Just watching the game again and got to Menfredi's break and subsequent try. As we now know, Manfredi is no slouch, but did you see the staggering speed of Hampshire catching him up in support? How fast is Rocky, bloody hell!

that's why he's called rocky.

the attack looks a lot more fluid and that should only improve with the inclusion of o'loughlin and to a lesser extent green. burgess has cemented his place and the left side looks far more dangerous than last year.

i don't see clubb making the cut for the roosters game, i hold out hope he will improve but at the moment he looks lethargic and ineffectual. If he doesn't play we'll probably have hughes or bateman with farrell in the second row and that leaves the pack looking small compared to the roosters who i fear could be too strong given we struggled with the warriors when they just rolled up the middle with their props.

Thanks for the reply. We are hoping Tomkins will be used around Mateo who is a Try maker with his offloads.

He used to link very nicely with Gareth Hock who is also a serial offloader so I'd expect the same with any of the Warriors forwards who like to do the same.

I'm really looking forward to see how he goes. He is an exceptional talent, the best at our club since Ellery Hanley and his will to win is incredible. He drifted a little towards the end of his time here I thought and his form in the World Cup wasn't great but I think this move was on his mind. He will rise to the challenge IMO and show people down under that he's one of the very best players in the world.

If it doesn't though just send him back here

Fair shout Grimmy, although I'd sooner see Pettybourne in the SR, he's quicker and more mobile than Flower. Gurrera and SBW are both fast SRs, I'd worry they'd leave Flower for dead outwide.
