Beaten comprehensively at our own game?
Too much left to too few, again. Thank the gods for Cripps, Kreuzer, Docherty and Gibbs.
How many of our tackles were easily broken?
Was Murphy instructed to go at 60% today?
Samo does a couple of pretty things but little that is hard/ruthless. Has he been told not to hurt himself?
Pickett, Boekhorst and Samo contributed far, far too little. All 3 should be returned to the NBs. Many of us were surprised at who was promoted and who was not dropped, ie surprised Boekhorst kept his spot and surprised Pickett promoted. Pickett is beginning to remind me of the bloke he replaced on our list - Smith... runs around a lot, jumps about a lot but doesn't actually achieve very much.
Were we instructed not to bring our 'attitude' today? 48 tackles, good of us to not bruise the Tiggers.
Good to see Meat work so hard.
Thought Graham was far from our worst.
This 'one tall' up forward isn't working.
