Quote rhinoms="rhinoms"Bleedin ell Gotcha what did the kid do wrong ? his defence was pretty solid and he didn't get a decent pass all day.
Ok he spilled the ball a couple of times in the tackle playing in monsoon conditions on a bog of a pitch which btw most of our team did.
For me our worst performers were Burrow ,Kirke and Achurch ball in hand and defensively whilst we conceded 2 tries i thought all of them had a dig.'"
Come on rhinoms, firstly he is not a kid, and secondly what did he do well?
Let's also drop this bog of a ptich thing, because it didn't bother the oppossition.
In order to take a jersey in this team you need to play well when the opportunity arises, and contribute something. Not "not a lot wrong". That was the point I was making, and further stated that I was talking about him in the wing position.
9 carries and 3 dropped balls, along with the missed tackle, the poor positioning for kicks, and the lost at sea stance demonstrated. A game that needed players to pull their sleeves up and work hard, and he wasn't there for it. Vickery made as much contribution last week in 20 minutes. I would have said Vickery's permonce last week was "not a lot wrong" considering it was only 20 minutes, so I can't see how this week could be compared.
I find it strange aswell that you picked out 3 players as "worst performers" and yet their contribution exceeded what Keinhorst gave us. I agree their performances were not good, although I would definitely argue that Kirke really gave us good needed yardage when asked to.
Compare all the wingers performance from that game Sunday, then you will see what I was saying. It wasn't a write off of him, I just questioned that we must have better options at winger.
