His play the ball speed alone can change the momentum.

Having watched the replay Im sure there is a moment in the second half where Wade is being directed on where to be and where to run around the middle third by our Trainer. I know it’s common place , but not for Wade and seems to me he is being re-trained on his role.

I mentioned a few weeks ago Wade needed to re-invent his style of play… he looked good today running it through the middle. I think that is where he could be most effective through the middle with an off load , taking to the line and distributing when it’s on…

Fitz definitely looked shifty and unsettled when asked the question.. Something tells me Wade is going to have some work to do make it back. I recall some off-season questions to Fitz about Wade’s captaincy and he was was less then convincing about his willingness to back Wade. We all hope Wade...

I think if Wade has a future here we need to redefine his roll. He just doesn’t offer what is required of an edge forward these days- he’s lost a yard or 3 , crams his outside men, struggles to break tackles and lately his left foot kick has been largely in-effective. Perhaps he does have...

How do we fit Wade in when williams is back? Does Fifita drop out ?

Fitzy talks a lot about what players do off the ball. I get a sense he sees and likes what Connor does in our backline to make the whole backline better. It may be in defence of attack or both, but if he improves out backline as system then I am happy for him to get a fair crack there…. even...

Yep, has to be one of the fittest in the game.

Looks to me like Moylan is a bit confused as to what his role is with Nicho on the field. I’m confident Fitz will sort that out and Moylan will work into being more involved…. We are 2 games …

I’m going to call a massive year from Hunt. I think he is just the player we need to win the battle of the interchange and by mid season we’ll see him as critical to our forward pack dominating other sides. Seems to have the right temperament and desire ( and built like an F’ing tank ) Flame...

Pleased for him tonight. If he could do that every week then he would be in the 17. Just don’t think he can play like that week in week out though

I hope that’s exactly how it goes

Heard from a pretty good source yesterday that Brailey will have his hands full keeping his spot over this bloke

I actually like his grubber near the line….He just needs to get better at it and force the repeat set. Think his long kicking game needs lots of work. Lacks direction and effect. Kinda kicks like my 7 year old where he holds the the ball way out it front and drops it on his foot from a height...
