Well our novice FB didn’t do too bad did he. Outstanding performance and Holmes and Hughes who come in for some stick were outstanding.
Get a bit of a run together now with some very winnable games next 3 with hopefully a full complement of players to choose from .

Yeh I agree, I thought they were allowed far more time in the tackle than us. We were quicker to clear the ruck than them all night, but still penalised. I thought O’Donnell played well tonight. A bit of a headache for Lammy next week regarding full back, but a good one for a change.


Not sure what the headache is, Moylan without any shadow of a doubt - I see McIntosh as a squad strengthener, can’t see why a lot of people seem to think he has a place in the starting line up

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.

Well that was fun :)
So many positives.
- Defence is back.
- Lockie playing his best game this season.
- My man Kia OD 80 minutes of unbelievable energy and quality. I’d love to see his stats and distance covered.
- Holmes showing his best.
- Halton, Trout and Norman all now showing the benefits of their extra SL exposure lately and great signs for the future.
- Amone just immense and I’m still shouting “Go Tom, GO !!”
- Asiata showing just what a difference he makes both ways. An extra halfback we have really missed.
- Davis very, very solid, Dwyer raising our attack to a whole different pace.
And then there’s Super Matty Moylan.
Put him back to 6 I said. Reform what is the best halfback combination in SL I said.
Well, between A Lam’s trust and vision of what he can allow Moylan do from the back, and Moylan’s ability to glide around the field and appear to be in two or more places in each attacking play, I now don’t see him moving from their for the foreseeable future. With McNamara doing nothing wrong, and Asiata playing like a 6 at the highest level, he is lethal. His ability to be so much involved in the attack from fullback was amazing to watch. I watch the game again today, and the play before looping pass to Hanley, he was literally on the left touch line at the point of the tackle. Next second he is gliding in the right side and giving that ball. His defensive positional play and coolness under a high ball complete the picture.
Once O’Brien is fit, A Lam has some thinking to do, but until then, if Asiata stays fit, Moylan stays at fullback for me.
Overall our game pace in attack and steel in defence bodes really well.
I can hardly wait to see us with Ipape back, Dwyer interchange, Mulherne back………
Top six, we will need to be very good from here but game on.

Any player who can play in a certain position is an option. Mcintosh is another option to allow Moylan to go back into the halves, if that is what Lammie wants him to do. The way he is playing at full back, it may not happen. I doubt we let a winger who was a regular in the team to leave, for is replacement to be sat in the stand every week.

In A Lam we trust Leyth NZ.
Happy days that we are now debating where we play people, not who we can play.

Well the winger he has replaced was going to be sat in the stands, we’ve got a younger, probably cheaper and certainly more versatile version who if he gets his chance may take it the same way Hanley has

It’s a squad game as we have had to prove this season, for me he waits his chance

I'll add some praise for Hughes too, who looks like someone has had a word saying, look you're a big tall lad, get some offloads into your game and so he has along with his positioning not getting in the way of others sometimes.

Interesting result between wire and Salford and kr Wigan, so be an good insight into where we are over the next few fixtures

Why on earth would we move Moylan back into the halves, after his recent performances. Moving him to 6 will not only limit the number of attacking plays he gets involved in, it also exposes the weakness of his one on one tackling. Could you see him making the try saving tackle that McNamara made just before the Amone break?

We let Briscoe go because he wasn't going to get into the team, likely taking up more cap space than McIntosh does and unlikely to be given a contract next year, so would be wrong to stand in his way. McIntosh will get a chance at some point, whether it is full back, wing or centre but he'll have to be patient.

Any unforced changes to our backline in the next week or so would be foolish.

I am not saying we should move anyone or am I saying Mcintosh should play, they are just options that we now have which we didn’t have before.

Another thing I forgot, I did appreciate the playing of ABBA's Waterloo at the end of the match too
