3. McG - Bombed a try but who cares. Another sensational performance from a prop forward who, considering his size has no business being as good as he is.
2. Hunt - Despite a couple of weeks of poor performances, he's back to his absolute best. If he keeps this up for a few years, he'll be up there with Cronk and Cherry Evans.
1. Barba - Whether the NSWankers who love to hate him want to admit it or not, Barba is the X factor in our side at the moment. He is taking to the 6 like a duck to water. Every time he gets his hands on the ball, he looks dangerous with a capital D.
Special mention to Martin Kennedy: He wasn't spectacular tonight but he did more as a bench prop in this one game than Lowrie has done in 5. He has earned his right to see out the season to give Bennett some thoughts.
Worst on ground:
6 points to Josh Reynolds - for not only being a shit player but an absolute **** human as well.

100%. Hunt had to tackle T-Rex one on one almost every time. T-Rex pushed him off twice, but Hunt got him about 9 or 10 times.

... and now, while we are at it, let's discuss Barba's defence in the front line too ...

Maybe we could do that in another thread, but the NRL.com stats suggest Barba only missed one tackle. I think he's been doing fine. Getting good protection from Glenn though, I must say.

Hoffman
Glenn
Hunt and Hoffman's performances speak for themselves but I thought Glenn was very good last night. The work he is doing holding together the left edge, trusting Barba in defence and covering for him as well. Providing the last ditch option when Barba/Hunt ran themselves out of space and didn't want to be tackled with the ball. His desperation to get on any loose balls and willingness to go forward inside our half last night was really good to see. His catch and pass in the Barba try was superb as well. In the short period he was playing lock he was everywhere.
