It was Woods who put Sau over, very mixed half from Woods imo but thought Riddy ( who was the most slimline seen him in years) was very poor and off pace, two intercepted passes thrown and kicked ball dead on only short kick attempted. Unfortunately I feel Riddy has been great servant to club but will only be 4th choice half this season. Very impressed with Ioane, Hellewell and Glohe in the pack, Mason went well too and thought young Holroyd was our best winger on show. Promising signs but lots to work on in my opinion. Would like another big mobile prop, and a quick outside back adding to squad if possible ( maybe the 2 SL loans)

wayne, you seem to be the stand out guy who has show in the past a dislike for Ridy when you was the publican I do read these forums, harold hasnt shown his dislike.

I can see whats happening here, the club have made ridy part time and making up his money through his testimonial and then wanted him to take part in some coaching role foc. disgraceful if you ask me. so what should we expect from him after being treated like that.

very good

The reluctance of the club to invest in Middles (props) is mental. It seems to be some sort of tactical choice to have a small pack.

We will be bullied again in the middle this year. Its no good investing in halfbacks and centres when we are losing the middle channel battle.

I agree that we need a bit more clout up the middle to make headway, and protect the halves, or defend the middle and make team try to go around us.
My hope is still that this will be addressed by the two loanees and the possible overseas signing (though they are still to be seen I admit)

Who will bully us ?
