Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3432043, member: 1899"] The Broncos just got blown off the park in the opening stanza. Lodge, JWH and Radley were on song and to compound the loss of Carrigan the Broncos also lost Flegler and the Roosters ran away with the game. Suaalii really was a handful and even when Reynolds would put together a great kick to swing momentum they'd just go Suaalii, Manu, Tedesco, Tupou and the Broncos are on their heels. It's where they really missed having Farnworth with his carries. Him and Oates are fantastic at swinging the tide but Oates was off his game tonight, Mariner struggled early after picking up a shoulder injury and the only time Cobbo looked likely was swinging on loose passes from the Roosters. It's where Staggs really needs to develop a dummy half run in his game, even if he only makes 10, get the good quick play the ball and get the team on the front foot. I thought the attack the entire night was out of sync. Even on the scrum, Walters was lost twice trying to find who to run it to, the players weren't running the right lines, halves were forcing passes and there just wasn't enough variation. Ezra just stands on the same patch of grass, steps inside and hopes to link with his outside men. It was the type of night where the second-man play was on and they really ought to have returned to that Corey Oates play. I think that would have been the go tonight and then you either give Kotoni early ball or you swing it back to the middle and play off a Haas offload. Unfortunately the boys played like it was free hit after it was 18-0 after 18 or so minutes. Going into the game I saw it as an each way bet. I still think Tesi has more upside than TMM and if he and Mariner stood up in this game great. However they couldn't rise to the occasion, so TMM can come back in for a home game under less trying circumstances. I still have don't have as big an issue with it as others seem to. [/QUOTE]
