IMO Lemuelu was outstanding in 2023, regressed in 2024, got a bit better in 2025, started really slow this year and is now owning that left edge spot surpassing what he done in 2023 and parts of 2025.

We can't really point the finger about him having a slow start this year the whole pack slow.

It was a great experience last Friday night at Suncorp I really enjoyed it all. I took the two weeks off work and it all aligned over that time with QCup in Toowoomba, NRL and BRL.
 
I think with lemuelu he is a hit like hammer where his performances match the baseline of the team. Neither of them will necessarily bring the team out of a hole but will absolutely contribute to wins when they are coming. Which isn't a bad thing, but it's different to guys like Stone who is the same every game win or lose, isaako who is dead reliable but actually punching up this year, and the likes of Herbie and Donga who try to change the outcome of a game with every tackle and run. That being said I wouldn't trade lemuelu probably for anyone the way he gels with the rest of the team, backs up in support, runs good lines, and even his ball skills.

Guys, please. take a breath and chill. This board is generally a decent place to exchange thoughts, can we dial it back please.

I don't care who started it or who said what, its getting a little too bitchy for my liking.

Well said , I’ve been guilty of it myself attacking Matt mainly im trying to not be like that anymore . Had a bad illness before Xmas and while I was off work ( 4 months) it really changed my perspective on things . So I try not to sweat the small stuff anymore. Mr c is not a bad bloke it’s just different opinions that’s all.

There is a big difference between 'debating' coaching decisions and game preparations and things getting personal. In theory we are all supposed to be on board wanting the success of the team. We will all think of different ways that should be achieved and that our way is correct.

Its well known that i've never seen what others do in Jack Bostock, I still don't. He's a lot more reliable than he was, i don't think people remember just how many errors he used to make, but i don't think he is anything more than a solid journeyman winger/centre. He has definitely come back from his knee injury better than before.

As a winger I agree with you on Bostock he made a lot of errors. He's a much better centre. He's still only 23 a long way in front of him.

Moving forward the best options for wing will be Cobbo and Naufahu and hopefully Nonu can shake off the knee injury that has plagued his season as he's a very good finisher and prototype winger in the modern game.

People just want to see their team win some have this sheep view of "trust the experts" and others are opinionated in what they feel is the right way forward.
