Not many positives today but geez I like the look of Laurie, kid has a big heart and some great plays in him.

I know he hasn’t broken a game open yet but has looked really composed and there is some great signs of things to come. I would like to see him sniffing around the ruck a bit more looking for an offload but otherwise very happy to have him in the team.

Are you saying we have the ability to offload? Haven’t seen it yet....

How long before he’ll want out you reckon?

Trouble is mate,the rest of the TEAM have to have an idea of what to do,otherwise DL will be burnt every week and then probably look to go to a club that will appreciate his abilities...

Haha...I thought the exact same thing. Matterson has given me PTSD.

Mate hate to say it but that thought crossed my mind while watching the game.

He handed in his notice at full time 😂

He has exceeded all my expectations. He is one of the toughest players on the field and the smallest. Some of our other players should be ashamed when they see the smallest player on the field give more then them.

On a positive note, we are just 1 win away from The Top 8!

He’s a good player
Real live wire
God knows what he’s doing here ...

He will be a superstar , if we don’t start playing finals soon unfortunately he won’t be here for long.

It’s scary that we are 2 weeks into the season and a rookie for the 2nd year in a row is already looking like being our best player by a mile.

This shows how bad our squad is.

Laurie has been brilliant for a rookie on a team getting thumped. He is catching bombs, running with strength, making tackles, putting efforts in for the full 80mins. Can’t wait until we get out of the rut and turn things on. He is going going to be brilliant over the next 3 seasons for us.

Absolutely mate, his defence is the one area that has surprised me the most, really good technique and commitment to the contact.

I know Morris stood him up today for a try but guaranteed 9/10 fullbacks would have been burnt by Morris in that move.

Laurie is a great signing..

Even when Morris stood him up he showed emotion unlike the rest of the bludgers on the left

 

[Madge]

Broke Teddy's ankles..

 

[WT2K]

He has something special. When he has the ball in his hands, you think, what's he going to do next.

DL was great
Stefano was great
Liddle was great


Tamou and Joffa tried but were not supported
LL tried but was alone on that edge

Mbye gets a pass

And that’s about it

Edited to add twal and garner as also a pass mark, maybe a bit more

He is a livewire in attack. He is safe under the high ball. Like you , I’m definitely surprised by how much he punches above his weight in defence. What a great player and a great buy.
