| Quote hesslefan="hesslefan"I think one improvement that has got to be made is when the interchanges take place. Many other teams performances seem to improve when they start interchanging players and up the pace; ours seems to drop and the new players take time to settle in.
When Heremaia came on on Saturday it looked like he had been training with a different team; no one was putting themselves in a position to receive a pass. I don't know whether that is down to him, the other players or more probably the coaching.
Similarly I do not know why Lynch is being substituted more regularly. He generally played 70 or 80 minutes each game last season without any drop in performance. It seems a waste of an interchange but then we are not party to the information the coaching staff have about player's fitness etc.
Westerman also needs to up his game. He has scored tries but is just as likely to try a risky and unsuccessful offload or give a penalty away. He is a very talented player but =#0080FFI'm not sure about his work ethic. He should be capable of doing for us what John Wilkin does for Saints and Sinfield for Leeds; a skilful mobile forward who can lead by example and even play in the backs if required.
I think Cas will be a difficult match. They have signed some very experienced players. Their problem will be keeping them fit throughout the year.
As a final comment about Seymour - and I am aware of the news a lttle while ago. I appreciate that his confidence may have taken a knock with all the news about other half backs coming in etc but all he needed to do on Saturday was put in a competent - not brilliant, just competent - performance and he would at least have stayed in the squad or started if Holdsworth is not fit. As a professional we were entitled to at least that.
Having said all that I retain a degree of optimism about the season as a whole!'"
He's our leading tackler, leading marker tackler, and 7th in carries (2 of those above him have played 80 minutes in all 5 games, another 2 are the hookers so pick up the ball more than any other players naturally). Of all criticisms that can be levelled at him, I'm not sure his work ethic is one of them.
I really don't know what Westerman needs to do to not be singled out for criticism. Even when he's the best of a bad bunch he specifically gets a mention whilst others are overlooked. |

Agreed. One of our top 3 forwards this year IMO. |

Can we recall Nicko? |

Was out of order what he did. But isn't he on season long loan? |

Thinking about it you're probably right. There's only McDonnell from the backs worth a mention & I'd probably say Westerman 2nd in the forwards on reflection. |
