    Manu is moving in slow motion it seems.
    he need some room to wind up a bit i think, back to centre....
    S smith looks like he could add some spark , I'd like to see him get another crack

      Manu is playing like someone who is expecting to go back to centre when Walker is fit and comes back in.

        Not saying he is Cooper Cronk but Sandon is a similar game style half back.

        Certainly has come a long way in a short space of time - was playing SG Ball in 2021 - Andrew Johns Cup to NRL has been the journey

          Manu was needled up for the game

              Good game from Danson slick from dummy playing out of his preference half back spot should start next week imo even if it’s against Cleary

                    I feel totally vindicated for pushing the Sandon Smith bandwagon. I think you me and Jacks fur coat have been big fans for awhile now. It’s like a father feeling proud that their kid did well…. Hahaha

                      Robinson: I really like what he did


                      Roosters coach Trent Robinson talks about the debut of Sandon Smith

                        There were options... i thought maybe
                        Supercharger..... but it's a bit early for that
                        Cruise Control...... too early as well
                        maybe Clutch start ?
                        Anyway, let's hope he gets another chance in the top grade, and Handbrake gets a chance to sharpen his skills in reserves.

                            Hopefully now that Sandon had a decent debut he can now take the current vacant #14 and Hutch can stay in Reserve grade

                              Agree. He needs to play 7 next week.

                                Why has Sandon Smith spent time playing fullback in the NSW cup? It seems a bit odd to play the promising young halfback in that position
