I've first saw Brad as an 8 year old and he was noticeable as 'the little blonde guy with plenty of enthusiasm and zip'. He's got two really experienced blokes to learn off in Monas and Higham and if he stays healthly he should be around for long time to come.

It was great to see Lee Briers reaction when he got over for his try too.

I can't believe I actually wrote that - the Belgian ale is pretty strong.

...and we don't want to kill that pace and enthusiasm by overworking him while he's still learning the game. Higham was excellent last night and deserves the bench spot if Monas returns.

As good as dwyer is turning out to be, Higham has been faultless the past few matches and for that reason he is now No.1 hooker.

Wow, I never thought I'd say that. Of course without a firing Monas we look half the team!

Dwyer's improvement as a player over the last twelve months has been amazing. Still only 18 as well.

The benefit our youngsters are getting from being full-time and training as part of the first team squad is already paying massive dividends.

Good also to see Squadbuilder getting credited with sponsorship of both Dwyer and Currie last night.

With Higham's improvement in mind, will he be offered a deal for next season or will Dwyer be promoted to interchange hooker?
