Not expecting much from Latu for a few weeks but how is he holding up 1st game back?
He’s very rusty, but as you say it can be expected after being out for so long.
The big concern is his kicking game, I’ve never seen him put in a decent kick.
Only players who are busting tackles are Feledy and Zak Clarke. They are both naturally talented attacking players, but both struggle to defend well.
 
Half time 20/6 down . Woeful lack of intensity in defence . Young Luialli woeful on the wing. Sugary ok in the centres. Latu just needs games as he’s ok. Sullivan not sighted . Just passes it. Forwards are terrible. Jets should be in front by more. So far Da Silva nowhere near as good as Simpkin, who we let go

His kicking game isn’t the best, he normally hoops it / has a lead foot when it comes to finer touches as well. His running, defense and ball playing is his main strength bag.

We need a massive focus on the kicking game for both Galvin and Latu Fainu over the off season.
I’m a Talyn Da Silva fan, but he’s having a shocker.

Simplekin reached his ceiling and it was bearer level on a single story.
TDS will climb to the penthouse eventually.
 
Good effort in the second half, Miller’s strong ball running a feature.
Sullivan was ok in the 2nd half with limited time and space to play with and Naden had a really good second half at fullback.
Tim Johanssen continues to impress with his work rate and high intensity.
Lobb scored a nice try from another good leap and played ok.

Pretty fair summary. Huge difference when Miller was on the field and charging onto it.

I can't question Sullivan's effort today. 1 desperate try saver on our line. Made another good tackle in the 1st half when the winger was breaking away. With the ball he was trying hard in the 2nd half but lacked another real threat outside of Naden (while Fainu was off). TDS did not help him either. Seemed to go short to forwards or away from him when we were inside the 20.
