Joseph Greenwood was there to take the final pass from Christopher McQueen and score, but it was not brilliance from Joseph Greenwood but rather a desperate team effort that led to the try.

Greenwood played well today, no mistakes, creates a try with a knock back and played the ball quickly for a try to be scores by his dummy half. He is settling in well, I don't think he will ever be a world beater but he was always steady.

No sign of Sarginson.

Pulled out with a knee injury I believe. Is it just me or does Greenwood never seem to do the 'hard yards' off his own line? Can't remember him doing it once vs the Eels

I see what you mean. Probably just trying to settle into the team and not wanting to make too many mistakes or get in the way trying too hard early on which is probably a good move long term, he has done well to find himself in the run on team so quickly after his move. On the whole he was good, worked hard in defence and did some nice things as alluded to by Sadfish. Full 80 minutes too i think. As he settles i expect him to do some damage on the left edge running those good lines of his, good luck to the lad.

I read an article this morning from a Greenwood interview. He said he was still learning the team playing patterns but his biggest problem was training and playing in the heat, he's gone from 5 degrees to 28 degrees in a couple of weeks. So maybe he's playing on the edges until he gets accustomed to the climate.

So the Burgess Twins are probably out of the NRL now, George made a few errors this morning in his off the bench stints and got sent off for 10 mins for a swinging elbow, although he also had a try dissallowed, he and George are both slipping out of first team due to error counts and I reckon this is the end of them at Souths.

Sam didn't play well either in an error ridden game worthy of SL Standard which Souths just about won, but he has the class the other 2 don't.

Whitehead was worst on field.

Be great to see the Burgess twins back in our comp. Whatever their form they have yet to hit their prime as front rowers so hope you are right.

well fair enough they all had a poor game Canberra anyhow, let's see how they get on tomorrow.

I didn't catch much of the Canberra game today but it was a big win for them over Wests, Whitehead scored and Hodgson was subbed late in the game when the CAnberra win was well in the bag, from what I heard with the commentators Hodgsons impact was excellent although he didn't score.

Whitehead more impressive than Hodgson today.
Lovely hands to put Rapana in for the first, then bagged one himself.
Looked more comfortable back in his position than when he was covering for Croker at centre.
