| Watching the game back, we used blair a few times as a kicking option and generally all of the kicks hit the deck and turned around the fullback/wingers. Great game plan/management.
For me Blair is the most underrated player in our team and while the plaudits get handed out to campese and kelly ( rightly so, they are immense!) we should not fail to recognise what he brings to the team. I imagine he is one of the first names on the team sheet every week for chezzy and he is such a solid pro.
Top recruitment again by the BOD's.

100% agree with this. Has really added some guile and graft to our left side. Not only underrated but understated as well. Top signing.

| Looks like he has a really good attitude. Thought he was coming over to play at 6 but Campese put an end to that. Not playing in his usual centre position because of Welham but he has just got his head down and nailed a spot in the second row. I bet he is a pleasure to coach.
Our overseas recruitment this year has been unbelievably good. Fair play to Chris Chester for identifying them and Mike Smith for securing them.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Totally agree on the kicking option.
As a leftie, I'd like to see what some of his kicking from ball in hand is like from penalties.
My one slight criticism of Campese would be that he doesn't make a lot of metres from left to right kicks.

| No idea, at the time I always thought it was weird, he's the only player in either code that I can ever recall doing that (bloody effective it was too!), so I can't see the rules having been changed.

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

| Adds another dimension to our options/play in the similar mold that Ben Galea did.
Very reliable left peg too.

| He has always been a bit under rated because he doesn't look like much of an athlete.
He's a better centre than second rower - not that I've seen him play much second row.
