Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3268902, member: 9853"] [I]Roosters coach [B]Trent Robinson [/B]was thinking of resting [B]Sam Walker [/B]but didn't forsee him being shut down for the first time by [B]Tevita Pangai Jr [/B]and the [B]Broncos[/B] wrecking crew:[/I] “I thought about it a couple of weeks ago, but we’ve got a bye in a week and that’ll be a good opportunity for him to rest up. You want to get that balance between being uncomfortable and learning that there’s a lot that goes with the NRL, and also to make sure you look after a young guy coming through as well.” “I think we’ve had two teams that have moved their back-rowers over to that side to target him, and that’s normal. If we handle it really well then that means they’re going to have to change game plans to target him, so that’s a benefit to us. But when you don’t handle it well, it ends up being a negative for you. The opportunity is there for us to control the opposition game if they do that, but in doing that, we have to defend well and Sam has to do that.” McHunt [/QUOTE]
