he went great
Was solid last week and showed glimpses. Tonight he got more involved and had more opportunity, played well. Has nice footwork and looked good defensively.

Whare was great. Oldfield's pace made the tryscoring chance and turned another chance into an easy try. And Buhrer turned the game by giving go-forward.
The most frustrating thing about the game was the delay in getting the third man into the tackle around the legs. How do you expect to slow them down, or stop easy metres with only two tacklers?

Great game from the kid. All he needed was a chance and he's grabbed it with both hands. He's got it all,speed, footwork, good hands and defence very solid. Be interesting to see what Tooves does when Matai returns.

In the days just before Des departure last year I was talking to a guy who is a small sponsor of the Bulldogs who has some association with officials who said that Whare was going to be the first player to switch from Manly to the Bulldogs and follow Des across. At the time I didnt think Des was going.....but there you go.
He was asking me about what he played like cause he didnt know much about him so it seemed unlikely he was using it as a wind up or it was some wild rumour. More like "who is this bloke we are signing ?? "
Of course nothing has happened subsequently but Whare is not worh the Telegraph sensationalising about ...if he plays a couple more games expect the stories to start about our latest crisis departure.

Was stoked to see him have a great game, will do his confidence the world of good. a bit more game experience and he will gain those extra few steps in his little dummy half charges that we are missing without hoppa. looks to have the fire in his belly.

In a losing team on Monday night I thought this kid had a good game.
He's replacing one of our best whilst he's injured and I thought he hardly put a foot wrong on Monday night.
As long as we can keep him he will be an able replacement for Shoulders or Killer when they either move on or retire from the game.
I know he's had limited game time, and will continue to get that whilst ever our front line two are playing so I just hope he's patient.

And off contract as well Mark!
When he made his debut for us I wondered if he had the size to make it but he certainly looked like he's bulked up in the last few years.
Not going down the "hope who we keep" road again, but it would be a shame to lose such a handy replacement.

RE: Dean Whare
As there are a fair few reasonable centres in the game you would like to think that would keep prices somewhat realistic. Most teams seem to have some depth in their centres. If there is no big demand surely we stand a resonable chance of keeping Whare.

RE: Dean Whare
He had that bad ankle break in the junior international match before the start of last year which really set him back & allowed Oldfield to jump ahead of him on the pecking order (& subsequently snatch a spot for himself in the starting thirteen). Very impressed with the way that he handled himself in recovering from that injury & getting back to form so quickly. He's a gun & should take over a spot in the next year or two.
Aside from being a Giants fan he seems like quite a nice bloke as well.
