Message: [QUOTE="Dave, post: 2122090, member: 1763"] Great effort today, especially in defence - the Raiders threw plenty at us and for a team that has scored plenty of tries recently we did an awesome job to keep them to 6 points (which they should never have had the opportunity to score, thanks Archer you dimwit!) How good is our kick chase on long kicks? Best in the comp I reckon! I thought our big blokes in Hannant and Clinton were great for us today - those 2 and Sammy provided the bulk of the go-forward which really got us on the front foot - I though the rest of the pack was down on previous weeks, TC was much quieter than he has been and Parker worked hard (his chase on long kicks is very good) but is still not giving us much in attack or defence. I thought our front row played the best combined game they have for some time. I have been critical of Ennis but thought he played a much more settled game today, his kicking from dummy half was great - a few just trickled over the dead ball line that would have got us repeat sets which was a shame. Locky is getting back to his best and even at 80% he can dominate a game. Can't be too critical after an effort like today but I think a few times he really wanted the ball Ennis and Wallace ignored him for what turned out to be ordinary plays - when the best in the world wants the ball you give it to him I reckon. His combination with K and Hodges is really getting back to what it was before his injury and our short passing game around the ruck is going to cause some teams real problems in the next few weeks. Boyd and Kemp are going awesome, Boyd is a rock in defence and Kemp has magic feet and a real ability to find the line. Great to see big DT just getting out there and running hard. Not that we needed them but I thought our other bench guys were pretty quiet today and didn't give us the impact we have been getting from them over the last few weeks. All in all a great game and a great win. Keep today's effort up and smooth off a few more rough edges and we will have plenty of teams watching out for us in the next few weeks. [/QUOTE]
