Rebels MOM vs Sharks

[Godfrey]

You guys know the drill...

3. Saffy - a league convert pilfering, making excellent tackles and scoring a great foward's try. Really good game.

2. Cipriani - struggled with this as Cips played a big part in letting in two tries..however he also provided a lot of spark and creativity while still being able to control a game.

1. Mortlock - A really strong game in attack and defence. If only he wasn't so slow.

3. Saffy - the fact that the Sharks backrow only really came into the game in the last 20 was due largely to the efforts of Saffy IMO.
2. Robinson - Are we seeing the emergence of a Wallaby contender. Certainly the Scrum has been very good, his throwing is getting better and he does plenty of work in tight making plenty of metres. I would rate him well above Finger and after last week Fitzpatrick. Maybe not Charles though. Not bad for a bloke in his fourth super start.
1. Cipriani - a pity he's played what 10 tests for the Poms. easily the best 10 on display from the Oz sides this week

Honourable mentions to Delve, Yoda, and Morty (I am very happy to see him building back into the Morty we all know). Huxley would have got a big mention except for his late game dropsies.

3 - Saffy - Fabulous performance. Made good ground and his pilfering and defence were just great.
2 - Delve - Really good in defence and a great contributor to the line out.
1 - Somerville - Gave the beast an absolutely torrid time.

Would have liked to have included Cips, Robinson and I also thought Mitchell was greatly improved on previous games.

Hons Cippers, Delve, G.Robinson, and young Mr Pyle did pretty well too. Mortlock not an Hons for mine, but did show one or two signs that it's coming back to him. Hux was great for 60...

I gotta say, Huxley had a shocker final 20minutes.

Unfortunately not - he doesn't qualify as he's a Kiwi and has played for Junior All Blacks.
