He had a fairly strong game. Understandably not ready for first grade yet, but showed alot of promise. He lined big john kite up every time and smashed him. Hes not as devastating as he was in 20s against a much smaller pack, but has a big work rate and is developing nicely with time in nsw cup.
Good news on Taupau. Seems to have recovered well from off season surgery , and game time will improve fitness.
Just on Marty, he is being pulled in 2 different directions. Manager, Lance Thompson, wants to shop him to the highest bidder. Family want him to bide is time, and are sure that a big contract will ome with time. They do not want a "Kite" experience and are happy he stayed.
1 year contract though, so the same fight will be played out once again.
