Message: [QUOTE="NSW stables, post: 3296415, member: 10150"] 100% right. The second rower is supposed to slide and protect/assist the halfback. Glenn does not do this and is always virtually standing shoulder to shoulder with the middle forwards and that is what largely fucked our left side defence. Because glenn was not sliding or pushing from the inside, Herbie was so worried about leilua isolating croft in the line that he kept coming in to protect/assist the half. This is not excusing herbie, he played the worst game of his career today. He did not talk to oates and left him marking 3 to 4 players at a time. Our right side defence looks a lot better which i am putting down to gamble (and absence of coates). When they are defending you can see him communicating with his team mates and pointing at the attackers. Staggs does not rush in as often anymore because of this. Croft contributed **** all today. 2 kicks, some shit little runs, failure to send the ball wider than glenn (who has become a major ball hog) and being a major target in the defensive line. If kelly is not good to go next week, may as well get katoni in at 6 because gamble basically did the organising, ball playing and kicking himself anyway. [/QUOTE]
