To win a competition, you need a good halves combination. It's a no brainer really.

Daniel Holdsworth and Reni Maitua is quite simply a poor halves combination. The Bulldogs will not come close to winning the competition with these two - it's time for Sherwin to come back to FG. Maitua is a fine player, but a five-eighth he is not.

The Bulldogs have a great forward pack - one of the best in the NRL. But they will struggle without a good #7 and #6. Holdsworth does just not fit the bill in either position. He isn't good enough.

My two cents.

The halves have no penetration and no creative flair. They're solid but as stated, they're not up to scratch to win or for mine, to cause havoc to other teams.

Pretty hard for Sherwin to come back soon since he broke his hand.

Wasn't aware of that. In any case Holdsworth isn't good enough.

Hows Ben Roberts going in PL?

How are they going to catch a ball with their fingers all stuck together?

Good point. Still, if they catch the ball it will be stuck to their hands.

:lol: at Holdsworth. I think thats the first pass he has created a try from this year. Maybe I was wrong about creativity.

Holdsworth has always been average, i dont know why Bulldogs fans have been singing the praises of him...

He's certainly not a halfback. I think he goes ok but he doesn't have the organisational skills to be running the side.
