Josh Aloiai, and membership discussions.

gee I swim against the tide... I thought he was generally very good last year week in week out

Oh I think he was solid don't get me wrong, I'm just saying look at Marty when he played for the tigers (was aggressive/had mongrel about him and feared by most... don't think that's the case anymore but a solid citizen imo)

 

[CRPSI eagle]

If we are 4 from 4 to start with he may well and truely spend some time at Blacktown!

The Marty we knew in his first 2 seasons was a wrecking ball, constantly skittling the opp forwards if you dared block his way. Now days it's a skip & run into the defence line, making it easy for the catch and release tackles you see so much of these days.

You had to say it didn't you!!!!!!!!

This recent form is what I hoped from the big bloke since signing from Tigers
Big contacts, aggression and speedy play balls - really leading in the middle and importantly- having a real serious dig

Has been the difference in our go forward the last 2 weeks

Josh was great tonight. The last two weeks with his direct running has added the missing dimension.

 

[double hoops]

A new leader has emerged. The pack followed him tonight. They even were looking to get to their stomach tonight after he showed the way last week.

 

[XV-1]

Surely we don't have to be lazy and add a new thread when we have several.

[Cliffymagic]

Was disappointing with his injuries and suspensions last year.
Absolute beast mode last 2 weeks . Hope he keeps it up

 

[Under the Sticks]

When does Des swap Keppie for Sippers? Then our forward rotation is set.

 

[frank stokes]

He was very good but not alone tonight...

Guac - awesome
Davey - Awesome
Tent - Great
Lawton- Great
Jake - Jake
Keppie - Very good

 

[Sheikheagle]

Awesome. But there was a hint of a shoulder charge early on.

 

[winnyason]

I was blown away but young Christian on flank

 

[winnyason]

Him and big Hamuole very good

 

[Damien2812]

Aloiai was awesome and we need to recruit another like him with Taupau going. What about Christian Tuipulotu at centre with his strong running game especially from our end.

 

[mickqld]

19 runs for 163m. He's become our no.1 big dog very quickly. Most impressive performance. I'd give him M.O.M.

Food for thought for Des with both what Koula and Christian have shown

 

[silver]

He was immense tonight. When he was on the field, we controlled the game.
