Woud has been decent this season to be fair. 
IIRC Woud has been POTM in 2 of the 6 games so far for them.

Basically they're vulnerable without Sakai. Elliot isn't a bad player at all, but Sakai is out of sight compared to what he bring's to AKL - defense stability, covering the back two consistently, even as a #6 in transition. Excellent decision making going forward, skills, pace and technique. Plus he consistently leads by example. No Sakai no party for AKL. We should be beating them with our current squad and the experience they have now, playing the current tactic together.
