Was a little disappointed in Fakatava. He looked really average out there. Option taking was off and delivery was laboured. I hope he improves!
Last week we had people talking him up as the next best HB in the country. Maybe he needs games under the belt but his option taking was slow two games ago as well.

“He's got to learn he can't take everyone on himself,” Brown told Stuff afterwards. “So, he's got to play with the team and do his job better.” - Ouch..but true

I don't think I've seen an uglier game for a while but it is early in the season. Let's hope we don't see a rehash of that.
Who impressed me was Thomas Umaga-Jensen - big, strong and can break tackles & beat defenders. Delany from the Canes was pretty good on debut. Ardie was Ardie..immense.

A midfield combo with the two twin brothers could be fun but it won't happen under Foster's management.Yeah I think Josh would be even more lacklustre in the midfield than jack has been the last couple of years.

Wouldn't just be fun, be a very good combo.
