Fair enough. API is a great player. All I'm trying to say is Brailey is good as well.
no one arguing this point mate, very happy with the progression in his game this year

If he keeps it up, maybe origin will be around the corner for him but right now Api is ahead

Brailey needs to keep improving and his time will come

All good Flanno. I know Api will be the No 9. Brailey has to be the best of the rest.

Atkinson played 7 and defended as a half

Blayke played hooker but defended as the other half

McInnes played ‘6’ / as a lock with a lot of ball distribution. He defended in the middle like he’s used to

Edit: just checked, McInnes had 22 passes. Atkinson 29, next most was Will with 7
Yep, Cam was our other half with the footy. Played it beautifully, too. Picked his moments to be a half, power forward or ball-playing 13. It's worth a rewatch just to focus on him

Brailey's few steps from dummy half here suck in the attention of Kamikamica. Talakai runs a great lead line checking the slide of Macdonald.

The prior work allows tommy to get outside NAS, and he does incredibly to hold up the pass long enough to get Blore interested. Kafusi then does very well to get it down.

Didn't have many flashy plays but I'll never stop frothing over how frequently and effectively he takes out markers. Lead the pack on defence tonight dude had absolutely no fear and was routinely making first contact on the defensive end with JWH and Collins his tackle technique is absurd.
He’s absolutely critical to this team.

He’s the best at it.

Had some good moments around the ruck but didn't have as much freedom or ability to get forwards charging over the advantage line as often as previous weeks and I put that down to the Roosters strong and fast defense not a fault or lack of application from Brailey.

It's been a strength of ours the last month and the Roosters by design or accident seemed to bring some actions and the talent to address it. Still had some success with it though.

Brailey made some massive tackles.

Can't ask much more. He takes opportunities when they're present and turns into a forward killing tackling machine the rest of the time.
