Thought BHU deserved a shout this week. He looked like the forward we've been asking for, with really strong carries.

One of his good games
Lacks consistency not talent

Probably another one who's been under an injury cloud more than we've known

Quite possibly, that is often a hidden factor. We don't report some of the major injuries if we can get away with it, so definitely no idea how the niggles are.

 

[snowman]

ran as hard as i have ever seen him, one of the few who can hold their head high

 

[Gards]

Strong carries all game and prob one of his best defensive performances (statistically speaking at the least)

Just gotta watch his minutes - 20 mins or so in the first half is about right IMO (he played 22 mins)

Has prob turned into more of a worker than a Fifita type dynamic forward than we expected but in that has become more reliable and less erratic though he did at least manage 2 offloads (same as Rudolf)

Fitz wants the forwards playing a simple no fuss role - it makes sense all things considered and I am ok with that but feel we now miss a big Fifita style forward player that has a bit of ball playing and unpredictability about them.

McInnes is not big and he certainty has been more of a battering ram that a creative forward for us.

Can't have it all I spose but I would certainly rather have say a Sam Kasiano on the bench than another vanilla forward that does the same job as the bloke he replaced

We have some good attacking lanes on the edges but up the guts and around the ruck certainty isn't one of them and that works in the oppositions favour

Our best forward to date

once again
sorry guys
I watched the game on silent
BHUs clear regather of the ball, it was deemed a knock on???
was that the call - a knock on? looked like he took control when gathering into his chest and no bobble whatsoever.

but curran did similar later on in the game - exact same - play continued???
and a warriors player dropped the ball at the ptb and sutton allowed it to continue> a shark player at dummy called it out but nothing happened. play continued for the warriors.


just trying to make sense
seeing so many different interpretations in the NRL competition these days.

 

[Gards]

Was a very slight bobble (roll?) on the ground kinda back (little forward?) into his chest as he tries to regather- hard to to be sure, those are usually going against the bloke with the ball this season. Good effort by the big fella though late in the game

BHU was really strong tonight

you're a derrick

he has been **** this year apart from yesterday

nikora and rudolf have been streets ahead of him

I was going to say.. uele has been extremely underwhelming so far this year apart from yesterday

 

[jocktheshark]

I think he's better off the bench , quick quick for a prop with good feet , bring him on when he can do some damage in a tiring middle .

agree

Last year seemed better with Hunt starting

 

[Super Impose]

Was all ok toward the end there ?

Stayed down at one stage and his second stint was short .

Great kick off returns and post contact work ..

 

[Proud Shark]

He was fantastic last night.

 

[Sevshark]

Last year, before he got injured, BHU was the form prop in the comp.
Last night looked like a step back in that direction for mine.

 

[beaver2233]

Thought he also had a very good first stint. Conceded 1 or 2 linebreaks when he went off and Hunt came on.

 

[Thresher]

beast

 

[MMsharks]

well done BHU
brilliant first stint.


now repeat that
