OK.

We look good. Very good. In attack...we made no errors, completions were excellent we just did everything right.

I do think we can improve in defence.
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Looked like an up and slide defence on that second last play. Could this be the end of the jam in?

What I take from the 1st half was our composure and direction in attack. It was pretty clinical.

Time to rest our essentials, and let Santo etc get a run.

Observation so far

Elliott looks tanned and ready to play , tans better then hodgo might I add

If sisa is injured and stays on I think that is saying something big - Ricky hasn't decided or has decided rapana will start the season

Brown has a lot of work to do, and that's one disorganized team who don't seem happy (the tapine situation??)


Am loving the commentary !!

Hodgson is better than Cameron Smith. And I won't have one syllable of someone telling me any different.

Sia looks good in the 13.
Whitehead looks like he has very soft hands and is doing everything right.
Joey looking bloody good. Beast mode is his name.
Hodgson. What a legend.
Papalii looks impressive.
and Sezer...........SEZER! HAIL SEZER. He and Williams look good. Two calm halves who both can kick and control.

Damn this. It feels wrong to be excited over a trial.

Also that offload for the Knights try was silky, deserved to score from that.

Apart from that we are absolutely towelling the worst team in the comp.

Yeah good commentary. Its like watching footy with your mates and talking the game.

My stream lost definition and I was thinking who the **** is that over playing left centre, turns out BJ is hungry (for footy not food) this year. Happy days.

Am loving the commentary !!
For parttime local league commentators, they are doing a good job.

Boyd looked really good.
Vaughan was nearly as impressive.
Hodgson was 10 out of 10.
Sezer is class.
BJ looks fit and strong, and playing like it.
Whitehead looks dangerous, and obviously has grwat hands.
Papa also looks fit this yr.
Soliola is hitting hard through the middle.
Hard to find a player who didn't have a great 1st hslf.

Great first half time to rest our starters for round 1. Knights look horrible but its a trial and for there fans dake they should improve. Like to see our fringe players get a run and see what type of depth we have at the club.
