I thought Hauraki had a great game as well. Think Griffin will miss out when Junior is fit.

Were you at the same game? How many penalties did he concede? He was out in the centre & kept running into the defender.Made half a break towards the end but, it was on the other side,passed into touch. I hope I am wrong but feel a poor signing just to act as Rangi's chauffeur.

I never actually got why we signed him, he's a penalty machine at best and a dirty sod at worst.

With the forwards we have the money he's on could have been spent on a top notch hooker.

Huaraki conceded 3 penalties. He made 38 tackles and 13 drives so he got through a fair bit of work.

Re - Tasi
Isn't it called rotation ?

Yep, same number of penalties as Walne with twice the tackles and a marginally (7cm) less average gain

Interesting set of stats from round 1. Evalds top metre maker of the round and second highest average gain

Warrington had a number of forwards with 15+ carries (Hill, Westwood, Sims). Our top forwards were Lee, Hauraki and Hansen with 13. Rangi topped our list with 15. Generally though our forwards made decent metres with Paterson (2nd highest AG of any forward in round 1), Taylor (highest prop I think), Hock, Walne and Hauraki all making higher average gains than warringtons top forwards (Asotasi and Currie)

Top tacklers were Hauraki and Lee with 38 each. Both also had highest missed tackles with 3 each

38 players gave penalties away in round 1 and we had 7 of them, same as Saints and Catalans
