I would love to live in Australia right now! 

How did our Tigers fans feel seeing Benji on the bench for the Bronco's?

I can't imagine seeing Locky or Parker finishing up sitting on a Balmain/ Wests bench.

Do it!

We've got sheep, maybe not as much as NZ, but we've still got some.

I know this is the fantasy thread....but fantasy aside, he's actually playing some bloody good football too while he's at it.

Finally living up to the Future Australian Captain (FAC) tag that was placed on him at an early age....

That was in reference so I could fight you!

I'l find you one day fishes

Just watched the chambers no try again 20 times and at the time i thought they cocked it up but now i think it was right, the side on view when you pause it shows i think that hand it away from the ball when it reaches the line

Think he needs to go from dummy half a tad more and take more conrol of the kicking when Bunt has his off days otherwise he has been fantastic to start the year

His last game for us was 4 seasons ago. He was a deadset champion for the club for a decade.

Yeah fair call but I'm happy for him to slowly ease into that role this year...rather than his standard approach of overplaying his hand.

The one thing that I've noticed (and surprisingly it's such an underrated aspect of the game these days), is that his service from dummy half has improved tenfold.
Thats a part of Smithy's game he doesn't get enough credit for (IMO a big part of why the Storm are always able to roll forward and maintain good momentum) and it's bloody good to see the FAC stepping up in that regard.

Completely agree. He was either short or it was a knock on. I can't believe the blow up.

I captained him this round. First time my captain has scored above 50 so I'm happy

Well said.

That's an attribute you can't measure. Game management, pass placement

I would love to see Macca continue in his 80 minute role and continue his early season form, he looks the fittest out there

Bit disappointed with Moose only scoring 44 however at least he made his BE. Meanwhile Faufusi is the gift that keeps on giving!

No Smith mate?

What you did there was the reason why Captain Cam is so important.

Macca needed 60+ tackles, few RM and some KM points and a completely clean error free game* to just get near him, even with all that he finished 2 points above a pretty standard game for Smith.

Well done you to, but the risk is big not captaining Smith

Yes well I captained Gallen who I thought wouldn't be too far off Smiths scores. I knew they wouldn't be as good but 100k cheaper.

Shame Gals output isn't similar as last year.

I went with Macca and Brailey. Sacrifice I was willing to make
