Remember no one playing today is in our starting 13

neither is their team, their juniors obviously better than ours

True, but it’s a worry about our depth, that’s why I think a top 4 spot like some have mentioned is not going to happen.

Sad to say there aren't any backs putting theirs hands up to make any starting 17

Iro was good, but his only on train and trial
Jensen T was rubbish and his meant to be next in line

Lualua was named ahead of Jensen at one stage last year. Him and Iro both okay moments
Cini probably the pick of the backs
Was Jensen dropped ball at the end not Lualua pretty sure

My pick of the bunch was Hazelton, and that was well before his try.

Was it just the headgear or does he have a bit of Dan Stains about him?

Thought young Dykes went well at fullback considering the way the game went.

Pele made some errors but he impressed me with the improvement of his mobility, particularly in defence. Not far off the top grade now I think.

I found Wilton a bit disappointing. One of our better players but I expected more.

Finau looks like a prospect.

Zac Cini is a footy player. Worked hard but I really couldn't work out what position he was supposed to be playing.

Berrell was alright during his good times. I'm not sure whether his bad times were because of heat fatigue. A long way behind Brailey but a handy back up.

Considering how much we coughed up the ball I thought our defence was pretty good. New coaching staff starting to show there.

Think Cini was FB?

Wouldn’t have minded some more minutes for Wilton and Hunt (and Talakai if he didn’t eat head)

Lol just calling it as I see it? He has been bad today doesn’t mean I don’t want him in the utility spot come round 1….
Just a laugh mate. He could... should... struggle for a utility spot based on this and the all-stars.

Was just looking through the stats haven't had a chance to watch the game. The big improved stat was missed tackles. With only 46percent of the ball 23 missed to the Panthers 30 is interesting.

funny some will say Berrell played well. yeah tried hard, but his service was slow/messy & even awkward and he fumbled a number of times. first time I've seen him. commentators had wraps on him early on. saw the last 5 minutes and Woolford looked sharper and crisp out of dummy


we lack depth if that's what we have, scary.
Penrith were leaps and bounds ahead - especially in the depth ranks. their juniors & others are ready to rip in
shame some of the first graders didn't step up. Sean osullivan was all over us in the first half

but it's a trial of all up and comers - yep no one from starting 13 there. that will be the big test - next week

so braydon trindall will cop how many weeks for his shot?


oh and jess couhlon (spelling??) No.13 looks the goods
