Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2599019, member: 1899"] Nah, Inu on his day is one of the most talented backs in the game. Played a big hand in the Eels reaching the prelims, grand final and same with the Doggies initially. Sadly he can be shit and arguably always has been. Don't know what it is, just think he's too passive because as an athlete, there is a ton who'd want his ability. I'm still shocked at Canberra under Stuart... I would have thought he'd come into help bring the team some discipline and really strike a nice balance between youth and experience. While the Raiders recruitment left a lot to be desired, they still had plenty of young talent on their roster worth risking. However, Sticky seemed to stay true to his nickname and virtually stuck to the same gameplan as Furner...only looking to bring in Shannon Boyd who I believe was on the outer beforehand. The big problem I have with Stuart is the way he's handled Cornish's development. Now, I could understand looking to blood Cornish off the bench to begin with but to wait 10 weeks to do it, then drop him after one bad performance is just bad form. Mitch has a lot to learn about first grade football, but he's only going to learn about it if he gets the opportunity. Being made the scapegoat of a bad team performance to me is just a horrible decision. It's changes to their halves & hooker that Sticky really needs to consider. Only then will the Raiders be able to recover. Meanwhile, Canterbury weren't much better but they just kept their composure and made the most of their opportunities. Didn't think they played that well, but their pack had the edge and the backs made the most of their opportunities. Lafai in particular did well to set up Low on two occasions, while Thompson exposed Allwood's experience with a nice in and a way that left Allwood completely flat footed. They'll be right the Bulldogs. I don't think this is their year but they'll continue to keep teams honest. [/QUOTE]
