If Finch is healthy I'd put him back in FG. Blake may be a liability with Penriths big second rowers and centers running at him all night.
Cannot agree with this at all.
The best part of Blakes game on Saturday night was his first half defence. He made 23 tackles for the match including a try saving tackle in the 2nd half.
The best part of the entire game was seeing Tim Smith's reaction when Blakey set up the try in the 2nd half with his cross field kick!!
FANTASTIC!!
Out of curiosity - Many many of you folk made excuse after excuse for Tim / Finch. The best excuse was they will need time to develop combinations.
How much time did Tim / Blake take to get it right??
To see a pivot who some would suggest is the most important position on a football field debut in such a manner was nothing short of amazing. Do not under estimate how good a game of football Blakey played on Saturday!!
Sure he got the support from his peers but you still have to go out their and do it.
