Robinson impressed by Nawaqanitawase debut | Roosters Press Conference | Fox League

robt your thoughts on the end of the regular season how you guys fin yeah um I thought you know really positive regular season for us you know I think it's our most wins probably since 19 um you know we've improved as a team and um yeah you know obviously sitting in second now um pressure on opposition to see what they do tomorrow but um in a position that we want to be and um you know take a breath tonight tomorrow morning and then you know get ready to create a game plan and a fight for next week so next week's obviously be but the story tonight yeah Mark yeah yeah nice second touch you know it was um I was just saying I don't think it looks you know I think everyone's sort of looking going oh let's see if he can adapt to the game and what traits is he going to have and is he going to get lost all that type of thing and and he doesn't look out of place at all you know it looks very comfortable on a lot of the decision making plays as well around the things that we do a little bit differently um and uh yeah he just he looks comfortable and he's you know that's his fourth game of rugby league since he was 15 it's a pretty good job you know and that means he's a quality player and uh he'll continue to get better you expecting both tupes and and Dom young black next week yep yep yeah I expect them back next week yeah Tedy what did you makeing marks performs like obviously the tries the the Highlight play but there a few moments he linked up with Joey on the kick returns and few other things what yeah yeah I Lov these it's um it's tough to come in as a win you know thought he handled those um a first play carries really strong um as as Robert said didn't look out of place at all and uh it's a credit to him he's only come in sort of a month ago was it and picked up the game really quickly always eager to learn and ask questions and um I thought he was awesome t for a debut um first game rugby league I think in his career so uh I thought it was really strong a couple of concerns Junior left with the Finish yeah D is um he's he's good in there um I really liked I thought for a 19y old front rower he played like a front rower you know he saying there's front rowers an in the game you have to at different times you got to run at smaller guys um but front rowers should run at other front rowers and they they should take on the Battle of that and he started his career that way he picked out I think key off the kickoff he picked out the front rowers and said okay let's let's go he likes that physical battle came off second best with Tom um there off the kickoff but he started his career as a front rower in the right way I was really proud of the way that he played um there tonight um and uh yeah he's he's really good there what about Joey Su I think he was favoring his shoulder the first minute but that yeah I think um had an outside shoulder contact from kez and he came back in and I think it had memories of two weeks ago for him and then uh I think that settled down fairly quickly you know he obviously jumped for the ball could only jump one-handed but it came back quickly so um that was good news no concern just you know finish the regular season um believe in what we're capable of and then get ready to go how did you say the combinations tonight with a new half back and a new hooker yeah I thought uh uh I thought sandon was really really good I thought sandon's he's got the ability to to put plays on himself you know he obviously had good combination with Ted and kez um so they felt comfortable but he's also has the ability to to create stuff on his own he runs the ball you know uh for the most part he defended really well as well so I thought that was for the first game in a while in the NRL at halfback um Good Start so um uh so that was good and then Connor was Connor Connor does his job and busy and he's always into something so I thought that was a good start on the on the new 9761 there did you see patience in s this game as well given the start that first half didn't get a lot of touches but second half he came out didn't seemed to try and force himself into the game but took it he's got really good subtlety he's he's got really good Tempo on his plays and uh he's not in a rush um and I did like the fact you know kez had a lot of opportunities on the left and and scored some tries there and he just I think he had a couple of carries a couple of simple plays and then it opened up for him in the second half so um yeah nice game Angus obviously got recognized on Monday the Brad fitland medal he set up for you just his season this year and just where from where he started to where he is now just a word on yeah unbelievable the year he's had I think uh W Lewis medal as well about fit the medal but yeah he's been one of our best all year just keep getting better and better so um you know when he's got the ball he just creates havoc and creates a lot of opportunities um for me and our outside outside guys and he's been a big part of our success this year so um just going to encourage him to keep going um um and he'll be a big part of us being successful in the finals as well all uh I haven't had a look at it yeah other than at the time so yeah we see okay thanks thank you
