strider said:i don't think Ben was poor tonight .... he wasn't great but if he had been poor we would have had plenty of trys put on us .
and the GUTS ben showed to get up and get into the defensive line and just fill a space after stuffing up his knee is what winning this game was all about
and no he didn't "bomb a try" - i agree he took a wrong option by putting in a stupid kick but there was nothing much doing there really - something other than a piss poor kick would have been better ....
fish eel said:Nah, he was poor
fish eel said:Yeah...how about though actually running the ball hard for a change ben rather than just shuffling and putting in a grandma kick. I hope this knee inury doesnt make him slower :lol:

MrT said:Strider - guess who came out of the line and got no one that left that massive gap for Logan Swann?
are we blaming that on ben too?MrT said:If Ben Smith doesn't defend well he is no use to the team.
Crocket was groggy and we never once went to that side to let Grothe run at him.
We played very dumb with the ball but our defence was exactly what wins semi's. Just hope they can keep defending like that as we have enough raw talent to score enough points to win
strider said:nah - he wasn't .... as I said, poor would have seen the warriors racking up the points
there were plenty of other grandma efforts with the boot at times tonight
sportsmad said:you think Ben's slow, wait til you watch them run round Wags
Burty to play next week and Inu to centre if Benny not fit
