A good win but a bloody lucky one again. Once again when we break the game down to its parts we find the same three names spring up. A marque game this week against 3 time Grand Finalists who have mercilessly flogged us in recent years.
King: Dropped off several tackles in the first half leading to Penrif breaks and tries. Limited game time and was not sighted when we launched our comeback which IMO was a good thing. I'm told he's carrying injuries. Nice excuse. If that's the case let him miss the game and Bryant play. Push Harriss up to Front Row. We can't afford to carry King parlous tackling against the rorters and conceded 3-4 tries in the first 20. We also can't afford to carry a bloke that only contributes 20 minutes a game with most of that being missed tackles and pwder puff hit ups.
Randall: Was bloody hopeless in with the ball in hand and did not give us any go forward. Is being hidden in defence as he misses too many. Watching him in the club after the game with a screaming baby there's obviously a lot going on his his life at the moment. So be it, but maybe he can get his life togther at the expense of the PL side rather than launch our Firsts off to a slow start. Dunley sparked the side when he came on. It's time to give Willo the number 9 to start - he was inspirational in defence in the second half and will starch us up the middle.
Monaghan: The usual error riddled kicking game and more concentirc circles run in offence. Good defence, in his defence. The half back that sparked our comeback was witt and we looked a lot better when he ran the show. I still seriously suggest that Monas 9, Witt 7 and Mullane 6 would be worth a go when we play Souths in what amounts to little more than a trial game.
Stephenson: Nothing more than a collar grabber and I've not seen him make a long break all year. Reasonable dummy half runner but that's all. Hill is the same. We can't have both Centres doing that. Alberts was sensational in PL - it's time to give him a go in the top flight for what he offers in attack.
