Message: [QUOTE="CaptainHook, post: 2580738, member: 8315"] Well, the 40-0 scoreline would suggest the whole team did under perform. It is unfair though, as I thought Cooper Cronk was outstanding but they clearly didn't handle Smith's suspension well. I wouldn't call it one game - it was just an example. Another is the game a fortnight ago. I remember a few games over the years when they've copped a heavy loss without Smith (I think even the Broncos did a number on them one game a few years ago, with him missing). It is surprising considering they've been such a great defensive side. I can understand their attack being stifled as he gives such great service from dummy half but their defense is shocking when he's not there. I can't explain that. Do you have to be Cameron Smith to tackle? They might turn out to be a one man band a la the Fittler-led Roosters side in the late nineties. [/QUOTE]
