This was the first moment that sprang to mind for me too and your description is spot on. He really led from the front all game. Great player.

JJ’s goal from outside 50 in the last quarter was the moment that settled my nerves the most.
They had total run of play and it took an exceptional effort to steady the ship.
Weightmans last goal was pretty special too - so nice to see some X factor and real dynamism in our forward line.

JJ’s goal from outside 50 as well. He just had to kick it..he did, and it seemed to deflate port.
I will never see #16 the same!!

That was a crucial goal when Port were coming at us.

It was massive. Really happy for JJ, he looked stoked after it. Happiest he's been on field for a while.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

I thought he used his pace more last night to his advantage.

Agree, and maybe he is getting now used to the role the MC are setting for him. Let’s also not forget the inclusion of Weightman’s energy as well. JJ had the renewed energy last night I haven’t seen all year. Hopefully a sign of things to come. If JJ can use his pace and 50 metre kicking ability, he can end up being a weapon on his lonesome.

Should be interesting. Looks like JJ vs Brad Hill this week.

Maybe JJ will play the defensive fwd role on Hill, and then run back hard as Hill has no defensive bone in his body.

So this wasn't really the moment but how good were all of Caleb's tricks last night.
The feints, the shimmies and the one handed collect and snap out of defence

Agree. The creativeness of Daniel, Dale and Williams is paramount to our successes. Invaluable.

If Williams doesn't get you, Dale or Daniel will.

Surely the best crew of ball users we’ve had in our back half for... well... ever?
