Austen was the only player that looked like creating anything, Brooks was poor,but that probably was due to the lack of quality players around him. The Chooks were very average for most of the game, we were so lucky they were not on their game.
As for Anasta, for me it is a no brainer, I would take Austen any day and if he was not available I would go for Moses.

Must agree with Lakra and the others - Anasta is doing nothing for us at all. You only have to look at his stats - they are embarassing. Have a look at every other NRL side and tell me one 5/8 who performs at the level of Anasta. Potter needs to stop selecting him on what he did 5 years ago (although that wasn't that much either) and cement Austen or even Sirro, and lets get on with building a halves combo with Brooks.
On the Roosters game … we missed all our injured players and the subs just didn't have the class to match it. We had nothing in attack to trouble the Roosters (Anasta certainly wouldn't have helped). If the Roosters were on their game we would have been beaten by 50\. My concern is more that in the last few weeks we seem to have lost that fire and mongrel in the pack that was giving our backs the time and space - maybe Gavet and Farah being out? We lost the wrestle in the ruck way too much and they got their quick play-the-balls and rolled through us too easily. This is why Austen and Brooks struggled a bit.

I would stick with Austin and give Anasta another week off and hopefully we start winning consistently and I never have to see him play again in a Tigers jumper
