Quote: lothlorian "The one thing we have seen from Sinfield is this flat pass that has had a big red cross on it time and time again. It hasnt been a one off, its been in each of the games so far. He is not an international standoff. He has a great kicking game and is a leader on the field but i would prefer to drop Heighington ( not been impressed) put Sinfield at 13 and start Widdop. We should be building for the future and we have a superstar youngster who ripped up the NRL having to make way. Sinfield has his qualities but he shouldnt be our starting 6.'"
Regarding the flat passes, I kind of take your point but bear in mind he's trying to break down the best defennces in the world so he has to take it to the line and take some chances. I just don't see why you'd change Saturday's team at all. Sinfield has won 2 Grand Finals at 6 and he's not looked at all out of his depth at 6 in this tournament, quite the reverse IMO. I've not been that impressed with Heighington either, but again, why change it now?
