He deserves alot of praise tonight, he played really well for me (I'm only trying to find some positives) He took his try very well and his defence was good too..

I was impressed with his defence and also he has some pace.
Saints mom for me. Best winger at the club for me
Very good game tonight for him.
Nobody said life would be easy
have to agree .. did very well showed guts ...
the best full back we have.
Agree, they targeted him early on and he wasnt found wanting.
Ready made replacement for Wello when he decides to retire.
well burrows got mom and to be fair my seat was in a gash position to judge much but makinson really stood out for me for saints he did everything and so solidly and mature
He has got the potential to be a superstar. All the ingredients are there: pace, solid under the high ball, great defence and showed last night he can produce the 'x-factor' moment with that kick through
definitely got to be brought on as a full back next year, as much as i love wellens he was simply embarrassed by burrow last nite who went round him as if he wasnt there, Makinson looks safe under the high ball and is fast enough to add another dimension to our attack... as others have said wello should be played at loose or second row
I think Makinson was brilliant last night. I think he may very well be full back next season. I would have Wello on the bench. His experience is vital and he can play in the backs or in the pack. We then get to use all 17 subs every week.
Yeah, that's where I see him too. He's a pretty reliable player, his kick returns are full of energy and speed and he has real quality and potential about him. Given an extended run at full back I think he'd flourish and could make that position his own. He's certainly got enough about him to be a mainstay of our team whether it be on the wing or at full back.

Makinson had his best game for Saints in a Grand Final, he's got pace i think time will tell as to what his best position is.
I agree but if it is ok to say so i also thought that Dxon had a very good game.
