Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 2571319, member: 1847"] I can't figure out what is going on with Barba. His lack of involvement bothers me. We signed who many think was/is a superstar, and in these 7 pages, he gets what, 3 or 4 passing mentions? Is he injured? Is our game plan so different to what he is used to that he can't figure out what to do, or we just don't give him the opportunities? Frankly, I was disappointed with his showing given the wraps on him, and his previous form. If he is injured, he shouldn't be there. If we don't know how to use him, we ought to learn. Yes, he has done some very nice things so far, but for mine, too few and far between, and I have been expecting so much more from him. Hoffman. We will meet a top side soon where we will need serious, consistent play making creativity to win by actually scoring points rather than hoping our defence will win us the game by stopping points. That kick was good, his defence was great but 5/8? We will learn hard lessons soon. I still would put Barba at 5/8 We really don't know how to set up our outside backs consistently. Copley has been so good yet he hardly gets the ball. Reed is squashed in a narrow corridor. Parker must move back to lock and start offloading. I don't remember one last night. What a waste. I thought Hunt was ok but really needs that kicking game to come good real soon. Overall, a very good effort. As BP said, it was won on character and determination which shut the Cows down more than anything. Trouble is, we can't really capitalize on it in attack .... so far. [/QUOTE]
