Unfortunately Benji has a bad habit of moving Api to half,i certainly hope and pray he does not do it this week as the idea of Hope at 9 sends shivers down my spine.
It should be Maddens job this week to try and organise our attack,it will be a big job but at least he is a genuine half back.Our depth for the backline this week will be fully stretched.C'est la vie.
We played poorly and the score flattered us (4 tries to 2).We lacked creativity in attack (like most years) and defended below par.We miss Latu so much as he really gives so much more direction to our attack.
I don't know how old you are but back in the 1960's there used to be a horse called Pirate Bird that used to get 20 or 30 lengths ahead of the field and try to win races,a real crowd favourite and to be honest it did win a few times.
R.I.P Garry,condolences to all his family and friends.I have many memories of him in his playing days.A true gentleman on the field during the days when many props were anything but.
