3 - Fox. Hard to go past a hattrick against one of the best defensive teams in the comp (yeah I know that is his job he is a winger, but there is so much he had to do exactly right in each of the tries, and he nailed them), plus 5 linebreaks, tackled effectively when called upon to contribute to our left side that conceded 0 points. 243 run metres, 1 kick for a forced drop out. 0 pens
2 - Xerri. I wasn't convinced in his previous game that he'd proven he belongs, but in this game he did. Sumptuous move on Meaney to draw the winger and put Fox away for the first try. Over 200 running metres, 21 hit ups, lovely fast PTB, part of our 0 conceded points left side. 1 error at a vital stage of the game, but he is still underdone, it will be exciting to see what he brings over the rest of the season.
1 - Tracey. 8 kicks defused, a massive part of our overall defensive effort. His runs are rarely not to advantage, which keeps us rolling forward, and gets a fast PTB most of the time. Has given CC a real headache in choosing the FB position.
HM: Kiraz (workhorse, some great defusals), Curran (our engine room, high metres and tackles), Turps (he dropped the ball at the start, and missed a tackle on Hughes at the end, but given how underdone he is was fantastic in the middle, wins the ruck in defence a lot of the time, hits hard), Kiks (3 line break assists).
Also SM to Hayward, came on and made 23 tackles, no misses, couple of handy hitups, and no errors, unlike almost the entire rest of the team that played over 20 minutes.
