Joe is definitely a giddy kipper, I try to be the opposite for a good balance.

That's the auto correct cutting in again. From what I have watched Sam must be very close to being dropped.

I did smile listening to the commentary bilko... With about 10 mins to go one of you said something like, "Lots of time left, no need to panic". The pair of you were panicking all game..!!!!!!!

Really enjoyed the commentary though.. You can't fake enthusiasm and passion...

Exactly how many of Sam's games have you watched so far?

While he's hardly torn the league apart in the same way as he did with Super League (to be expected with the far superior defence) he's set up a bag full for Fisiiahi who's currently the top try scorer in the NRL and scored a fantastic solo try this week against the Tigers.

Tomkins has been great in attack and suspect in defence. No surprises there to be honest.

Move him to stand off and he'll kick on and cement his place as one of the best players in the world.

I've watched all the NZ games so far and would agree. He's dropped 2 high balls so far leading to tries, but also scored a couple, assisted with LOADS and last week made a brilliant tackle over the line preventing a certain try.

He was calling for Tomkins to be dropped at the end of last season. Think he must have spilled his pint or something

Does it matter whether Sam is tearing the NRL apart or not? He's only there as a stop-off on his way to Rugby Union. From our POV, the guy is gone.
