Message: [QUOTE="Number6, post: 2846523, member: 9008"] More balanced team. Would have liked a bit more aggression than Glasby for a 30 minute stint to create some momentum with Kafusi or Sims (not that I'm enamoured with his form) or experience of Lilyman but willing to give him a go if they have a clear strategy to strengthen the middle in defence. Agreed looking a bit NSW desperate needed changes but not that many. Oates should clearly have been retained, played well despite the kitchen sink being thrown at him. Holmes isn't playing that well at fullback, was average in test match on the wing and Oates takes pressure off forwards to get set rolling. Regardless of the stats re meterage in Nrl, his size is vital against origin defensive lines with our smaller pack. Holmes is used to playing off the back of a big pack which helps. Holmes is good but yet to be convinced about the hype, wouldn't be shocked if he turned out to be another Hoggman type (brilliant on the wing in NRL but is left wanting at a higher level or at fullback +\- delusions of grandeur that derail it all). Myles and Guerra needed to be sacked, Thaiday was deservedly on notice so can't be upset but needed to retain some experience on bench with Lilyman. Nervous about Gagai in defence at centre but can't be worse than O'Neil at least we hope... [/QUOTE]
