Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 3444824, member: 1992"] As this thread is focused on the last game I'm just going to comment about it in isolation. I believe KW just doesn't support the notion that forwards, especially front rowers if selected should be fully utilised. I'm gobsmacked by the sheer madness of leaving a prop ( any bench prop ) sitting idly by for almost the entire game. Eight minutes in to the game we lose Flegler. That straight away tells you that our remaining four forwards have to do extra to cover. Essentially it's now five on four. I've always seen the game as starting with the forward battle and we were now undermanned. To me it means I now really need the bench forwards to put in a bit longer and my starting prop, Haas not as long a stint. Haas has always been played too long but it became critical to spell him, not extend his time to cover the extra workload!! I think that KW butchered the run home. Round 20 onwards was terrible after we won, somewhat against expectation in rounds 17 and 18. Round 19 was a strong win with the bench props getting 30 minutes each. I thought that was better and was optimistic KW would continue to use his gorillas correctly. Palasia got 30 minutes. Netted 40 lousy metres. RK, 8 minutes. **** me dead that is so dumb. Why bother picking a prop at all, why not anyone from the crowd instead? Nah. 8 minutes is a big enough contribution. [/QUOTE]
