After an ordinary first half, to say the least, how good was it to see him backing into packs and running around marking anything he saw fit in the second half.

Really stood up for our backline when it counted.

Just watched the replay again on fox.
He was in our top 3 players in the second half. Very good to see him hit some form, very important to our structure

Will Polak ever move forward, or is he now a permanent backmen?

When we drafted him I was salivating at the fact that we, by all reports, had a Lloyd-Kernahan calibre player. I know that his kicking for goal is shocking though.

Once each of Luke and Polak get their confidence and fitness back, I can see them being thrown forward or back as the game, matchups, form requires. Lucas, Ben Graham, even Neitz, Silvagni, Flecther & Leppitsch have all done it. Sure leave Luke at FF most of the time and Polly CHB most of the time, but a quarter here and there won't hurt.

Seems like each time we win the opposition is surprised by some of our moves. Lets keep em guessing.

Was really good to see him back to his old self. Gives me a fair bit more confidence with Polly back there taking grabs and hopefully add Haddrill to the mix this coming weekend and we'll be water tight once again.

If its not broken dont fix it.

What I look forward to is when his brain catches up with his ability.

Build a foward line around Pav at CHF.

Build a back line around Polak at CHB.

Yes precisely. it appears from match reports that Haze and Belly had a chat to him at half time about Extracting the digit!! Sure worked.

Now both he and Big Bird need to butter up along with 20 others V Lions.

The "C" word.- Consistency
