Either way I think you are a little out with this one.
The stats don't show the whole story, by far, it's just you seem to cling to them in most arguments.'"
Yes the stats don't show the whole story that was my point about Cross. If you look again at some of his drives he was taking the ball into collision at full speed without hesitation.
Overall our forwards stood up to be counted. I don't understand the lack of game time for Clarkson or Leuluai (Cross went off injured) unless they were injured and this may have contributed to others being tired at the end of the game. Also we had a day less to rest/prepare for the game.
In the end you could argue it was our backs passing & defensive errors that really cost us the game.
