Ponga gets a banner and it feels like the response is "meh, it's Ponga, he's a gun and that is business as usual".
Talakai cracks a banner and everyone loses their shit.

In the 4 weeks of Talakai being at CTR that is clearly not the case.
He created the try scored under the posts where he kicked back to the middle. The other 8 tries have all been left side in the last 2 weeks. Running the ball under the posts doesn't make it a try created in the middle.
In the Knights game most of their tries were left side as well. Tolman scored on the left side and the Talakai try.
Wilton has 3 tries in 6 games at left EDG.

I remember this because I had a gut feel Staggs would dominate given Talakai was a backrower playing out of position, but I ended up not trading Staggs in only to watch him score 80 odd points.

Talakai cracks a banner at the halftime break and everyone loses their shit.

I only watched 2nd half last night, but Talakai doesn't strike me as a defensive CTR. He's defense looked average, albeit he was able to be in the right place most of the time

Well said Revraiser, as a long suffering Knights fan, if (or hopefully when) they get their shit together and start pushing up into the top 4, I'll be enjoying the ride - as you should now. 
Fantasy is just a side-hustle compared to actually following a team.

Wilton's first two tries were games 1 and 2 when Talakai was playing mid off the bench.

Getting the ball to Talakai early in sets was how they were getting on the front foot. They stopped doing that and paid the price.

For mine, Panthers, Storm & Sharks look well clear of the next best teams as present

Panthers and Storm, then a gap, then the Sharks, then another gap and the Eels and Roosters then Souths and Manly (with the Roosters being the one who could jump them all if they get it together, and Souths/Manly as ones who could improve when their gun fullbacks are back and could impact the post-season but won't finish top four). Then there's a battle for 8th.

Sorry probably been spoken about a bit, but I missed it. Are most people happy with Edrick's JS? Now that Koula looks OK for a spot thinking of Walters to Edrick rather than letting him rot. The 30 odd is a good start, but a couple of tough games coming up could be a single-digit score, so needs a good run in the team.

My thoughts are even when Young comes back (who is also pretty shit) Edrick is ahead of the other 2 fullas anyway.
