Good debut for him.
Rocked a few defenders with his running.
Set up TJs second too.

But the best thing was his response to the crowd.
In his Trinity tv interview after friendly he said he'd never heard a crowd sing before.
When he was ready to go on he was actually dancing to the Pauli Pauli song.
Good on you Northstanders. He clearly loves that.

Almost snatched a try near the end, just needed to be that little bit quicker and he’d of caught the bomb...

As if you didn't have enough size already then that monster comes on

Have to say I don't know how we have assembled such a monster front row right under the noses of some much bigger better funded clubs. I suppose PP and big Dave were risks but not by much. Hirst was the real punt and he does ok, bit of a knock on merchant but he works hard and again he's pretty large - oh and Huby is injured. I'm certainly grateful, I didnt see this coming in 2015!

It's not just your pack though the backs look pretty good I said earlier in the week I'd rather have our centres and halves plus Lunt but after last night tupou was excellent and Finn who I didn't rate ran the show

I think he got the pace right but the ball came don slightly to his left. What a try that would've been! He'd have crashed straight through the barriers.

TBF you probably did'nt see much of us last year but thats exactly how we played.

Our backs have been pretty devastating for a few seasons but our new improved pack can only enhance that. I'm not boasting, quite frankly I have to pinch myself at some of the signings we have pulled off, some of whom like BJB, Finn, Lyne and England had been written off. Whilst Fifita never seemed to get started in the NRL. Someone at the club has an eye for potential and the ability to polish rough diamonds. CC is one but there must be others.

If they can do this with PP, Randall and Hampshire this season I may need oxygen. BUT IT'S WAY TO EARLY TO GET GIDDY SO I'LL SHUT UP BEFORE I JINX US

From what I saw of young Hampshire last night, it looks like his troubled and nomadic past is behind him. He has found 'his' club. He just needs a little patience and I am sure he will have a great future at Trin.

Nobody does, he is our 'secret' weapon!

It's our youngest daughter's 21st birthday today, so suffice to say they were out on the town last night celebrating and bumped into Pauli, Big Dave, Rocky and Chessie "helping the community" in one of the bars and she was comparing their biceps
She messaged us at 03.30 this morning with the pics and proudly claimed that Rocky's biceps were the best

well, y'know what.....pics or it never happened

what bar where they at??? see if it is one of the ones I loved when I lived there

I take it you don't have a Sky subscription? If you saw us last season you would have had a good taster as how good our backs are. I know I'm biased but I genuinely think we probably have the fastest (and potentially all round best) backs in the league at the moment.
