Quote: SCONE "Why is Lumb out of favour? He can at least tackle and pass. Thought Hallas had a good game. I thought generally we were solid up the middle. All our issues came on Leon's side where you had Macani, bloody quick and a good finisher but defensively weak, Vila who is not a centre and positionally unaware at that side, Leon who is nowhere near being fit enough to play and Cameron Smith on debut. London exploited that weakness and we ended up all over the place. I would put that in the coaches court, not the players. A third of the pitch compromised.'"
I wouldn't agree that Macani was a good finisher. Quick yes, but he hardly ever backs himself and yesterday had a case of the dropsies. I know we were probably desperate yesterday so I can excuse the selection, but in any other circumstances he shouldn't be getting near the team.
Correct though that it was that side that was always going to be a problem as soon as you saw them line up. London aren't stupid enough to not totally exploit it.
