Quote: jools "I agree Dwyer seems to be trying a bit too hard- but there was one instance when he chased down a break and I turned to my other half and commented if Lunt had been on he wouldn't have had the speed to do that. He's doing a job- but I really don't see how it's benefiting giants long term. He can't play in the CC games and we will come across wire again in the playoffs at some poinr which means we need an alternative anyway for the QF and POs. I'd rather give leeming a go and at least it's benefiting us for next year and for the end of the year when we will need someone!'"
Yeah that's the defensive effort I was talking about. The passing could be due to "trying too hard" I agree, but either way I would rather see Faiumu spell Lunt for 15 mins a game and then spend the rest of his time in the back-row or at prop and Leeming to get the occasional run out.
Long term, maybe if Kyle Wood is coming back to the Giants he might become the replacement hooker on a permanent basis or move to 7 with Robinson once again moving to dummy half; though personally I can't see this as Lunt can do a decent 60-80 mins.
