Interesting no drinks break in that half
The lack of humidity kept it out of the extreme heat range.

Were you at Westfield Tuggerah today @Garry. If not you have a doppelgänger on the Central Coast.

looks like we have given up on the new winning war cry from last year
I was in TGI Fridays having lunch with the fam and saw you wander by.
We spent the weekend at The Entrance, we were on our way home and stopped for lunch in the Food Court, when we walked by TGI Friday's I said we should have had lunch there. lol

One word Confidence...once we scored a couple of tries the boys got some confidence and relaxed, looked like they could score at will. Still a little clunky however some very good signs.
My words: Thankful: there are signs of improvement across the park, wingers are solid, Toa played well as did Douhie. Lachy & Romey are getting used to each other. The forwards were solid, May is a beast. Royce chased hard in that last play showed great impact.. Samuela seems quiet, but had a great assist in a try.. Thankful for the win and Thankful for the improvement.
My word is building.
This could be the start of the team really gelling on the field. Apart from the guys getting the 3,2,1 in the other thread, I thought that Toa, Hunt and Skelton were really good. I was very wrong about Turuva and Bird. I thought Turuva would suffer without the Penrith backline and Bird would be another Peachey.
On the other hand though, what is going on with Pole and Samuela? Pole is making a lot of silly errors and Samuela has gone missing.
One word; Composed
The start wasn't great but we stuck with it and got into the grind and flow of the game.
Bula was the obvious stand out but big shout out to May, Hunt, Bird and Toa.
May had massive output in trying conditions
Hunts returns off the kick off put us on the front foot after a try.
Bird hits hard in defence and just has a good footy head, being able to read the plays really well.
Toa had a hiccup early but otherwise looked strong in attack and defence. Granted he was up against weak opposition, but he certainly has made the position his to lose until naden gets back.
im still a little worried about the ruck and PTB speed. Parra were sooo much quicker than us in the first 20. Other better teams could have really made us pay. Still, win is a win and it was nice not having to scrap for it in the last 20mins.
Thought TDS was excellent today and Benji brought him on at the perfect time.
TDS got us playing direct. Made a difference
