Message: [QUOTE="Mitch06, post: 2783996, member: 8534"] I thought Blair was exceptional for New Zealand. As soon as they got JWH's off the field (who was rubbish imo), Blair very much halted England's momentum with his work in the ruck - he talks a lot and you can just see how he positions himself, that he is very good at covering anticipating the ball movement England threw at NZ. Very much the unsung hero in that team imo! I liked how NZ used him off the bench, bringing him on around the 20-minute mark and keeping him on for a prolonged period of time. I think it is something we could heavily consider into for next year with our rotation - especially if we manage to nab Napa. Something like this: 8. McGuire 10. Napa 11. Thaiday 12. Gillett 13. Glenn/Dodds 14. Blair 15. Glenn/Dodds/Esseese/Arrow ect. 16. TPJ 17. Marshall/Niko In saying that I thought Glenn was tremendous off the bench this season. I think it's important that we experiment a lot in the pre-season to get a gauge on different combinations and rotations work if we are serious about contending next year. [/QUOTE]
