Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3113343, member: 8988"] I said at the start of the year Oates needs to start making the transition to the second row. I'm not sure why he was off his game but he seems to struggle That seems petty. The left side wasn't used in attack but was solid defensively. Both boyd and Oates went looking for ball (Boyd more so) and under those circumstances it's all you can ask for. Oates handling was bad but some nights that's how it goes. I'm not saying either was outstanding but Oates can bounce back from this and Boyd basically got his job done. Our right side shined in attack but was also caught out in defence (a bit like last year but not as bad). The difference between then and now was we used our forwards effectively (all of them, starters and the bench) and we played with purpose and good leadership. In short the difference was croft, and carrigan. I think carrigan could our stand out player this season and his influence on those around him was for all to see in the way the less famous forwards of our pack lifted tonight. [/QUOTE]
