Lets not get carried away we have seen players have this level for 4-6 weeks before and then totally fall away.
Fitzgibbon I believe is a smart coach he couldn’t give a shit what’s best for your fantasy team he will be looking at it from what’s best for Cronulla. He said he will have to sit down and make a decision but it’s a good headache to have. As I said to you last week he rates Tracey highly.
Tracey has never played as well as Talakai has in 3 of the last 4 matches and he is streets ahead better at CTR than in any other position on the field.
I'd go as far as saying that if Talakai wasn't playing today, Sharks lose that game by lots. He was the only reason they won, creating 5 of their 6 tries and creating the momentum that got them in try scoring field position to start with. The only other try was a short ball to Wilton, which worked because they were trying to mark Talakai outside him.
The previous week he created all 3 of their tries against Storm.
When your CTR has created 8 out of 9 tries in 2 weeks, you would have to say he has that role locked down.
