Message: [QUOTE="koshy, post: 2610033, member: 8702"] Agree with the Barba sentence..His move the 5/8 has actually been a surprise and imagine if his forward pack was giving him some time to move rather than making Hunt and Barba play off the backfoot the whole time...Even the Broncos forwards themselves have come out and said other bigger forward packs have come out and put it on them and they didn't match up at times during the season...Its a similar scenario as the first origin game where we came in under sized with a 'mobile' pack and it completely backfired on us..NSW rolled us through the middle and DCE/Thursto had to play back foot adlib the whole game...At the Broncos its the same.. I don't feel Hunt is given much space to work with at times and that comes down to the performance of the pack he is playing behind - A great forward pack makes average pivots looks great (bulldogs number 6 and 7) but a forward pack that is only just holding there own makes it very hard for the halves to be assertive...If the Broncos pack can give hunt and barba some room I believe you would see a huge improvement..Hunt tried his ass off last night and yes he played poorply but he seemed very frustrated at times...
