I did get the distinct vibe and to be honest, a little bit of deja vu, that your write up was going to include an incredible Isaac Luke/John joke, so I'm mildly disappointed.......thanks for posting though nonetheless.

Definitely an interesting question

Think it might be impossible to answer because we don’t know how players are coached - some could maybe do more but are instructed not to.

Example - as a Dragons fan I remember always marvelling at James Graham chasing the breaks and trying (usually failing) to ensure the flying wing/centre wouldn’t score under the post.

First thought is, why don’t all players show that much heart?

But as a coach you perhaps wouldn’t want all your high impact lower cardio forwards gassing themselves making these extra 1% efforts.

We also don’t know where the line is between talent and effort.

Thurston used to be everywhere, picking up loose kicks etc. But what that work rate or just his ability to read the game better than nearly everyone? You kinda see the same with Cleary. Sure they both work hard but a lot of the effort is actually pure talent.

lol, I will have to throw in the little Adam Reynolds Burrow song in an upcoming one.

Mate I think the Storm will take the comp out and go back to back I just think they’ll be too good.

It’s just a matter of who versus them in the GF now for mine.

Thanks mate I fear for the neighbours tonight!

I’ve also got C DCE, Schuster, Haumole in the first game as well so I’ll be cheering them on too.

I am having oven pizza for dinner tonight too! Ice cream afterwards for dessert.

Of course, or was just quoting Rabbits. I wouldn't be so uncouth to make a mistake like that, I'm from Ipswich.

"Star lock Jason Taumalolo has failed in his bid to return from a broken hand while winger Kyle Feldt (head knock) has also been ruled out."
