[QUOTE="Jakedood, post: 1052434, member: 72409"] Just seen the squidge analysis, kinda interesting Murray chasing back got in the way of a fair few efforts under the high ball (9 is usually a primary blocker) Also commented on the speed of the box kick, so the opposition cant set up their blockers quite so well That and he noted one scrum where SA were grouped together but didnt bind or set or anything for a minute and a half after the scrum was called. Just standing around chatting, pretty pathetic. Took 4 minutes for the ball to leave the scrum This on top of the regular "injury breaks", I hope the ref this week doesnt allow quite so much shithousery in this area. Just for the good of the game, we want some tempo, and gaps opening up in final 20 The other thing he noted, which really shocked me, was Lawes in the build up to Mapimpi's try... Dan Biggar was screaming at his to fold round, and Lawes just stood there in LCD's area beside the ruck (so basically useless having 2 defending there), and then Biggar slapped him on the ass trying to alert him to fold, and Lawes still didn't budge. Pretty poor, nearly never seen at this level, and that extra man would have allowed Watson to cover the crossfield kick. Even more surprised with things like that that he's starting again this week Given the slow pace of the game, fatigue should be no excuse either [/QUOTE]
