Just watching the highlights on LUTV and it reminded me about one of the best bits of yesterday. Early doors Ponuts went flying into a tackle - one that Hunter or Vinny would have been proud of, took the ball cleanly so no foul but really smashed into the attacker who went down like a sack of spuds and stayed there for a bit, and never really fancied it after that. A real blood and thunder but legitimate tackle. Pontus just got up and walked away with a huge grin on his face, he loved that one , and then gave a huge two armed 'come on' to the fans !! Great stuff and the things that make certain players into cult heroes. He really has made a huge difference, but has everyone on edge thinking that when we sign him he will turn shit like so many other CBs (O'Briein, Bamba, Zalilukas etc etc) - having said that he really does look a cut above those others and does have a good pedigree. He is a real defender and looks like he just loves defending (as does Bartley) rather than being a would be winger a la Bellusci or Bamba.IF he keeps fit (and not suspended) then the defence will be solid
