Agree, Lets give credit where its due . Young Ponga is a brilliant player .
Tom Turbo at his best is devastating .
When was Tommy last at his best?
Hopefully Sunday, please let it be Sunday.
Ponga will be the leagues best player by next season. Cowgirls screwed up big time letting him go.

Don't know about his best, but he was pretty handy against Canberra at Brookvale. Man, that seems like a LONG time ago…
We haven't seen Tom Turbo at his best for a some time. IMO Turbo at his explosive best is no 1.
It must have been hard for the Cows to keep Ponga under their cap when the desperate rebuilding Knights offered a kid top dollar .

I guess in hindsight for the cows .Thurstan shoulda bowed out and they offer ponga a decent deal. They are giving thurstans money to Morgan thou. So probly a bit tight up there atm.
600k for Ponga was a very good investment indeed
I think your right on the Turbo money and I hope he starts giving us our moneys worth
A quality skillful fullback these plays like an extra 5/8 . Ponga sure does have all the skills
Agree, they have a great combination after only 9 games. Fitzgibbon I am very impressed with.

Ponga is a threat every time he touches the ball. The opposition know he’s going to do that little skip but struggle to contain him every time. He is some player... could be anything. He will end up playing six.
all Ponga has done is step up his game.

Plenty of hype around this guy, but so far he is living up to it. Could end up being one of the NRL stars over the next decade. What's his allegiance ?? Aussie or Kiwi ??

Turbo might be in trouble when it comes to that fullback position for the green and gold. I’ll prob get a lot of hate for this but Ponga is a better all round player

Can't argue mate, Ponga is in some great form. Tommy just can't find it at the moment unfortunately
