Gibbs is struggling?????WTF?????He's our only bloke who runs it(and tackles)with any oomph?????Did you mean to say Gibbs?????
Please explain??????
when i look at a young prop the first thing i look at is how willing they are to make the hard yards.
yes he is making tackles,but there is a big difference between running at 1 player and smashing him with the aid of another and running it up yourself with 2 or 3 forwards coming to smash you.
over the last month i have noticed he isn't putting his hand up when we need the hard yards.
so i had a look at how he went against the big boys again and see he couldn't even make more than 8 hitups against the broncos,panthers,dragons and against the roosters i don't even think i counted 5 times he took it up.
it was no surprise to see the only time he has made double figures was against souths and manly.
then you look at our backrow and they are having to ruck it up the middle when a bloody prop should be making those hard yards.
