He was definitely there.

How do you rank our props

1. BHU
2. Toby
3. Hunt
4. Finucane (moves to prop every game)
5. Kaufusi???????
6. Hazelton
Hard to say definitively as not all middles play the same role
I wouldn’t expect Kaufusi being picked ahead of Finucane, McInnes, Rudolf, BHU

Williams (current form) maybe picked ahead
Hunt would depend on role needed
I could imagine a scenario he misses out to Graham I guess, but I think the other 6 above would have to be fit

At this stage hard to imagine Hazleton or Colquhoun named but Kaufusi out

Feels like this bloke gets bagged just for the sake of it.

Part of the reason he might not get noticed is that he doesn't really do much wrong

I notice him though, makes some good carries and his defense is solid, low error rate and doesn't have a discipline problem

Not one of our frontline premier front rowers like a BHU but he doesn't need to be

People saw we signed a young forward & wanted a Fifita. Can't accept Oregon is more a Tolman.

I was also there .

Unlike Kafusi , Jack certainly made his runs & tackles count.

Lets see how Kafusi goes against the Warriors pack .

At the ground, I thought he was one of our best with some strong hit ups. I didn’t watch the replay on tv or look at the stats, but that was just the impression from the stands. Maybe his carries have a bit more oomph up close. Also I think he was looking to offload quite a bit? (my memory could be wrong there)

Can't believe this bloke didn't single-handedly carry us to the win...

Having said that, 7 runs for 57 considering his minutes if kinda pox

Solid in defense for the most part though

Needs to find a bit of aggressiveness and leg speed , nor sure he's a starter when we have a fit squad .

He definitely needs to be dropped when BHU returns.

For this blokes size and power, it's a real shame he hasn't stepped up. Went missing, Rudolf upstaged him.

Did one of those so unnecessary flops to give the Bros a set restart before their first try...........just so frustrating

He was before their second try.
It was Nicho and McInnes who did it before their first.

A 40/20 before their third.
McInnes inattention at marker allowing Egan line break before the next.
Ronaldo penalty then two errors before their fifth.
Probably similar instances in leads ups to their other few too

Any time someone gives opposition easy field position our tryline defence collapses very soon after.
We can score just as easily as we leak but only if we earn ourselves into position to.

I thought both Kaufusi and McInnes flops only get blown due to crowd noise though. Those happen multiple times every game without whistles, AFB and Ford both got away with worse efforts for Warriors. We were ****, but stuff like that certainly doesn't help, and we need all the help we can get. The Kaufusi one actually really annoys and I wish refs did blow it every time but that wasn't the time to start.

Ahh second try. But yes its just so lazy, actually so unnecessary if yo were really lazy you wouldn't even bother putting in the effort to flp down. The moment i saw it i just thought 'jeez here comes a restart....and bam!'

Where the consistency tho , i hate them but i see 20 a game with no consequences but then out of no where BAM ! someone gets a penalty . Bloody frustrating .
