Agree with that. Hansen may not offer great skill going forward but he'll run it in as hard as he can and tackle his heart out every game. Solid squad player.

I feel Joel is more of an attacking threat with the lines that he runs, especially with more license to roam about the pitch at loose forward.

They don't call him Hitman for nothing

I thought that was because EVERY time Hansen takes it forward, he gets absolutely smashed at impact. Sometimes it's quite funny, he puts in the graft tackling, then goes forward and gets hammered for his efforts.

You post that whenever Hansen's name is mentioned

Was watching the quins game back the other day and he made 4 tackles in one set. What an effort

Hes gotta start, hes our best defensive player.

He doesn't get the recognition he deserves IMO

imo we did not play that well against the quins but it was a win.we should keep the same team and maybe we will get more consisency,i don't see the point of change.

Prescott (believe he had a stormer in the reserves)

exactly.........he's carried the water bottles with confidence in the last few weeks and now this!!!!!!! the lad must be rock bottom

Pretty much spot on mate.....personally though i think id start sam and put leuleui off the bench for mcillurum. Think tommy's impact would be massive off the bench as an interchange hooker after 30mins
