It has been a half, not feeling super comfortable yet.

Would be nice to see a big 150+ score to start though.

SilverLion

Martin ended up outscoring him :o

MontyJnr

What happened to Goldy in the second half? Any reason for the drop off?

Ingram

He heard about Ryder and wanted to keep flying under the radar.

Spent a fair bit of time rotating with Ben Brown and when he went forward not good conditions for them.

Can't complain with Gawn and Goldy but Nicnat looked awesome and only played 54% of the game

Which means he'll be managed, very happy I steered clear.

I reckon I could nearly have the same hitout stats if I was in a ruck contest against either Sinclair or Towers.

Well he scored 113 being managed and it was his first game in 18 months. Only going to get better

Against the worst ruck combo in the league. Could also be rested at some stage.

It wasn't the hitouts I was impressed with it was the way he moved and jumped and threw himself in. Was good in the air, No strapping on the knee and didn't look affected by it at all. If you're not impressed with 113 from 54% game time then you're a hard man to please haha

Never questioned his ability, just saying that he won't be scoring that well every week. The fact they benched him when the game was on the line speaks volumes.

They would have always planned for him only to play half the game. They aren't going to risk him just because the game is close.
Anyway, my point was that he looked great and I expect 100+ from him for the year. Still happy with the Gawn/Goldy combo

Huh?  He had a minutes restriction and reached it so he was put on the bench.  Him and JKK are massive in our team's success, with the injuries they've sustained especially NicNat, why would we deal with that drama in a round 1 game?  :o

Again, I'm not questioning his ability just saying they will gradually increase his workload, irrespective of the circumstances onfield. That doesn't bode well for SC scoring.
