Positive:

Liddle was excellent gets out if dummy half and a crisp passing game, defensive technique is first class. I’m not concerned about hooker if he can stay out of the injury ward.

Aloai was massive he’s our best forward. Has been all year.

BJ Leilua is a strike centre and one of the few bonafide first graders we have.

Luciano has clearly been an improvement over Matterson on a better cap number he delivers every week.

Nofa is a beast.

Brooks stepped up and delivered under pressure.
His overall game was solid but not spectacular has to lift.

Negative:
Douihei is not returning the ball and seems to not want collision. Missed Benji close to the line for an easy try due to lack of confidence.

Packer was poor defensively as was Eisenhuth they have no lateral movement and get caught out in the middle.

Talau has to get longer studs or not play BankWest games he ran with no confidence and slipped over on numerous occasions.
We need a new bench I don’t rate Reynolds, ET, Seyfarth should not be in the first team.

Garner gets overpowered way too easily defensively has to add muscle.

Madge has to upgrade the roster we just battle to beat any team and can’t sustain performances over 80 minutes.
 
Is Brooks a 5/8? A half? A hooker? I read to convert to a centre..?? If he is part of the spine, he needs to be a strong link. Period. When was the last time we spoke about his game reading ability? Or his taking a game by the scruff of the neck? Or even steering the team across the park for an entire game (let alone a season).
 
Good to see Liddle back. BJ actually looked better today.

It also re-enforced the need for significant changes.
ET is gone. Seyfarth is a CC player for the next couple of years. Packer, Reynolds and Mbye need to be shopped around.

McIntyre, Garner and Eisenhuth are depth players that should be looked at for the 21 when there are injuries.
 
Ikin said at halftime it is time for Benji to go, Seyfarth is no way better than Rowdy, our halves are useless, Benji got a try assist for a kick that was going to be a 7 tackle set only for a Foran touch.
How you can be 22-6 up and trail 28-22 is disgraceful, Madge is just as responsible as the players for his atrocious team selection, we are no closer to a top 8 team than we were 4 years ago.

Deadset rubbish. Probably our last win for the season. So probably should enjoy it for that reason....I guess.

A Wins a win. Roosters are depleted and there for the taking. Get over yourself.

Take a look around. Not good enough for 90% of the forum. But sure, single me out.

You love it ...( the attention ) ?
 
I am happy for Seyfarth. He turned up today and ran hard. He also made some hard hitting tackle. His try saver in the second half on the right where Leilua should have been was excellent. I like to see him in our 17 next year.

He is the same as Clark but Clark does it over more minutes.

Just my view but I believe he can become one of our enforcers. Someone gave him angry pills because that hit on the big prop hurt.

It takes confidence to step up and seize the moment. He played well today.

We've said this all year. He hasn't found that aggression.

Leila, J had a shocker. For example, the last Canterbury try came from him failing to lock up the ball in a tackle. He is huge and lazy. His brother is tireless.

Welcome to the WT!😢
 
Why are we so useless with short kick-offs, have we got the ball from one this season? We kick short and gift the opposition the ball and field position, they kick short and get the ball back.
 
Seyfarth is not scaring anyone, let him go. Same with ET.

I’d love to know what’s gone on with Blore. I saw so much potential in him.
