Message: [QUOTE="Mister Wright, post: 2451856, member: 2160"] I personally think we all have set our standards far too high the very season after losing Darren Lockyer. I think our amazing start to the season didn't help our realistic expectations either. I was very disappointed when Hook went for Norman at 5/8th and didn't make the decision until during/after the trials. A decision has to be made now as to who will be the 5/8th next year (I personally hope it is Hunt). We had no luck with injuries post origin and there was definitely a big let down for the teams who had a large QLD contingent involved in Origin. It is obviously the hardest they've had to work in years to win an Origin. Melbourne are only just recovering now, and the Broncos didn't have the luxury of a fully fit side to ease them back in. I liked the lineup that took the field against Bulldogs and Melbourne. Norman actually offers something at fullback and the team go much better with Hunt's vision in the halves. It something that I think could become very good attacking 1,6,7 & 9. That allows us some flexibility by getting rid of the ridiculous hooker/utility on the bench. I reckon Reed could move to the bench as an extra 2nd rower who can cover the backs in case of injury. This allows us Hoffman/Kahu (or Copely) on one side and Hodges/Yow Yeh on the other. I don't really know too much about the mechanics of the team, so I could be way off track, but I really think Norman, Hunt, Wallace and Macca on the field at the same time enhances our attacking capabilities and makes us less predictable.
