Hard to disagree. I don’t know enough to know if it’s possibly the change of side? Surely he would have had a say in doing thatI have been a big Lomax supporter, but he needs to have a stint in KOE cup. His defence has disappeared, he can't kick and his attack is very limited.
Now that was U12 play, 1st an offside penalty, Bird, lifting penalty JDB, and now late tackle penalty Bird AGAIN Dumb play, careless play and within 10 min we are rightly behind. If I was coaching right now Bird gets replacedI'm happy to see young Sloan injection into the backline looks like the right edge between Su'a and Suli his flick pass helped in that try. I like that he has listened to the critisism of him not getting involved enough. So far 8 runs for about 45m but it's the extra man in the backline that is causing a very poor Raiders team headaches. Amone running into the line is good too that's how you confuse and bend the defensive line.
However in saying that the stat's are bloody awful neither team would be in the game against better opponents. It appears we have dragged the Raiders down to our level and of course it's always difficult to get back up after a tough but unexpected win against the ladder leader last week for them. Surely the 2nd half can be a better quality
You can't coach morons like Bird even though it was soft.I just let out a big hook "f**k mooooooiii"
