Club obviously rates him and with the longer term contract extension last season or so .
When uninjured , definitely can play a very influential role and fairly consistent the past few seasons .
Suggestions that he was not that far off S O O selection last season were not that far off the mark
Don "t mind the likely prop grouping of Tent and Taukeiaho starting , then Bully , Jake , Alioia or Sipley playing a role there then .
Even Lodge again , may have something to offer if an opportunity presents itself .
More of a priority to sort out the 9 and 13 roles then any doubt on Tent 's largely good value to the team

Paseka had a great game but on reflection he was even better than I thought.
The decoy run he took in the opening minutes made sure Haumole had a one-on-one go at the line, which meant a certain try.
I also just checked his stats (NRL) and for comparison
Haumole -15 runs - 156 m - 68m post contact (many aimed at young Perdue and little terrier Dearden)
Taniela - 16 - 152m - 63m (all into the meat of the Cows pack)
add a line break assist and try assist to Cherry
tackle efficiency 100%

And here is the problem, plays well for one match in a row, then back to being a giant plodder.

Sadly it’s the same every year. The bloke is six foot 20 and 120kgs and runs like a cat
