Message: [QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3106050, member: 9326"] This was Croft's debut game for the club. Sure, he's had a preseason, but nothing can replicate getting out on the field. I'm not even slightly concerned about what I saw from Croft at this stage. I think all of the small problems he had will improve in the proper 80 minute format with time to gel, and some of them may well correct almost overnight. As for Isaako, we don't need him to ball play. Hardly any of the elite Fullback's ball play these days. I'm 100% sure this was a Nines problem and that it won't be an issue in regular games. We finally have two very competent Halves and we now even have a Dummy Half who is coming on leaps and bounds with his pay making, so I'd be very concerned if we had plans to use Isaako as a ball player as well. The only time I want him to see the ball on the 4th and 5th tackle is when he's putting it down over the try line, passing it on to someone who is putting it down over the try line, or taking a shot at a field goal. Fifita has hardly had a great off season and it should come as no real surprise that he's started out looking a bit flat. Let's see where he's up to in a month from now when he's ideally in better shape and hopefully the off season problems are long behind him before we start to get too concerned. [/QUOTE]
