I thought Papalii was awesome, seems to have found the groove I was looking for at the start of the season. He will only get better for us which is a great sign, again Liam Henry’s impact was worthy, and I agree with the Sorro comments. Also agree many others did their job and could have been given votes. Very good team effort
I agree. It was probably the best game I seen him play this year.
Actually the forward pack was amazing. Everybody was damaging and pushed go forward. Leota, Smith, Henry, Eisenhuth, Garner, Papali’i, Kenny, were all putting in the hard yards.
I have to also mention Schneider. He did an amazing job in the middle against the Bunnies. His kicking game was sharp and made some incredible defensive efforts.
After Dylan, I gave my other votes to Garner and Sorro. But agree our entire forward pack deserved a group vote.
I am kinda annoyed with myself for not recognising Kenny the last few weeks, his giving Yeo style consistency each and every week, and Mitch is by far one of the toughest guys in the NRL.
I though his and Dyl’s captaincy showed us that the years post Yeo’s retirement (and transition to our coaching roster), will still be years we are contenders, I do hope that that day is a long time away though.
All that said I can’t begrudge any player earning a point.
Kenny is developing into a better leader. You could see him directing plays from dummy half and making sure the boys were in the right place.
I wonder when Yeo does decide to hang up the boots, we see Kenny move to Lock. I think over time he would be a good fit there.
