover :slight_smile:
 
Sironen has no chance. He doesn't have that edge/X factor. He also doesn't offer anything that these boys can.
 
Was he better than Fulton would have been ?

As for Sirro I still think he is just as good an option but Akauola was great.
 
His kicking game is cack.

Don't re-sign

:slight_smile: just kidding, he had a massive game.

Looks like he could also put some more weight on and have evEn more impact with his hit ups…
 
I said a couple of weeks ago this guy has it all over Gavet.

That being said, his one on one miss of Hayne needs to be addressed.
 
Really good game. The only blemishes were the miss on Hayne for his second try, but let's be honest, Hayne has made plenty of players come up clutching air over the years, and putting boot to ball on the last tackle. Otherwise he's a powerhouse. Not the most solidly built player, but geez he is strong and has an excellent offload.

Looked to pick up some sort of cork from the look of it. Hopefully he's right to go against the Titans as it looks like we'll be missing Gavet for a few weeks.
 
How good was it seeing Peats absolutely jarred by him. I mean, I have no problem with Peats but I just love seeing our forwards smash people.
 
Been raving about this guy for weeks, he is a very serious footballer.

It only took me ten minutes of seeing him live to be convinced, im shocked his name wasnt being talked about by all these reserve grade followers.

It has been. We have been talking about him since the 2012 NYC Grand Final, when he killed it.

He was also very good in his one first grade game last year.

The issue in the past has been about fitting him into a role. Like Blair he is most effective in a dominant pack. Last year he would have struggled IMO.

Fair enough, ive only been back on the forum this year, in that time he has hardly been mentioned.

I suspect his layback attitude puts people off.

I saw him in the stands at the Sharks trial, he sat there with headphones on the whole entire game. I couldnt stop looking at him, he had this extremely relaxed confidence like he was either a complete ass or someone very special.

I now have my answer.
