MOM by a country mile today for me....... thoughts ?

Penny
Carvell
Mick
Harrison
Briers

On par with Briers id say, either could of got it. There were shouts for Carvell too, he had a stormer. Thought Blythe had a good game too

Not a county mile, but he'd have been mine. I thought McCarthy was excellent too.

It was sort of Bridge circa 2006 : The Best Of, today. Some great footwork, strong runs and his assist for Pennys second try was Gleeson in his pomp, just made it look ridiculously easy (.....and unselfish too I might add).

He's a package to try and get down when hes on the move, MOM for me aswell.

He played that game with a lot of passion and aggression he looked well hard and pumped

Bylthe did alright, just silly knock-ons.
I thought Mitch had a stinker.

Thought Benny Westwood had a great game today as well - really good in attack and defence - a tough one between him and Bridge for me.

Poll please mods ?

BOLLOX his defence was dreadful , Briers by a country mile but on the whole we were garbage as a team, our defence showed us what we have to work on in the off season, good job quinns were awful ! any other team bar celtic would have spanked us today !

Agreed, my MOM aswell.

Biscuit Bridge eh Padders, not done so bad this year has he fitness wise. You standing by your theory that he's NL1 stuff then ? (... after the biscuit one seems thankfully to have been proven as myth.)

Rubbish, Bridge was awesome today MOM for me.....Briers would've been my MOM if only for that stupid error right at the beginning of the match.

Oh, the teams defence was pretty poor throughout today so you can't blame that on Bridge.

ye, thought he played excellent today!

I agree bridge should of bin Mom closely followed by penny thompson and briers

only blackmark for me against bridge today, was the bizarre try that quins scored after we did, with that short angled kick off, bridge was nattering all the way back to KO position with luke dorn and still was when the ko was taken rather than paying attention,

the rest is history.

that said when briers has been fit he's been a more than ample replacement for glees at centre, he also does some great work popping up elsewhere over the field.

Lest we forget he set up the first of king's trys at the semi like that.

Yes I agree, should have been man of the match

.

Good call that, he did it today, Westwood try. He sort of roams. I think today, in what wasn't a normal, sort of structured SL game, it showed that in broken play he's still as dangerous as ever, you just sort of, can't rely on him to break a team down.

I think he's been pretty good at right centre all told, his goal kicking has come on leaps & bounds too.

He will make a good back up player next season !

You say he has a poor defence, what about his attack?

Thats even worse

Not from what I saw yesterday, was quite effective as centre

I thought Briers was my MOM, simply for his influence. It's obvious, him being the major pivot, but anything we did right came through him. There were some good performances, but Briers was at the heart of every attacking set and pushing for something special everytime he had the ball. Nice to him take the line on so much. His flat ball for the try under the sticks was beautiful.

Plus, [ithat[/i pass that missed Thompson (I think) for Bridge's (I think, can't remember too well) try was world class. Flat, spin pass a good twenty + yards, could've gone forward or to ground, such a difficult pass to make and he hit it with precision.

Do you honestly think he will get in in front of King and Atkins next season ?
If you do you are seriously deluded ,he will be a squad player same as Clarke and Riley !

Great game from Bridge he seemed to grow in confidence the long the game went on and looked dangerous with every touch...
