He had a great game tonight, only 2 errors - the kick off that was ruled out on the full & his kick ahead after fulltime.

Apart from that, his kicking game was spot on & his passing was crisp & early to Olakau'atu & Koula.

 

[The '47ers]

Definitely 3 Dally M points coming DCEs way tonight, will lead us to a famous victory 💪🏻

 

[SeaEagle21]

Even if we get to a 20 point lead with 5 min to go I'll still expect us to lose. Pathetic really.

You weren’t far off, and alot of supporters would be feeling like that after our last game and the team justified that feeling with tonight’s effort.

He did some good things, no doubt. But you were not watching if you don’t think he made more errors than 2. I reckon he ended up in the negatives (again) in influences on the game

I watched the whole game.

He did a lot more good than bad, a LOT more.

I thought it was about 50/50 at best tbh.

Point is, for his superstar status and cap strangle he should be doing a lot more than the break even you are accepting.

Nah l, his kicking game alone outweighed his 2 mistakes.

 

[bringbackbeaver]

He’s a selfish player . Almost lost it for us with his lack of discipline and constant need to be in the spotlight

I'm not accepting any such thing as it wasn't "break even" in the slightest.

Doubling down on being wrong is always a great strategy in a debate.

How can you justify some of those poor decisions from a captain?

Is that what you're doing?

How about you list all of his pros & cons from the game to prove me wrong instead of blueskying it?

 

[DieHardManlyFan]

Like it or not DCE is the best option we have to win a premiership. Cleary, Hughes & Reynolds are locked in and after that Cherry would be the next best option. We have the team to mix it with the big boys, I think our conditioning team needs to take a hard look at themselves over the off season and work on getting all players to their peaks for next season. I think I can feel the breeze from our premiership window starting to open.

What poor decisions?

Name 'em.

 

[HK_Eagle]

He literally handed the ball to an opposition player in our half when we were completely on top and in charge. We slid completely from that very moment in time. And then he kicked the ball on that final play giving the Storm a final live play to draw the game. Sorry, but you have to challenge the pillock for that stuff

2 mistakes? He made more than that in their last 4 tries not including the kick out on the full! I’m a dce fan and have been for a long time but seriously he’s in a really poor patch of form right now imo.

 

[joeboy]

The best way to sum him up is that he can do great things similar to what other great halfbacks do but he also does some spectacularly stupid things that no other halfback (good or bad) do

If the net effect is basically zero, why pay a million dollars for the privilege ?

He is not captain material

Snappy comeback.

How bout the two attacking kicks on the 3rd tackle, no one knew they were on, one went dead and one went out (of us) two misreads in defence directly contributing to tries. Failing to keep his teams head in the game with poor execution and decision making. Shocking cut out pass on the fifth where we died with the ball. Did not goal kick at all well. Missed one sitter

Too many low percentage plays, too many poor examples to a young team. Too frustrating as such an experienced player
