I see you got Locke at fullback I can hear someone :lol: about now (you probably know who i'm talking about) but interestingly you dropped Hohaia alltogether ??
Man, he looked so down on confidence this week, that he is not the best option for round 4 in my eyes - it's pretty simple really. The guy has had his chances for the three rounds but hasn't done enough, and while some seem to think Locke was average this week, I thought he went more than okay. But yeah, I just don't rate Hohaia as hooker, or as an option in the halves; when he was around the ruck we were as ineffectual as we were with Heremaia and Berrigan. I like his vision as the second player option, but around the ruck I don't think he offers much direction, and we are clearly lacking that - not that we're getting it from Heremaia or Berrigan. I would prefer a Mara/Berrigan pairing. To stick him straight in to that role in the top grade would be a mistake imo.
I've always been a Seymour supporter, but I would love to give a fit Shaun Johnson a run too, but I think he is a few weeks off - it might be unfair to put any #7 behind our pack at the moment anyway.
In short, we need something from our big boys, and from our hooker/halfback combination; it has been missing all season.
Finally, whoever wants to laugh at what our players or supporters do, or think, doesn't matter to me. I'm not out there slitting my wrists or calling for Ivan's or Lance's head because we are struggling. I want what is best for the team. Like it or not, Ivan wants the same thing too, as does Lance, Buster, Lucky (he had a good game - don't understand the hate)...Changes made? Sure. Whinging, crying and personal attacks because you think you are owed something from a professional sporting contest? Some people need to grow up.
