Quote King Street Cat="King Street Cat"I thought we looked really lightweight in the forwards until Fifita and Battye came on, but the game was as good as gone by then. Suppose it didn't help having to play two forwards in the centres.'"
I really like Whitbread but to me he looks like a 13 more than a prop. Has a good pair of hands on him from what I’ve seen.
I still think we are one big beast of a prop short.
Whitbread looks like a 13 all day for me. Has a good pair of hands and I’d like to see him play there next week with Crowther.
Murphy was the victim of some early nerves and having a forward as your centre partner on your debut isn’t the best and the defence on edges was constantly stretched and numbered up wrong.
Thought the second half Murphy was much better though.
Full focus on Toulouse to get the season going. Still early days and a win next week is exactly what’s needed.
