Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 2596458, member: 1847"] I thought Hoffman proved his worth to the team last night. He made some important tackles, kicked ok a few times and ran well and actually passed. But he is still not a 5/8 and we suffer because of that, no matter however else he tries to compensate with an otherwise good game. If he keeps that up, and Barba keeps improving, and Hunt plays a bit better than last night, we are a very good side. We made far too many mistakes and that was a worry. I'll put it down to the weather haha. I also thought as a few others observed, the Raiders played some very "assertive" football, lousy execution and their edges look in Disneyland. Campese was sod ordinary. Cornish looks the goods to me. Very quick off the mark and thinks, but he's just too inexperienced. However I reckon he is all class and will mature into a very fine player. Barba looked more enthusiastic than I have seen this year. What a good sign, and his defence and running the ball back were good. I thought he was way better than Milford on the night. We let them run way too far in the 2nd half especially before our line, gave them way too much space. Against a quality side, that alone would have made life very hard. Still, a good and important win, if a scrappy game [/QUOTE]
