I'd forgotten about Atkins.. Just shows how players fall off the radar.
Very strong, but didn't get his winger away often enough - I think that was the main criticism of him.

Bridge was a top drawer centre. Could time a pass to a winger better than any wire centre I've seen,...........except gleeson!

Crumbs - yes.
Again Gleeson and Bridge both very very good.

Surprised Reece Lynn not mentioned - he is no world-beater but compares well to others mentioned IMO

Matt King - another one who was fantastic on his day.

Mata’utia showed enough yesterday in his MOM performance to convince me he’s good enough to make a difference. I enjoy watching Mamo but Mata’utia looks to have a better all round game maybe.

On the subject of Reece Lyne who was also mentioned, what is his injury record like?

I've always preferred Bill Topou to Reece Lynn, but haven't seen much of Trinity recently, and missed last nights game.

I’m a Tupou fan but last night was his second game back after a knee reconstruction, and now he’s out for the season again. A bit of a risk, as much as it is bad luck for him.

The Wakey three quarter line gets a lot of injuries.

Mata’utia is going to be an absolute player for us.

2 top notch signings.... well happy with them.

Mata'utia is looking to be a good signing, after another impressive game last night.

I thought some of their backs towered over our forwards last . Big ,useful lads.

In Powell we trust.

But Chris Riley (and Rhys Williams for a season) scored a lot of tries playing outside him and they weren't beneficiaries of the Briers bombs in the way that Hicks, King and Monaghan were.

Didn't Hodgson (& then Ratchford) do the majority of their attacking work on that side of the pitch?
