I couldn't give a flying one whether you choose to believe me or not, makes no difference to me. I know it's true which is all that matters.

| Some would be suprised to know but Gleeson wasnt on anywhere near as much as many believed. King and monaghan dont touch the 200 barrier, especially with this image rights thing, but thats another issue.
A few years ago our squad was built on overpaid average players past their best, not anymore.
Another thing to consider is the age of our squad, as players get older, johnson, morley, briers, rauhihi etc they command much less.
Re: the game, Hull were never in it imo, you hardly got out of your half. Plenty of effort but you were dominated in the forwards and looked pretty predictable. Seemed to be one or two 'stars' off a decent team again.
Berrigan was v. good and yeaman was your only attacking back that looked dangerous imo.
G. Horne is no way near good enough imo

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Terrific amount of effort put in today by us. To say their pack is on paper much better than ours, again, for me, this was not where the game was lost. Again we struggled to break down the opposition defence but at least the PTB was faster and we spread the ball wider today. Broughton took his interception really well and his chase across to Riley was excellent. Better game from Yeamo with a trademark hit. Berrigan played as well as I've seen him this season. To say the guy needs an op and is playing with injections his effort was outstanding today. Lee showed up well and G Horne had a good game defensively particularly the 1st half. King put in a couple of strong stints.
On the downside we still look like creating little. R Horne was disappointing, looked slow and his kicking was poor. Tony made good metres but was shown up again in core fullback areas. Radford offered little and both Dowes and Lee looked to have taken knocks - Lee had a huge ice pack on his knee at the end.
Disappointing to have lost, but in terms of collective effort, a big step up. That's all I ask of the players.'"
Have to disagree there Mrs B we couldn't get out of own half for most of the game. I agree the effort was there but we lost the forward battle and didn't have the tactical guile to overcome it.

And have done so regularly for 2 seasons in my view. Let's look at it another way. Instead of discussing whether we matched the opposition pack, can anyone remember the last time our pack ran over the top of the oppositions' and caused havoc ? Pack and halves should be our priority and we have started to address this but more quality is needed.

Re
Yet it took you 40 minutes to score.
I agree we were never going to win the game but to say we were never in it when the scores were level at half time is a bit silly.

2006's pack did a good job and 2007's wasn't too bad either when it had a half to guide them around.

Our pack of 2005 was one of the best in SL. Since then it has steadily gone backwards to the point where now, our pack of 2008 and 2009 is one of, if not the, worst packs in SL.
Not big enough, not aggressive enough, offers zero go-forward and still contains the likes of Radford, King, Thackray, Dowes. This is the main reason that we have quickly become a bottom four side from being in a position of strength not so long ago.
