OFFICIAL Blake Austin [Discussion]

Moses had another great game tonight. Those who were doubters must now understand why the Club identified him as our 5/8\. Austin just had a bad game tonight but has played well all season. In saying that, Moses is a special player and Austin is not at his level.
 
Austin is a GOOD player but he embarrassed himself tonight
Unforced errors.. Moses was top dog for sure

I think the waiders were a bit overwhelmed actually as it was a must win game for them.
They dont get those tries and whole team would have looked worse than what they did

THISSSSSS !!

Especially the ones who laughed and joked when we said he just needed the time to show his class !

Brooksy has to lift his game though. Way to inconsistent within games for my liking. Second year syndrome ?
 
i wouldntake Austin back in a heartbeat. repect his attitude big time.

Im on the record on the Moses believer. Again his defense is greatly improved and his heart is tremendous.

Watch at his willingness to hit hard and relentless work ethic.

he will be great.
 
Moses is a true five eighth who has an excellent passing game and who can use his speed and elusiveness at the right moment. While not a strong point yet, you can't fault his willingness or toughness in defense either. I was never a huge fan of Austin as, to me, he was a bit selfish and couldn't organize as a good No. 6 should. There is no questioning his effort or ability to sniff a try though.
 
Not just tonight but seeing the vast improvement in Moses' game the last month or so means letting Austin go was undoubtedly the right thing to do. He and Brooks have looked far more comfortable recently
 
Most of you guys are off your heads. yes Moses is improving quickly, i rate the guy as much as anyone but letting Austin go was not a good decision.

Using one poor game to try and prove your point is fairly ordinary, makes us look like a dick of a fan base, coming all but last but we are too good for the buy of the year. Get real.
 
I think we did the right thing letting him go.
Purely because of his haircut now I can't take him seriously he needs to see a doctor about that

Austin is a good player in his own right but tonight was one of those nights where things never really clicked for him, the air swing at the ball with the line wide open in the second half summed it up, as Moses was jolly on the spot to dive on the ball.

Not to mention winning a couple games and discussing whether or not we're premiership contenders next yr. Look, i understand when its a tough yr, wins can feel euphoric. And yes i agree this side has ridiculous potential. But lets try and not get too carried away.

Agreed.

Other fans must seriously be laughing at this crap.
 
I really like Austin & am glad he's found a happy home at the Raiders.
BUT - I was sitting beside a Manly fan at the game tonight and we spent the whole time laughing at how much of a ball hog Austin is - 99.9999999% of the time he'll dummy regardless of the situation.

Agree with both.

And yes, tonight's win made me feel euphoric. I'm already watching the replay. And loving it.
