Quote: handbrake "Couldn't agree more. Whiting is not Benji Marshall but is the best option, he can straighten up the attack (badly lacking today) while allowing Seymour to play a role he is best suited to...i.e. a pivot around which the side resolves whenever we have the ball, whichever side of the field the ball is going. Seymour is not a rabbit-out-of-the-hat type player but as a pivot he is very good (in my opinion), can execute a variety of passes both ways very well.
Also seems to me our hooker needs to be giving Seymour the ball when he is expecting it/asking for it. Don't know if I'm imagining things, but does Houghton like to go off and do his own thing from dummy half, contrary to the expectations of everyone else when in the opposition 25? Sure I noticed friction between Seymour and Houghton today (probably) about this.
In my book if a half-back is asking for the ball he should be given it.'"
I couldn't agree more , If Sharp never got injured , I'd have subbed Horne for Whiting.
