This commentator has been stitched up massively with wrong jersey numbers and even duplicates!
Haha, wasn't he. Keegan Daley will now be forever known as Tyson. And Hamasi Bloomfield will also stick, at least at school for the next few weeks.

Pretty much agree BUT whilst Shecks scrummaging v Uys was impressive, his lack of game time in the last year was hugely evident around the park ; thought Slater was the better all round TH followed by Bloomfield….

Both Sheck and Uys looked like they had small gas tanks yesterday. Really only one strong run early in the game from Uys and then nothing much happening for him after that. Possibly both Sheck and Uys are carrying too much weight which is negatively affecting their ability to last more than 20-30 min of effective play in that heat and humidity.

Geez blokes. You're a bit harsh on the Queenslanders only managing to fit 4 Reds into your TOTM?? Up until 5 minutes to go, NSW only led by 1 converted try, with Reds leading for a good portion of the match. It was a hot day out there and the Reds played for 10 minutes with a bloke in the bin (which I thought was a fairly soft yellow) which would have taken it out of them. I thought the Reds back 3 played well, Mackay had an excellent game and Will Ross was a handful.

agree - unfortunately TOTW style reviews usually recognises outstanding individual efforts, and don't often recognise many players that contribute better to the team performance (eg simply doing their jobs off the ball - supporting the 'stars')...

Fowler, was horrendous I dont know if it was from being rusty but he just didnt execute, Mackay was just so much stronger especially in that first half
