Message: [QUOTE="LittleDavey, post: 2733160, member: 8255"] Yeah I did wonder if it was an exercise in mental toughness for them. If it was, they failed; but that's ok. It's Round 3. Bennett may well have seen complacency come into the squad after being a whisker from the premiership, killing it in the UK and taking out the first 2 games fairly comfortably despite not playing well. I do have to wonder if Bennett left it up to the players a little in that second half to see where they're at mentally. I don't want this squad to think they're a shoe-in for the GF again. They need to be hungry, they need to be ruthless and they need to really want it, or we will miss out. Better to reinstill those qualities early in the season rather than later, and it wouldn't surprise me if that was Bennett's goal this week. Having said that, why Offa wasn't used is beyond me. Especially losing Reed, and with how well Joe has gone in recent weeks, I was disappointed. It may have been a test/lesson for KNik. I don't know. Doesn't make a lot of sense, but I strongly believe Wayne has something up his sleeve. It was very unusual for the team to come out in the second half without their heads - it's not something we've seen since Bennett has been back. [/QUOTE]
