Mick Ennis is a dribbler, has to be the worst commentator
I was just watching a replay and was thinking exactly that. He's painful to listen to. The fake laugh is so annoying and he keeps doing it! Then he chooses one particular player and drools over him non-stop for 5 min before moving onto the next.

Thought Josh Kerr was outstanding when he came on , really changed the game. Agree with stone as well his aggression in defence was up there.
One of those games where it's really hard to pick the best.

He kept banging on about the weather, I have to mute it once he starts

What a game. Good team effort but I'm going to go with a couple of forwards as well. They are the one's who kept us in it in the first 20-30min or until the second half when they ran out of gas and out smaller players ran riot.

3. Stone
2. Fuller
1. Aitken
After looking at the stats, I have to give Max Plath a wrap. He might well have deserved MoM.

True but I was referring to his sidekick. Is it Warren Smith?
That unprofessional dickhead makes it so obvious who he wants to win. With Vossy for example, views have no idea who he wants to win.

Maybe I was being a bit too optimistic but without Moses, they lack attack.

Sorry can't see it happening. I think the forwards out muscle us and Fuller will get endless pressure. i see a loss how much depends on the effort.
I was sitting pretty to 49 mins. Can't remember the last time I saw a pro team collapse like this

It was very hot, as the commentator kept reminding us once the Dolphins went ahead. And as soon as they went ahead, it seemed like a try almost every set. But I don't rate Parra. Their premiership window has closed. Both their big name props are past their best. Backline is slow. Gutherson runs a lot of metres because he's the fullback version of Paul Gallen. i.e. hit the ball up twice a set which looks great on the stats sheet but doesn't serve the team well.

The one really good player they have is Moses and he's out for half the season. By the time he's back, I think they'll be in a situation where they have to win almost every game but even with Moses, I very much doubt they can.

I've heard Vossy is a real ________ in life but as a commentator, I think he's the best by a wide margin.
yeah he is new someone that worked in radio with him has big opinion of himself
