Oldfield has the potential to play rep football IMO. Robbo has been a loyal servant, but we have seen over the last few weeks what an injection of youth has bought to the team.
Our best backline in my opinion -
1. Stewart
2. Oldfield
3. Lyon
4. Matai
5. Hopoate
3. Buhrer - 17 runs (123 m), 21 tackles, 1 line break and 6 tackle breaks.
2. Foran - 4 try assists
1. Hopoate - 24 runs (235 m), 1 line break and 5 tackle breaks.
Thought Oldfield, King, Watmough, Robinson and Harrison were also good.
Manly vs Vulcans on now.
Just started, but already Majoulli looks good, hits the line and keeps moving for 4-5 metres.
Interested how Cunningham, Palau, Oldfield, Riccardi and Jowett go.
Hoppa has something that T-Rex will never - a football brain.
Hoppa knows where to stand in attack and defense, what lines to run etc. Unfortunately not something you can coach.
3 - Watmough - Has learnt how to run straight this season.
2 - Foran - Showed his worth as a great running 5/8th
1 - Buhrer - Geeze how i was wrong about this kid.. starting to follow the same path as G Stewart.
Special mentions to Hoppa and Stewart.
