Message: [QUOTE="Cult, post: 3123556, member: 8468"] Lodge seemed quiet last night too, but Flegler and Carrigan were definitely noticeably looking good. I just think there's better options for these guys to aim at in the defensive line. In touch footy we'd arrow at the same player so they'd get tired. In the NRL the markers aren't getting tired making tackles on blokes like Ofa and Lodge because they go straight to the ground and lose whatever wrestle occurs on the ground. If they're going to arrow in they need to get to the ground quick, stand up and play that ball ASAP, like Thaiday used to. Otherwise it's just a waste of time. I don't even want to talk about Oates. The only excuse I had for him staying on the wing was that we'd miss his hit ups taking us out of our half so if he's not doing that anymore he can play elsewhere. I want to see how Fifita would go in the centres, out of curiosity. He's the most Inglis-like of anyone compared to Inglis ever in my opinion. A lot has been said about Seibold getting rid of a few players but I can't help but believe a McCullough or McGuire would have helped out our defense last night. We used to win games with our defense, now we are kinda crap at both attack and defense. We had a lot of flukey, unstructured play in our first two games that led to tries, but they can't play unstructured if they can't catch a ball. I think that's what is most disappointing about this team. Their inability to hold onto the ball when there's no pressure on them. Hopoate should have been hooked last night and Seibolds lack of awareness or wanting to stick to his plan was a bit shocking to be honest. If you're that off you need to come off. [/QUOTE]
