Henry won't do anything of the sort ... he'll go straight to coach-speak. I was pretty happy with with the game but thought that our outside backs have no penetration at all.
MacDonald outpaced the defence which surprised me but Hoffman, Don, Mead and Zillman all for different reasons never troubled the line at all. I am also happy to be classified as a ridiculous Zillman hater. He offered nothing that any younger emerging player could offer and to state that he did nothing wrong is just as ridiculous. Like Toads, I don't blame him for being selected, that's his luck but it doesn't make him worthy. Anybody feel McQueen is playing on the wrong side?
Paasi is a forward. His job is to make meters and tackle. He is not some sort of attacking genius and is going pretty well for mine, as is Pulu. The forward back played well today against a very good pack. I wouldn't swap one player of our pack based on commitment.
Our half's went pretty well too and what can we expect from two newbies? My hat off to them. We all know our outside backs are mediocre and that was the ball game. Pity about their first try, it could have been so different.
