Rnd 1 - Overall Summary
by www.NRLnews.com

Green=Firing Amber=OK Red=Struggling



Knights - Solid performance considering no Johns, and positional changes. Defence needs work.
Dragons - Great signs here, young troops all did well under pressure. Will grow an extra leg now
Rabbitohs - Monkey off back now, great win and face abysmal Eels next week. Confidence growing
Warriors - Great recruitment has seen vast improvement, stunning first half to blow Eels away.Need to travel
Sharks - Baby steps. Ricky injecting pride into jersey, halves working and outstanding defence.
Manly - Won against poor opposition, some good signs but will need to improve. Lyon needs time at pivot.
Storm - Nervous early, but machine clicked into gear. Have talent to burn again and will be hard to beat.
Cowboys - Best team in Round 1, blistering attack and many options. Only concern maybe fitness, did tire.
Bulldogs - Good signs for Dogs with only 12 men. Missed SBW, need Sherwin back for stability under pressure.

Titans - Must be happy with first NRL game. Solid defence for most, Campbell weak link. Occasion excitement cost
Roosters - Poor first game, after good trial form - ill-discipline killed them. Need to win early or will lose confidence
Eels - Fighting with Panthers for worst performance of Rnd 1. Woeful in defence and attack. Need cohesion.
Panthers - Too much dropped ball. Players looked disinterested. Attack was non existent. Gower not happy.
Canberra - Showed some early promise. Experience needed, will learn from the loss. Won't be easy beats
Tigers - Impressive first up showing. Nice combinations, solid defence - injuries the key, need to stay fit.
Broncos - Hangover hurting them, now no Lockyer. Hunt good at 7. Need someone to step up. Concern here.
