Hugo Hart
14 runs for 96 metres and 38 post contact.
39 tackles and one miss.
Good starting debut it would seem.......
Caleb went ok too,17 for 162 and 45 tackles or so.

Did Simione Laiafi not get on the field? Strange

I think they only used Dunford and PuaAva'ase to spell Patolo and Sipley and Muagutu'utia to spell GCKT,think the back row played the entire 80.
With Faulalo moving into the top side CheeKam played in centres.

It's very hard to rate tackle efficiency in a team that getting carved up all over the shop and you just happen to be "part" of that team
As an example, Cam Murray is a defensive demon with both great technique and huge numbers
If he is part of say NSW with quality players around him will have close to 100% ratings
If playing at South's say against Storm and they cop a 40 point flogging, he is caught out trying to make "other" players tackles on top of his own and in a team with a broken D line across the park and could end up at 80%.....unfortunately the Manly NSW cup team is option 2, so very tough to take stats as the judgement on any players defensive capabilities

Laifai is an interesting one. Impressive size and runs hard. They need to manage him well as he could become a gun in a few years. I'm guessing 17 or 18?
