Quote: rhinoms "An outstanding evening and i thought our mix 'n' match Team put a cracking effort in.
I thought the final score flattered the Kiwis and Silverd!#k once again let his incompetence shine through but 99.9% a positive game.
I've said it all Year and i'll say it again Lilley is a more than capable 7 and there's no need to use him as 3rd choice hooker imo get him game time in the halves.
Golding also proved the doubters wrong the kid is a top quality prospect.
Singos hit on Moa was top notch and overall a great way to send out our Legends.'"
Agree with all that.
The negative was Silverwood, who is a complete douche.
The positives were everything else.
A great performance from our youngsters and the Kiwis showed some of their class too.
I thought Handley, Keinhorst and Walters all showed they can be very useful for us.
Ward looked decent with the ball but a bit lightweight in defence, admittedly against some very solid Kiwis.
But the real praise has to go to Golding and Lilley. I thought they were both excellent. Golding looked safe and secure at the back (with a few cracking tackles too, obviously learning from Hardaker) and lively going forward.
Lilley I was hugely impressed with. He was organising well and putting some good passes out along with looking keen to both take the line on and run from dummy half.
Nice touch from the Kiwis to do the haka with Kylie and Ali.
