Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3194619, member: 1847"] I rate Brimson on his performances with the Tits and Game 1. He is a threat running the ball against any opposition. He is all class. Capewell, a competent back rower looked good in Game 1 ONLY because NSW were utter shite. His inadequacies as a centre were exposed last night defensively, and as part of an impotent backline attack. He plays centre, we lose, or rather, that adds to the other reasons we will get flogged - if Friend plays and Holmes continues to plod, Sami continues to be bog average or less on the wing, Coates who I love, is out of his depth. For mine, we have, without Munster and Grant at a minimum, absolutely no strike power in the backs and taking on the line up the middle. We can match NSW in the forwards, we can match them in the middle but the issue for me is that we have - as with the Broncs, no attacking strike at all in the backs. We need to score points at the same rate as them. With those impotent backs and FB, we have no chance of that. As well, I feel Tino is wasted at lock. He should be in the back row running on the edges. Just on the importance of the FB game, look at Tedesco - he played most of the game up front, behind the ruck, always a threat to our middle and edge. Very similar to what Slater used to do to NSW in his day. Where was Holmes? NSW use Cook and Teddy to shred us on the fringes and up the middle. We have absolutely no answer with the team last night. I am curious to see what Bennett does with this side for next week. [/QUOTE]
