Message: [QUOTE="Dexter, post: 2503330, member: 1978"] On the other hand it could show he is feeling a little pressure. We may win because we have better strike power but I cannot see why we would copy the NSW blueprint which as yet has failed to beat us over a 3 game series. I've never subscribed to the reasoning that a second rower can do a props job just because they are the same size and weight.. The size of the players isn't that different but you have to have that mindset to be a prop. You have to want to do it. Taylor and Thaiday are perfect examples of that. Not only have we copied a losing blueprint we go that bit extra and pick only one prop. DCE was also a selection which could compound the mistake of not picking props. There is no way IMO he will get on the field if the game is close, Mal will not replace a proven big game performer if the game is in the balance so it looks like it will be 16 on 16. If he gets on the field we will either be getting spanked or doing the spanking. So when Scott is off after 20 mins we will have no genuine props on the field, when our starting props get replaced at least one of our starting second rowers has to move to prop. With this side to me we have to use a different game plan and I can't see that happening, we will use the same plan with the wrong players. It's dumb and unnecessary. [/QUOTE]
