What I like about Mitch, is that he is always trying to drive the attacker back in the tackle, those efforts are fantastic.



What did Lolohea do?

Did he have a swing at Jake after Savelio scored?

He's never going to be a big difference maker (I hope he proves me wrong but I just don't see it), but he's reliable, grafts as well as anyone and he's hard as nails. Squads do need players like that. He just needs to keep doing what he's doing and working on his game and I will have no complaints.

great defensive performance today, Hudds had quite a bit of ball, but we're a bit predictable, until his red card, Pryce was just happy to kick to the corners, can't remember any mistakes and each kick we're easily defused, as for the best full back in SL, didn't even realise he was playing until taking the conversion



Connor aside, thought Fash, Mitch, Lovadua all put a big effort in

should have been sent off

cant understand why the officials and even our supporters didnt see it

punched Connor and thats a sending off even though its likely Connor said something to him its no excuse

think wing is his best position but he has the build and strength to move into the second row so may be a good bench option when we get a few more bodies back

I thought our last 2 opponents have both been poor against us but you can only beat what's in front of you and we'll take those 4 points thank you very much.

grinding out a win hopefully then leads to creating a win as confidence levels rise



we take a Win at all costs

Great to see Hodgson singling out Gareth Ellis for devising the defensive plan to defuse the Giants threats.

Currently "At full speed" in training according to Hatton pre-match. Expected back in a fortnight. Grinning like a Cheshire Cat meanwhile in West Stand today.

Great news, and how marvellous to see you back
