Just back from the game. Sat on the hill with a great view. I know I will get howled down but Mark looked no different to 2006. Unsure in defense and never threatened. I want him to succeed because that means the team will succeed.Guys he is not in my opinion worth the big dollars and this will probably cause some team unrest.Coops,Scott and Stanley are all better and we have him sucking the cap for 3 years hence.
In contrast Kyle Stanley looks sharp and composed. However, wish Kyle would have thrown it to Fai Fai loa about 1/2 way through the 2nd half. He went himself when the winger was a 40 metre sprint for the try. Ben Hornby had a serious word to him I notice.
Anyway, it just wasn't our night, two tries disallowed, Sowie almost around the fullback for a try, 50/50 call on Priddis penalty goal. Panthers are a very good side.

. I personally would stick with Scott in the centres or even Stanley at least till Gaz gets some real training under his belt, he was never really tested tonight in defense and looked vulnerable when they did go his way, especially next to Soward.
