He just goes through the motions with little urgency, no way should he get another year.

i have faith in smith to make the right decision,personally wouldnt offer him another year.

When he tries to offload he's a moron, his decision making process is awful. When he gets his head down, he makes alot of metres, attracts defenders and carries a threat, so he should just stick to the basics and we'd all be happy, but he never will.

Second half yesterday, the start of it, I'm guessing after a stern telling off, he was alot better, reigned himself in.

He had a shocker yesterday after playing well for a number of weeks. I thought "Its back to the bad old Rau again"

Last season for Rah, just to prone to a brain fart coughing up possession when we need him to keep hold.

Very annoying, to cough up the ball so often is stupid. Especially in such a big match.

in attack

Rah and Riley always worry me
Rah's silly offloads
Riley, the way he holds the ball at arms length just inviting a steal or a big hit fumble.

in defence

Westwood and Carvell at the play of the ball

If Westwood could keep his discipline, concentration and composure he would be an out and out world beater.

I'm happy to see Riley make way for Hicks.

I feel better when Rauhihi is on the bench rather than on the field.

Rah is a 'big unit' and if he did just the basics which is all you ask of your interchange forwards then i'd be happy with him. If he was English i'd keep him but personally i'd like to get someone else in on his quota space.

Hopefully Smith will sort Rah he needs to hold onto the ball more then i think he will be a great replacement, used to worry the same about Wedge, but Cull stopped him off loading everytime he got the ball.

Don think i would give him another 12 months though

can't see tony smith giving him another contract. also don't think woodys
been anywhere near to what he was like before he had his shoulder done.
don't think coopers quite ready yet. once morley and carvell go off you can really see the difference in the go forward. thats why i would like to see another forward like thackeray come in who really punches his weight.

It is going to be hard to get the quality of Carvell and Morley but who is out there that is realistically available?

Not sure on Thackery, would have to watch him more closely (didn't TS already get rid of him once at Leeds?)

Dropped him for the GF.

he's not been offered it as of yesterday
