Message: [QUOTE="Sirlee oldman, post: 2804867, member: 8915"] Without seeing the stats I think some of you guys are being a bit harsh on Jo Offa. He made a couple of errors but his involvement was good. He's a certainty to be in the team for round 1. All the outside backs were poor and both halves were diabolical. Macca was good and Gillette, Glenn and Thaiday were ok for this stage of the season. McGuire isn't a lock yet but can be forgiven one bad game because we know he's a quality player. The young forwards weren't terrible but if the team gets off to a bad start then we clearly can't rely on them to get us back into the game. For that reason I would start with Jo and bring Sims and Glenn off the bench to keep the experience level up across the 80 minutes. The refereeing was abysmal. Apart from some very poor individual performances there was also some things we were very bad at as a team. Getting Blair back will hopefully put a lot more pressure on their kicker but our kick chase needs to step up dramatically or NRL quality fullbacks will slaughter us. We need much faster play the balls and to slow theirs down. Arrow seems to be the only one consistently putting players on their back. All in all a disappointing performance but I'm not panicking yet. [/QUOTE]
