As is blaming Hall for the same. Or Briscoe the other week.

I've said it all year. Our wingers/centres are over exposed far too easily by the middle defenders being dragged in, but then again, hall is a scapegoat and whiting isnt

Hall gets mainly criticised for his errors and Briscoe generally gets criticised for not dealing with the high ball. Anyone blaming a winger for not dealing with a 3 man overlap is not worth bothering with anyway.

hmmmmmmmmmmm whiting is never shocking,made a mistake or two, but hey so what.

Easy to say after you won.

The point was Why have a player on the bench if you not going to use him!

Probably the same person who started this thread.

But why make a substitution just for the sake of it. Our forwards won the game tonight and it was the rotation of them that allowed us to keep that dominance throughout the 2nd half. Hall would have been used if one of the outside backs got injured but no one did so he was required.

He does make some rash decisions, poor attempts and get caught out though. Hell of a lot more than Whiting/Briscoe do

Trouble is mate Hall regularly takes the wrong option when there isn't an overlap. That's why he gets criticised and rightly so. If he didn't do it he would be a far far better player.

I said to a mate earlier that if Hall had 4 tries scored down his side he would be slated but Whiting would escape critiscism. Whiting had an extremely poor defensive game today.

Yes wasn't one of Whiting's best for sure. Washbrook's attempted tackle on Meli in the second half was poor as well.

Whiting's kick chasing late in the game was superb, and it was no surprise that he came up with the ball from the short kick off at the end.

Meli was a handful all night wasnt he.

Defensively in the first half we looked suspect all over the park.

Agreed Meli seemed very up for it tonight, wanted a confrontation it appeared with anyone who tackled him (that's when we managed to of course)
