Quote: GiantDee "The match was lost in the first 12 minutes - 18 points down.
Kopczak, Robinson and Lunt all gifted tries with pathetic defence in that period.
Someone said Koppy did well - I find that astonishing, he can be a very good prop, but he looks way off the pace. I would recall Kaufusi and give
Koppy a good rest.
Robbo is another that needs a rest', again he can be a very good player but is currently awful. As well as being directly responsible for 2 Saints tries his passing last night was consistently behind the man.
Just checked stats on SL website - pathetic. Koppy 7 carries for 46, given the minutes he played that is just lazy.
As a pack we only made Masoe make 12 tackles, that confirms my feeling that we didn't even try to dominate a Saints pack weakened by injuries.
Only Blackmore has decent stats.'"
I believe I said it. I'm not one for stats or anything like that but watching the game Koppy didn't just surrender or flop when coming into contact with the opposition. He broke the line again which he has done a few times recently. He got back into the line quicker than he has done recently. He looked eager which is all we can ask for. He's not at his best yet but stood out for me in a team were most lacked any enthusiasm.
He's been getting abit of stick recently... He's not blind to it so to show fight is encouraging.
