It's good he's starting but I'd like to see him get continuous playing time in the same position to hone his skills accordingly

Balmain far superior talent wise, the inability to throw a cut out ball and stupid handling errors means it's 12-6 with ten to go in first half. Should be up by 3-4 tries

Big Johnny Tuipolutu takes an interception on the line 20 seconds before half time, runs 60m and offloads to the winger who scores in the corner. 16-6 HT

If the boys could hold onto the ball they'd be up by 40 by now. Handling errors into double figures already, as is penalties.

Good God this ref is atrocious. Can't go a day without him getting involved, not letting the game flow at all. 25-30 penalties called with 15 to go

Bears . Lots of bears fans here which is good

After the Bears have had over 100 hitups inside the Balmain 20m zone they could only score once. Strong defence, but Bears are pretty poor.
We finally hold onto the ball and Tuipolutu crashes over under the posts to put the game away. 22-6 with 5 to go

Final score 22-12. A pretty poor performance against a poor opponent. The forwards are the stars of this team. Halves are poor, backs pretty average. Our props are about the only candidates to step up a grade.
The defence is solid though, they defend well as a team and put a number of big hits on their opponents.
Aho and Tuipolutu the standouts

Wests Tigers then lost 6-4 to the Sharks in some.mystery comp. I'd guess u15s.
Scrappy game in wet conditions, a sideline conversion the difference

Looks like Dotoi is playing today for the Magpies.
I thought he bailed back to QLD? Glad he's still here.

Good to have him here. If he can hit the ground running there's a starting spot in flegg waiting for him. Centres in the Flegg trial were rubbish

Wests SG Ball just went down 34 to 26 based on NSWRL website. Pretty disappointing. Seems the same as last week, had a late comeback, but left too much to do.

Managed to catch second half of Balmain SG happened to be in area. Drop ballathon , by balmain however held up very strong defensively, which must mean their fit. Which again very impressive given the lay off they've had.
Hard to single players out given all the drop ball. Tuipulotu 16 looks like a prospect, potential Stefano vibe, his family was cheering him on from the side lines but the kid was having a real dig.
Saw a bit of tonny Sukkar who looks like could be a strong human.
Cathane Hill mini Laurie man the guy loves to get involved in attack always on the ball, plays in the middle a lot in D couldn't hear him talking much in D but gee he's involved a lot in attack and likes to push the pass.
Finley Nelsen looked good. Some if the other forwards looked strong too.
North's had bulk of possession in second half and only scored 1 try. Big hits from both sides.

Agree, probably will end up larger than twal tho. He seems likely to be in grade at some stage.
