Message: [QUOTE="Mr Fourex, post: 2482999, member: 7980"] Agreed with most of what you've said there Porthoz except for the bolded part. Wallace [U]does not[/U] play a great game.......he's ordinary at best. Last night he played well, other than the missed tackle on Kelly and the fact that he was kicking straight down Zillman's throat for much of the game and before you go off on a Wallace V Prince rant......I'm not saying Prince has been going well either, although Prince has got class and is starting to settle into the team well. Last night the pair of them had their best games together, as a halves pairing. Something that's been over looked and I think it has been the biggest reason we have finally clicked in attack is that we are now starting to play with some depth. A lot of us were pointing out that most of our woes were due to everyone standing flat footed. Something must have happened during the half time break against Melbourne because from then on we have really been constructing our backline well and we seem to have magically found some room to move. Well, it's not magic ......it's simply standing deeper in attack. I thought Hannant, Parker and in the 2nd half Gillett really stood up for us....though in saying that there weren't really any brisbane forwards (including the bench) who didn't play a role in laying down the foundation for a terrific win. Lui starting to show some confidence until he was injured. Hala, with fitness and confidence will be handy to have in the side. He's going to grow into a powerhouse for us in due time. Maranta......well, I don't think we're going to see anything more out of this bloke. It really struck me just how slow his is when he failed to capitalise on Norman's half break and then again off Norman's grubber through. He's solid......plays a safe game, but we could do with someone else who will offer a bit more. Not sure if I want to persist with him until Yow Yeh is ready.....keen to get some speed out there. How's Kemp coming along? Corey Norman......all the Norman haters must be squirming in their seats about now. He showed us last night what he can do when his confidence is up. Whether or not he is staying with us next year....I wouldn't be moving him from fullback. He has improved with each and every game this year. There is still much more improvement in him to come. The team is starting to settle........5 rounds in and we are starting to look and play like real premiership contenders. [/QUOTE]
