I don't know where to start today.
Thoughts on Orford well known. PL next week to actually show he has some desire for the club
Burns, inform him that it is legal to pass a ball, and then bring someone in to teach him how to do it. Can't doubt his commitment though
Menzies, back into the pack ole son. Never thought i would type this, but Menzies was woeful today
Overall commitment from the whole side, if a ball is on the ground, i want to see 5 blokes busting there arse to dive on it. Especially in the ingoal where we just watch them dot down.
Basic attack, no fancy bull****, if the offload isn't on, hold onto it. HARD AND STRAIGHT. If we find a weakness, attack it, dont go there once and leave it
If we get a wanker like Archer again, dont push anything or do anything stupid, eg elbow into the face from King. He is looking for ways to punish us so dont give him any opportunity, That tackle in the air from Hicks was a ****en awful call.
On a positive note, on the very few times they were given the chance with the ball, Finefeuiaki and Afamasaga looked good, Jacks 1st touch was beautiful, a nice angle then offload. Cuthberson looks to be getting better too.
My side for next week
Stewart
Robertson
Bell
Matai (if fit)
Hicks
Lyon
Monaghan
King
Ballin
Kite
Watmough
Stewart
Menzies
Burns
Bryant
Finefeuiaki
Afamasaga
Williamson unlucky, but i see him as an 80min player, or PL.
