I feel the opposite.
Even with 3 minutes to go charging up field and involved .
Good signs for fitness and mobility , whilst maintaining power.
He's in for a good season

I wouldn't say he was behind the pace, I'd say he looked like a guy who hasn't played consistent footy in a long time, played more minutes than he has in a few years and played the majority of the first half with an 80/20 possession split the other way

That's roughly 8.5m per carry and 46% of his metres came post contact and a 96.8 Tackle Efficiency

it was a bad game by all.
andrew looked fitter. needs to drop a lil more weight i think the way the game is going
maybe shorter minutes aswell.
i think he still has value to add

Def looked fitter but you could tell his knees are cooked. Someone put in a grubber towards the end of the game and he kind of just jogged/ambled after it. Couldn't help but remember that game against St George where he toed the ball on and beat everyone there for a try.

Of course, and I love the big guy. Just saying that while it's great he's trimmed down we shouldn't get too carried away.

Mmm, it was more than just being older. Tolman is a year older and holding together a lot better (touch Wood)

Maybe I was just stoked to be watching footy again, but I enjoyed the game. Was close all the way, some solid defence for a preseason game. Plenty of passion.

Started to get a bit or feeling into it when Walker got elbowed by Harris but it died down pretty quick

Looking at you Fifs.
REFS TO LAUNCH PLAY-THE-BALL BLITZ
Stand by for a blitz on play-the-ball penalties in the opening round of NRL action this weekend.
Referees bosses have warned clubs that sloppy and incorrect play-the-balls will be one of their main areas of interest in the first few weeks of the comp.
With the new rules speeding up the game to never-before-seen levels, the play-the-ball is seen as an area that could give defences vital micro-seconds to regroup.
Attacking players must actually touch the ball with their foot as they roll it behind them, not just go through the motions.
Players have been warned - but more than one front-rower is certain to forget in the heat of battle.
