Quote DILLIGAF="DILLIGAF"I think you're being very harsh on him there to be honest. McGuire is one of the quickest players with one of the best steps in Super League. It doesn't take much for him to wrong-foot a fullback. There's been many a time Halley has stopped the last mine just fine and I think you're putting too much on Halley rather than giving the credit where it's deserved for what was a superb step by McGuire.
I'm not saying he was excellent or anything (and the vote was purely based on that one incident), but I think some of the criticism of him is a bit unfair.'"
I thought Halley was more of a rabbit in the headlights when McGuire came through the gap, he got absolutely nowhere near him and was easily stepped. You may think me a bit unfair but I think any half decent fullback would've made it more difficult than that. McGuire made him look pedestrian.
As for the rest of his game he contributed his usual game which is ok but nothing out of the ordinary. Of the threequarters I thought Platt had a better game.
