Mitch did a great job on Leutele

I thought it was a risk having him cover Centre, now im thinking hes wasted on the wing. I didnt rate him when I first saw him, ill happily eat humble pie.

The only thing I would say is he maybe doesn't have the finesse to play centre week in week out, but he's not let anyone down so far

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?

Not getting carried away with this thought but impressed how Johnstone has responded to the fact he was at the back of the pecking order. Taking his chance for me, still has work to do but reinventing himself when he comes on and plays at LF. Gives Houghton a rest as he can step in on the odd play. Might be worth a renewal if he keeps it up.

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

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.
