John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

Probably because he comes off the bench perfectly and makes tiring forwards look like absolute fools. I think we have found our hooker when hodgo retires... :thumbsup

Smart play from Williams at least to know he was offside. We look so much better when we spread the ball and run it, why are we constantly allergic to it?

Sutton has a great motor.

Bum average start but showing our strength now.
Need to hit 40 and keep them to single digits.

I’ve got to applaud Lui and Papa in that half. They came on and just totally dominated the middle.

They are wrapping us up nicely in the middle to stop out offloads.
We are to slow in offloading.

Expect points almost any time we are in their 20.

If they don't then I don't know what they're watching.

I've got him above Horsburgh, Young, Lui, and level pegging with Guler.

How good is the big marn! Looks like busting them on every run. What a mid season signing in a year plauged by injury. I can't wait to see him and sia on the same team, hair will be going everywhere!

Sutton’s 16 hit ups in a half has to be some sort of record.

Sutton carting it up certainly beats our weak outside backs doing it. I like it

I haven't had a close look at it, but I reckon rapa should of ran the length on the siren and scored, and then challenged it...Might of been a try?

That hasn't been a penalty in years, unless it is super late. Ref always just calls them to play the ball.

No, the ref has ruled the titan tackled and the play is over

Sutton is running like JWH does. Speed off the mark straight into them. No messing around. Followed by a quick play the ball.
Good work.

Clearly the tactic of holding papa and lui back for the firs 25ish minutes worked well. We absolutely steam rolled them after that.

We can be sharper and we need to keep playing for the full 80. We have them worried on the edges so a good chance to look for the holes through the middle.

They certainly brought something in and around the ruck in both attack and defence.

Wighton looking good, Sutton bringing the effort and CNK and Whitehead with some good moments. Thought Scott did a couple of good things too.

Good team effort.
