If ever there was a game that showed his importance it was tonight. Many of us (me included), gave him Man of the Match based on about a 10min period that completely turned the game on its head.
He and Foz are quite simply the best halves combination in the NRL, Forans toughness and direct running and then of course DCE's brilliance and ability to do what he did tonight.
The other amazing thing, which Gus pointed out (about 125 times on the Ch 9 coverage) was that he did it basically on 1 leg. That's why he is so valuable. Tell me which other players who could do this? And could do this at about 50-60%? In terms of halves I don't know if any of them could do this....Thurston?? Maybe. Perhaps in the fullback position, Hayne or Inglis??
Well done DCE. Top class.
