What do you all think so far ?
Please consider these stats vs what Hieghno used to put in week in week out ,
Or compare with Fultons stats .

Its obvious he is ball player or a ball playing lock not a metres man . But once the injuries start coming and we do the shuffling of the halves he will slot straight in and do a good job . No more moving moltzen and farah ! he is not a #11

 

[swisstiger]

Gut feeling is not positive about him at the moment. I barely heard his name mentioned in the commentary and nothing he did really stood out for me.

We need more output from our backrowers. At least Fulton tackles anything that moves and takes a few hit ups.

Didn't see the same from Bwaith.

u wont hear much commentary with braith at #11 the game has slowed up and the bigger forward packs are winning the games so now braith is no 2nd rower

 

[jirskyr]

All I can say is his performance today was 100% better than last week.

Potter needs to put him on notice, pick up your effort and energy, or I'm benching you or even dropping you. The ball is now in his court. Straight to the point. He will either step up and perform, or be dropped. Either way, he needs to do better than he has starte 2013.

 

[Peaches]

I watched the game and Anasta seemed to play okay. He made a few tackles were he wasn't credited with making the play. He was also off for a while and come back on in the halves so that's why his stats would be a little lower too.

The balance of the team would be better with Blair at 2nd Row and Anasta at lock.
He is a born lock. He would give direction where Benji doesnt and fill in when the half goes missing. Anasta is going through a bedding in period where he is not the dominant person in the side and he just needs some time to come out. He will come good. Have faith as we are too quick to judge new recruits when they dont start on fire.
Different culture, different style of play. It does take time.

Who is complaining ?

After a post from roosterman , I was very keen to see what Braith would do for WTs ,
I never expected him to be a work horse , was more hoping he could bring his great hole running and ball playing into our game .

Since his work rate was seemingly low , I asked the forum a question , to see where the value is

Wow, those figures are almost Michael Ennis-esque in terms of going missing…. 😢

 

[barra]

I actually thought we went better when he was off the field.

So not sure where he will fit in now 😕

In the short term maybe in the halves if Miller is not 100%, which is a shame because it will push Benji into #7 and delay his #6 re-incarnation…

 

[flapjack]

He's a backrower that made 11 tackles the whole game. Then he comes out in the media saying other teams don't respect us because of our defense? He's a disgrace. The sooner Potter dumps him the better for this club.

 

[happy_tiger]

Gee , his last hit up of the game was 15 metres in my opinion

Doesn't say much for the other 4 😱pen_mouth:

Still prefer him off the bench for the last 60 minutes

 

[system]

I think he is a good work in progress. Transitioning from a playmaker and dominant playcaller to a side where he isn't and there is a young halfback.

Braith can't be a lock option until Miller grows into his role more IMHO.

When our spine gels our left edge will see some more ball and Braith will be a large part of that.

He will never be a powerhouse runner but we have BMM for that on the left edge

 

[simonthetiger]

14 position is looming for Braith.

No impact at all so far….....jury still out but so
far not so good imo.
