I've just flown in from a 9 day work trip - but I was able to hear the Saints call live on the net via triple m -Â and when I got home this morning I caught the 2nd half Fox replay of the Warriors game.
A few things have really stood out:
* From what Sterlo and Joey said on the Saints radio call it seems they were just white hot that night
* Oldfield looks like an exc prospect - he sounded good against Saints - and just watching the Warriors second half I really liked his involvement and energy - when you think of Hoppa junior and Whare also having been blooded this year - plus of course Brett and Wolfman to return - it gives us fantastic backs depth - and from all reports DCE will quite likely be the 2011 Hodko.
* King looked really aggressive and his big hit late in the game which caused Warriors to cough up the ball was a potential match winner
* Glenn Stewart is finally amping up and Ballin looks to have taken the hint that it's not enough to just be a defensive no 9 he's got to attack from dummy half too which he's starting to do
* Crikey has Tony Williams been reading my world's laziest player posts?! In the last 10 mins we were under immense pressure in our own 20 - and can you believe it T Rex came in field looking for work - his hit up took 3 defenders and from that set we got down field to secure match winning territory - finally T Rex is seeing the light to get in there and use his massive frame!!
* From what I could see (and from what Gould said in the press) the Warriors deserved a lot of credit for not going away all day but we were the tougher team in the critical last 10 and won the day - that's gotta put us in good stead for the Roosters
The only negatives appeared to be the injuries - what's the latest on Rodney and Watmough anyone know?
