Hornby & Blacklock

[Lisa]

Didn't get to see much of the game tonight so two questions......

How did Hornby go at 5/8?

How was Blacklock's injury comeback?

 

[Soldier]

Hornby had quite a good game, he was very involved in both attack and defence.

Blacklock got over for a great try, but otherwise had a very quiet- yet solid game.

yeah thought blacklock went looking for the ball a little more a bit like a second 5/8 alot more dangerous this time round

Tingha also pulled off a good head-on tackle and forced the ball out.
He's ben out for two months so I thought he played well.

I was over the moon when Blacklock scored that try. A typical Tingha try - from the right wing, he follows the play and scores on the left side of the field. He's had an unhappy couple of months off - forced to grapple with a hamstring injury and some vicious rumours about his future at the club. To see him dive over and emphatically punch the ball in the air brought a big smile to my face.
It was a fine return all-round. His defence was solid, his positional play on kick reception was perfect, and he was a threatening presence in attack - always floating in behind Head or Hornby. Welcome back Ting.

Not to forget how good Simmonds play was to set up that that try, but f*** me, that was almost the tryscoring machine of old out there.

I thought Blacklock went ok...was very weak running the ball up.
