I dont want to be negative but I dont think he should be in our side in 2011\. Dont get me wrong, I like him as a clubman and as a player, and his enthusiasm is second to none, but he just doesnt offer us anything noticeable. He is extremly slow and his hands arent great, and he doesnt have size on his side. Im gratefull for the effort he has put in the last few years, but I just think we have better options.
I know fatigue, 100 mins , extra games etc etc can be said but in the last 3 games it has become increasingly evident of other sides quicker men getting into dummy half and gaining 10-15 metres easily, particularly in that last 30\. And once someone does one, theres the obvious chain effect and you end up having 3-4 good runs in a row.
Brown, Ryan, Ayshford are all quite slow and while all have their own attributes, dont offer alot of pace, and last night for example Nightingale, Morris, Boyd, Cooper were getting in there and running us ragged. Lawrence has pace but isnt really one who goes looking for the ball (even other than these last 2 weeks). Maybe somthing to think about next year with Daniella, Moltzen coming back, or maybe any other options.
