Hallelujah Defence!

Very impressed with way young Suli numbered up in defence all day . A great sign for the future

The kid can defend. One of the toughest positions in the field to defend and he is making a great fist of it.

We have a good un' here methinks.

I love the fact that he just doing a job and doing it well. He doesn't have the look of a flash in the pan.

Very hard to put down, decent speed.

Centre is definitely his best position for now.
 
Brooks did well in defence, particularly after a couple of weeks off. Hit hard, good reads and even when he was bumped off he stayed on his feet and recovered enough to have a second crack.
 
Great defence today, I used to hold my breath everytime the other team spread it wide but now I have a lot more confidence. Ivan has come along way in fixing something that JT couldn't do in 2 years in just 3 weeks.

So far this season it shows why he was given that big contract, has a huge potential.

Mckillrick on morris was a corker.

No way was that a penalty. Refs have gone soft. Even the commentators were saying it was fine.

Fox commentators were saying that you lift legs and you get penalised. When did that rule come into effect? That was a cracker of a tackle. Wasn't past horizontal.
 
Morris played for the penalty. When Jackson made a similar tackle earlier in the game, it was a cracker apparently.

Noticeable improvement in a very short time. Loving it.

Indeed, it makes you wonder how Cleary can fix up our achilles heel in just 3 weeks when Taylor couldn't do squat about it in over 2 years!

It's as good as a tackle can get: aggressive, stopped him dead, forced the ball loose. I believe Morris faked the post-tackle injury to cover his dropped ball and add to the milking of the penalty. He was on his feet quickly after the touch-finder.

But it's ridiculous, if you get lifted all you need to do now is allow your top-half to face down and they'll call it for dangerous.

Cleary's brand of holy water seems to work miracles in comparison to Jason's brand. Wouldn't it be funny if Cleary-coached Lebanon team gives Aussie team a run for their money.

Lebanon vs Australia, 11 November 2017, Sydney Football Stadium

Struth it is being played on the day that Whitlam got knocked off anything could happen - may God save the league prayer group because nothing will save the Kangaroos!

Cleary has quite as Lebanon coach to focus on the Tigers.
 
It looked to me the players supposedly on the outer Kasiano, Eastwood, Reynolds helped us win that game. Honestly one of the worst games of football I have seen this year great to get the win but if we don't improve against the sharkskin we will get belted
