Absolutely immense. His improvement over the the last 12 months has been mind boggling. Brilliant on both sides of the ball.
Hopefully some others can follow suit... Jacob, Lamb....

Before this game i was highly unimpressed by Lillyman though last night he was brillant.
Now Barnett, people will hammer me for this but idk.
Aggressive player yes, but besides running out of the line to try put big hits on he was poor.
If his name was Sims the knives would be well and truly out for him.
Injured or not he shouldnt be in the 13 atm.
For our "supposed pack leader" who is averaging 46 minutes a game.
59m 23tks 3.3mt a game is chithouse.
I hope its just injury thats holding him back cause we need aggression by the bucket load though no middle forward should keep a starting spot on those numbers.
Next weeks pack im hoping to see.

Our pack can go forward and stop the offload they responded really well. Need two good experienced props for next year. Sam burgess please.
The Griffin/Levi combination worked as well as everyone thought it would.
Griffin was our top defender, and I thought his time at dummy half was also higher quality because he didn't have to save energy to last 80 minutes.
Between them Griffin and Levi got through 63 tackles and kept the pressure on the opposition with quality dummy half work for 80 minutes.
The playmaking trio of Pearce/Lamb/Ponga also worked better with Lamb and Ponga swapping sides during the game and making the opposition defence think about what was coming, rather than knowing that Griffin was looking for Pearce and no one else.
Kenny Sio worked well with Ross. He will never be a star, but he makes the most of what talent he has by making really good decisions and very few mistakes.
Brown said that was the best game the team has played since he has been here, beating a very good side who turned up to play. I think he is right, and I think there is a lot more improvement in the side still.
Anyone else think sione was pretty solid last night. Nothing awesome but seemed to hold position better and ran hard in attack.
