MVP: Rd 16 v Souths

3. Brown- I thought we got him for some mongrel. But tonight he showed he’s got more than that to his game.
2. Tommy Talau- continues to give his all. Stopping Johnson from scoring through utter desperation.
1. Bullymore- up the gutz with fast and good metres.
 
Not entirely performance related for me

3. Sipley. Absolute Warrior, His knee is completely gone, but he is pushing through for the club, really inspirational stuff. And his impact with the ball was outstanding. Saw him trying to get back onside after a long break, and the poor bugger was basically hopping back into position

2. Waddell, similar to the above, for some insane reason the coach started him, and early on he was hobbling into his hit ups. Great ticker

1. Bullemor, awesome game off the bench. On the last 2 weeks form, he should be in the top 17 every week, really rate him. Will be a disgrace if he gets left out late in the year for Lodge
 
3. Lawton - not for his halfback play, more his tenacious defence and line breaks (can certainly hit a hole - two weeks in a row now)
2. Brown - lead from the front, busy in attack and defence, some nice ball-playing
0.5 Sipley - more like what we’ve been expecting -list of PCMs and some offloads creating second phase play
0.5 Bully - immediate impact when he came on

Waddell, Navale and Talau also played well.
 
3 - Lawton - for a bloke so out of position, he tried his heart out in both attack and defence.
2. Talau - in everything and cannot be dropped when Tom returns. Hoppa has done well but a bit more of an apprenticeship (and filling out) will be good for him.
1. Brown - in a toss up with Waddell. Both gave their all again and Waddell on one leg. It could be argued Brown on 2 bad knees >:)
 
A lot of our guys can hold their heads up after that one. My picks were:

3 Lawton in absolutely everything, no-one could have tried harder
2 Brown ditto, led from the front, only way he knows how
1 Talau we have a real keeper here and he seems to be thriving in the Manly system. Tried super hard in another great game.
 
3) Lawton - 80 mins, 44 tackles, metres, line break, couldn't have tried harder
2) Brown - 60 mins with similar stats
1) Waddell - 35 tackles and played on one leg

Closely followed by: Sipley (similar to Waddell), Talau (another strong game), Bully (runs up the middle), Navale, Schoupp, Hoppa
