Apart from the obvious victory; there are some threads exploring these points in more detail.
**Happy**
1\. Brooks 40/20, clutch play, no fluke.
2\. Richards FG, one of the best adlib shots you are going to see and with such crucial timing.
3\. Lawrence try, capping off not only a good game from Rowdy but a quality 10 minutes where we put the game beyond Newcastle. It was perfect play against 12 men.
4\. Tedesco's passing game - very astute ball delivery, his input into the backline is superb.
5\. Richards goal kicking, difference between winning and losing in many games.
6\. Input from Bodene - good yards, good defence, being asked to play tight and in centres.
7\. Austin - I just think this guy is quality. He is up-tempo, defends well, takes dirty hitups, can pass and kick. Anasta is surely on borrowed time.
8\. Farah's defence - huge.
**Sad**
1\. Boyd knock-on, what the hell?
2\. Blair offload 77th minute. He is playing great footy this year, but oh gee what a moronic play when you are up by 7 with 3 to go.
3\. Anasta non-grounding. Despite being a clear torso grounding, in my opinion, only Anasta can throw up such a whole-hearted effort with such a dud result. Nobody can question his effort, but it is a special kind of "special" to take such a spectacular catch and then land on your head. If he leaves it for Teddy, I think Teddy is actually in-goal.
4\. re #3 Tedesco no help either. He needs to work on his calls, he seems to be making a habit of collecting his own teammates. Credit for being where the ball is, deductions for not letting your team-mates know what is going on.
5\. Sirro lasts, what, 5 minutes? Knock-on and then collected high. Knights should have been docked interchanges for that, considering we lose the player all match.
6\. Nofo well off the pace, time for a rest to get his knee right?
7\. Liam Fulton - the guy can't take a trick with head knocks and it is a concern not just for his career, but the new rules.
8\. Forwards quiet yesterday, Knights defence was dominating 2nd half and if not for 40/20 we don't get of our own territory. Hitups from kick return also struggling.
