He had called held though hadn’t he?

Dwyer was definitely taken out trying to get to the drop goal I’ve no idea how that was missed.

I don’t know, I didn’t hear the call, neither did Jay Pitts it would seem.

If that really was Mik that is a left handed cut out ball right in the money. Maybe he should play 6.

Agree on Gannon. Some good D as well as hard running.

We look better with Gale even though he wasnt at his best.Prior fantastic again Oledezki also good.Martin much improved a was Vuniyayawa .Gannon is going to be one hell of a second rower.

Silver linings... Gannon, O'Connor and King. Gannon looks like he could be a gem and not unlike a young John Bateman (if that's allowed). The more time O'Connor gets the more he impresses and I agree, he could well end up a 9. King has some pace, sting and makes yards. If he continues in this vein, maybe he's worth an extension. I'd rather see Gannon, O'Connor, Broadbent, Walters get playing time over the next season or two and suffer some ups and downs than sign fixes who are here for just a season or two.

Walters hasn’t overly impressed me so far this year, he’s only young though so im not having a go at him.

O’Connor look to have improved with game time though.

Was steady tbf Vuniyayawa but made a couple of errors poor miss tackles as well but he wasn't knowhere near the worst for us.

I'm not sure I agree with a zero tolerance approach to high shots being brought into SL like they have in the NRL, but if it helps reduce the amount of stoppages for head knocks, and reduces the amount of wrestling at the play the ball, then it's definitely worth a try. That game was so scrappy.

Gannon and O'connor did really well, and apart from a dumb penalty, I thought Prior was outstanding. The jury is out on Walters for me, his work rate isn't particularly, and he look incredibly slow, even for a back rower, but he's young so we shouldn't expect too much at this stage.

The defence looks solid and hopefully once we get some of our attacking players back we'll have more potency in attack.

Agree on Walters but he will improve. Maybe he’s missing his greatest fan.

Really pleased with the result if not the performance tonight. We were OK in defence although Wakey without Johnstone didn’t test us much.

There were a bunch of pretty good individual performances in there.

Newman will be back as starting centre at some point. I believe L Sutcliffe has to drop to bench or out the side then. Eastmond or Lui at 6. Myler back at FB. We need a few games with a settled side too but I’m still hopeful we’ll start playing well.

i felt that on the replay

why did nothing come of the clear crusher tackle on Hurrell? very poor from the officials and video ref

Agar was touting Gannon as a generational talent and I think he’s right. What a player he’s going to be. O’Connor looks good too he’s really improving. Walters went well too I thought, like the look of him

Agreed on captains challenge. Really poor refereeing tonight. Wakey drop goal should never have been allowed. Right result in the end, but felt like we were playing a Championship team. No Johnstone and Fafita went off injured.

Wasnt pretty, wasnt fluid, most of the time it wasnt organised but again the effort was there in bucketloads. The criticism of the team which is clearly giving its all is beyond a joke from our own "supporters". Weve kids all over the park, weve players playing out of position, weve players just returning from injury and around 10 players out. What the hell are you expecting the team to look like?

Our best 2 players this season Mikolaj and Prior have played most weeks, havent had injuries and have played in their natural positons. Funny that isnt it?

Have to say while the last penalty was the correct call it was marginal but the penalty to get Wakey level at 12 all for the tackle by Luke Briscoe, while again by the letter of the law was a correct call but if tackles like that are penalties the game needs to look at the rules again.

People saying Walters doesnt work hard enough, he makes 40 tackles most weeks, hes a kid and has played a lot of minutes this season already. He was off tonight, that happens with young forwards especially. Hes had a lot on his plate the last few months and has done well.

Broadbent has been solid and done a nice job for us but were beginning to see some weariness in him now, hes played every game apart from KR and its not easy for these kids. Hes not a natural full back and Myler should improve the team on his return hopefully.

I thought O'Connor played well, he will make 50 tackles most weeks in the middle of the park which is superb for any team. Hes a good kid.

Koni was hit and miss tonight but he is our biggest threat, needs a run of games now. Sutcliife, Mellor and Martin improved in the 2nd half.

Defensively we was ok, particularly in restricting yardage i thought. Like i say i thought the effort was there for all to see again.

Kicking game and last tackle plays very poor again but really we are playing with 1 half who is just returning from injury. Dummy half distribution well lets be kind and say it was bloody awful. People calling for both Leeming and Dwyer on at the same time must watch different stuff to me Im afraid.

Morgan Gannon superb, playing as a 17 year old prop tonight. Magnificent. No doubt people will call for him to play every week until he drops a ball when he will turn into another bum. Lets be patient with him. Bring him through gradually and weve a good one there. He looks very comfortable at this level.

Hopefully the return of Myler and Tetevano will help the team.

We needed a result tonight and got one. Lets be thankful for that and move onto next week.
