Man im pumped after that game. There is so much wrong with this team, especially defensively, but that can be easily fixed with the right defensive coach. But what has me excited is today we finally saw what our attack looks like with 2 halves that play straight. For 2 years we have fumbled around with halves that cant ball play and cant play straight. Today in the 2nd half, we saw a completely different vibe with the team from the first set of 6 with Jock at 7 and Latu at 6. That is the first time in 3 years we have seen Latu play 6 on the left, the spot he played all his juniors. If you have doubts about what he did today, go and watch again closely and just look at the space he created for outside men by really subtle body movements. The kid is the best young 6 the game has produced on the last 10 to 15 years. His outside men are going to love him. Once he gets game time and confidence, he will take this club to the top. I have followed him since he was 15. This guy is better than any junior out there. Today he took Penrith apart after having played no footy all year, and no games at 5/8 in 3 years.....ok, so taking Penrith apart is a stretch, but im excited, so forgive me.
