[QUOTE="canadafan, post: 686368, member: 69999"] For me, the greatest problem is in our backline, our forwards are giving a platform to win games, perhaps, not a solid one, but they are providing one. Our backline just has no cohesion, they are all playing like individuals. Now, I am willing to wait until we have our real first choice backline together for a few games, but it isn't looking good. Hell, Marshall made more line breaks then our entire backline. Positives: Dala was again good. Tightfive did show some muscle, except at the scrum, which was at best even. Braid was not a disaster at FH, some hope their. McRorie is great I saw some glimmer of hope with our centre pairing, but would prefer to see DTH there. Still like the idea of a Trainor - DTH combination, but I could live with a Hearn-DTH one. Negatives: Moonlight needs a lot of work at 8, hopefully Ardron or Thorpe can go there next week. TBH, I think they played a solid forward group today, and held their own. Backline really needs some time together to gel, they are running to individually and too much like 7s, not enough support running and offloads. [/QUOTE]
