I think we could do worse. Gives us another option in case one of the haves is injured too. Never know with SJ.

We all know Kennedy will be fullback
Morris rewarding the junior flock

Having Talakai, a big body on the bench who can fill that “backs utility” option that we had with Capewell is a bonus.
Let’s us swap out Williams for Billy M without too many unforced changes.
Forced changes means Dugan to FB, Nene in on the wing and Goodwin into Centre if Mulitalo is still unavailable.

Great result today. Still not at our best but we’re finding a way to get it done.

Fifita was immense today. Came on and scored a try and made a huge impact. He was so strong and powerful.
I know SJ was rocks and diamonds but he still set up tries at crucial times.
Brailey is getting better and better every week, love the 40/20 and the little kick in the in goal where Woods almost scored. He’s really starting to make a presence in this side and playing 80 mins.

Love Rudolf, Talakai and Hunt, gives us great go forward.

Have to do something about our missed tackles. Even though we only conceded 10 points today, I lost count how many missed tackles we had. Seemed to drop off so many times.

Our weak links are Moylan and Williams. Jack made some strong runs but still can’t hold the ball. Should have had a try for sure with better hands.

I don’t know what to do with Moylan.

Yeah, good on paper but I just saw press conference with Bomber and the way he was talking I don't think Williams is going anywhere. His only concern is if Will Kennedy is fullback or Duges.

Good win by the boys. Awesome 2nd half but the Titans were pretty rubbish. Good to see we didn't give them any 2nd half easy tries.
The old Fafita is back and most of the forwards played well. Chad's been playing well lately, off their good work.
Big test next week against the Panthers.

Bummer Moylan probably won't be there.
He normally rips them apart

How many runs did wade have tonight?
I honestly couldn’t count more than 5? I did zone in and out of the game though. So missed a bit.

Officially 3 for 22m and left the field with 8 to go

good win, take the two points;

first half nothing to write home about.
second half our shining light - kept them to nil, and scored 28.
sorry for stating the obvious!

but in the first half; when we were gifted time in their 20 we just looked flat at times, until the BHU try.

still waiting for the complete full 80 min. but will be patient;

loved the post game celebration; was much more hyped up on top of last weeks one; which was good also

The +\- between us and the tigers is almost identical. They’ve scored 1 more point than us but we’ve let in 1 less. Pretty impressive after 8 rounds. The 1 less point we’ve let in is enough for us to keep our spot above them this week... imagine if next week was the finals. You’d feel pretty gutted missing out by 1 measly conversion

he doesnt fit that titans team as they dont even know what they want from their squad

he will thrive at souths but yes, they have wasted their money

I must admit , enjoyed watching Fifita trampling him

I assume they will just stick him at prop and play Cam Murray at 13
He can make it work but I prefer him as a 13 and think they'd get more out of him there. Should have gone somewhere he can play 13 but nowhere could obviously match the offer.
Souths probably looked more attractive when they made the offer than they do now too
