For me it’s all about the spine tonight... I wasn’t overly impressed with McInnes last week and felt Hunt and Widdop played within themselves.. Dufty albeit for one error was dangerous in attack... Really hoping to see some creative spark from these lads... also will keep a keen eye on Kerr . He was great last week and a smokey in my view for Rd1.
I'm never impressed by McInnes. Granted, he makes a lot of tackles but so what? His passing from dummy half is substandard as evidenced by the drop made by Graham in the first half. Creativity (or, lack thereof) is also another major deficiency.
Expect more forward passes as the season progresses.
Dufty made more than one error against Hull, and I reckon he will get less latitude against NRL sides. I'll be keeping an eye on his one-on-one defence, and the amount of times he gets bundled over the sideline tonight.
Agreed - the halves definitely played within themselves. I loved Hunt's composure and 'one precenters'. He will prove to be an excellent acquisition.
Maybe I didn't pay close enough attention, but I didn't see Kerr providing any noticeable impact.
