Clon, there's no need to get personal. What I fail to understand is your disdain for Halden. You bagged him in your first post. You claim he 'stifled progress' in your second, you then say that 'having Ballin of the field might have hurt us', but no tries were scored when he was of, so there's no 'hurt' while he was replaced by Halden. You then state that Halden is not Ballin. I agree, he's not. so what? Your last claim is that Halden 'slowed down our momentum'. Quite the observation given we scored in the last ten minutes of the game, granted I don't think Halden was on the field at that time to my recollection. Momentum in that game waxed and waned as the defense from both teams was intense. And it waxd and waned as the bench players came and went. However the game is a team thing and to point the finger at any one player is a little misguided, (except if the finger is pointed at Monas, Dunley or Matai) I realize there's currently a love affair with Ballin on this site, justifiably at the moment as I readily admit he's going great, but give Halden his due, he tackles what's required and delivers OK to his runners and I don't worry when he's on. So get over yourself.
