3 Tries bombed, with the tryline open and one of their tries involved a player who was about 5 metres offside, means despite the awful game we played, we really go down 30-20 to Penriff.
I'm not death riding quite yet, and don't think DRASTIC changes need to happen - yet. I just think some positional tweaks are needed to minimise the defensive issues.
1\. Tedesco
2\. Nofoluma
3\. Idris - Needs to stand up and be an 80 minute player - he's a centre for christ sake!
4\. Suli - Slight defensive tweak bring him one in - is a lot more solid in defence compared to Naiqama
5\. Naiqama - Chuck him on the wing - Suli has shown himself to have a good offload, and his size should be able to get 2- players interested and create issues.
6\. Moses
7\. Brooks - play him second fiddle, Give him carte blanche to take the line on, and give primary kicking duties to Moses.
13.Taylor
12\. Aloiai
11\. Lawrence
10\. Woods
9\. McIlwrick or Ballin/Liddle if fit - and 80 minutes.
8\. Seumanfagai
14\. Tim Grant -
15\. Aloiai - however needs more minutes than vs Penriff
16\. JJ Felise
17\. MCK
Idris and our hooker need to stand up for 80 minutes to give our forwards a chance against the monster Raiders Pack - who will also have big Dave Taylor coming off suspension, and Ricky would be odds on to put him into a team against us.
It's now time for our bounce back factor to kick in.
What about Sue??
