For getting some consistency .
We need the same team running out for a few weeks.
But if we lost Kennedy , Dugan MUST stay at Centre now .
Renaldo to fullback and Nene to wing .
Imagine teams trying to defend a fit Wade with those two monsters outside of him , let alone an aerial assault

I’d love to see Ronny kick returning through the middle. I don’t know how he rates in other fullback attributes but that would bring some energy.

Played for QLD in that position

they got flogged as well

Yeah I remember that game .
But he did score a meat pie if memory serves .
Would love to see him there , IF circumstances played out .
But also know , he will probably end up in Duges centre position when he moves on

Breaking down the highlights:
0-6: BHU's try - sublime soft hands from Chad to pick up a great line run by BHU
0-6: Bad communication at the back. Chad and Duges just do enough to stop the try
0-12: Our scrum set pieces are really crisp. Kennedy fitting in nicely
0-18: Duges!
4-18: That right edge defence acting like they've all been spun around a thousands times and dropped in to defend... a mess
4-24: Sums up SJ and Chad's halves partnership. A nice little ingoal kick from SJ, all effort from Chad to bowl defenders out of the way and SJ gracefully cleans up for a maiden try and highlight reel finish
4-30: SJ should take a selfie with the goal post, which gets a TA recorded. SJ makes the most of the chance with nice work (misfooting Hiku) to buy time for our main man right now, Katoa, (who misfoots Hiku!) who dives over in the sexist of manners
4-34: Really nice inside work by Chad, BHU and a swag of bodies in motion to make space on the right edge, which is all Ramien needs
4-42: Great try by Royce... which Katoa ended up scoring. Nice hands on the inside by SJ, superb quick hands by Chad to land the ball in the perfect spot to help Katoa get over.

What the highlights didn't show:
A couple of bombed tries by the Warrior down the right edge
Warriors almost breaking through our forwards with good footwork - we just can't move sideways

Second in the comp for attack after the Roosters. Can't remember the last time we were that good in attack.

Absolutely terrible in defence. Can't remember the last time we were this bad.

very different Sharks outfit to what we're use to. I like we can attack better and we're more entertaining but need to spend the next month on defence and really tighten it up. I think the back line we had yesterday is what we run untill Moylan is back, if Moylan is out we just put Kennedy back and don't touch the edges anymore.

I get Brailey needed a rest, and he had a pretty decent cut on his face along wiht a cut from last week but we defn lacked direction when he came off. And I'm not sure hooker is Tracey's best position. Think I'd prefer we stick with 4 forwards on the bench, assume we'll revert back when Fifita is back in two weeks. Maybe Williams comes back next week and being dropped for a week is enough of a message for him?
