[b:2q2mjndn]"What was it like out there Sam?"[/b:2q2mjndn] "F*cking hard mate" Queensland great Sam Backo live on telly to nine's Tim Sheridan after being named man of the match in a state of origin game in 1988.:



One Word: LOCKERS - Thats whats wrong with our attack he creates the link and unfortunatley i can't understand why Waney has decided to spell Tuson at 13 again and again he's far better as a second row he does't have the handling skills to fill that position and neither does Ben Flower he's much better at prop, i can't believe for a minute that only i can see this surely others can see that when we have to replace Lockers we seem to handicap ourselves by playing our 13 as another prop, weve done this in about 7 or 8 games this year and the outcome has been the same everytime, is this Waney playing it safe and trying to limit mistakes valuing experience over skill because for all my money it seems to have increased our error count thorough the roof and handicapped our attack, too much reliance on Sam is also not helping when we shift the ball out wide, he's class but he's not Clarke Kent, We have a proper number 13 sitting in the stands in Burke, what on earth are we playing at, throw him in and give him the freedom to play, someone needs to fill lockers boots one day the young lads have stood up all season when called upon and some have played better than the so called regulars.
Green seems to have gone down hill, Leeds are now on the charge again and if we don't change something they are the Winners of this competion again imo HANDS DOWN!

I think it is not a case of playing at 100% or 70% - I do not believe that players can switch like that.

It is quite simple - the last few games have not meant as much, there was nothing major riding on the outcome - last night was a big game and the players responded by giving that extra effort because it meant something.

Quote: jonh "Dave, we kicked well. If a good kicking game is not part of the game plan then I am not sure what should be.

As for the rest if it last night was like watching Wigan under Madge bodies in motion, dummy runners, quicker line speed, getting the ball out wide and giving it some air. We player with intent.

The final was like watching us under Noble, up the middle, no moves, no dummy runners. Totally different.

I am sure you would come on here and be over the moon if we lost some times, you have an odd agenda as a Wigan fan.'"

13 September 2013 10I thought a performance similar to their CC win from Wigan - they played well within themselves against a team that fluffed its lines on the big occasion (again). If Wigan can get O'Loughlin back they will be very hard to beat.[/i

So did I ! It's a pretty simple point I was trying to make and I have idea why you want to imply of infer anything else from my post.

And as to this "If a good kicking game is not part of the game plan then I am not sure what should be." I think you really are clutching at straws because the CC final and last night have featured the best kicking games we have had all season. They stand out as different from all the rest of the games in this regard and therefore this is why I said they were similar in that respect. A good kicking game is certainly part of the game plan in every game. Its just that these two games stand out in term of executing that plan.

Quote: TheElectricGlidingWarrior "I'm flabbergasted that people actually think Wane has been instructing them to play at "70%" or "90%" or whatever. Do people think this is a computer game where you just adjust some settings and press start? Teams play badly because they are [iout of form[/i, they lose concentration, they are physically depleted, they are human and make mistakes. It isn't intentional and not part of a plan! Honestly some of you are crackers.'"

Our attack was the best it has been for months last night. We had that pace and unpredictability about us. A lot of it came from Wanes tactics of running with a heavy pack. Personally I think that is the way we should be playing without lockers. Start with 3 props with Flower at loose and have 2 back rowers and 2 2nd rowers on the bench
