Quote ="GM1"Surely it would be wise to play him in the final 10 of the 1st half and another 10 min stint in the 2nd.
Ive never played in Super League, but after watching rugby for 25 years, I can say that any pro rl player who is given a bench spot MUST be fit enough to last more than 10 minutes. If I was Thacks I'd be well pi$$ed off. Dowes should ask for some of Moa's wages for the last few weeks!'"
Agree think the interchange has been shocking tbh, regard Moa firstly it is a waste to just keep him on the bench till the 2nd half, surely it would be far better as you said to bring him on 10 mins before the break then giving half time and a short stint at the beginning of the 2nd half and then to come back on last 10 mins.
We are playing Dowes and Cusack far too much yes they can play long periods but don't bend the line we need to rotate the impact props alongside them more.
Washbrook has to come in at 13, Radders is not a 13 should be in the 2nd row to start with Manu coming off the bench, although in saying that Manu has been superb the last 3 games despite us just passing him the ball and he does all his own work, how desructive would he be if we actually tried to put him through gaps coming from deep.
And our inability to score from inside our opponents 10 is shocking, how many times do we have a forward drive the ball in off the dummy half is shocking
