I know it isn’t rocket science but our biggest issues this season is our entire forward pack, ive always been a huge fan of JWH and SST is my fav player but these 2 guys are on tired legs, they still run their rings off and add some punch just cant do it for long periods and when they come off god help us, our go forawrd and defence suffers big time, Collins is on the comeback trail so can be forgiven, the up and comers whilst still learning need to produce more and quickley.
i like Saluka Fifita, Tapu also has great potential, May in his brief time was also impressive , not a fan of Butcher, Baker or the candlestick maker. They have a case of the droppsies, no real punch in their hit ups and part time defenders.
our Backrow is even worse, Enough has been said about Chrichton and his struggles, Butcher is ordinary, tackles his heart out but offers nothing in attack, Sitilli has moments in every game but too many mis reads in defence and crabs sideways in attack, Radley when not injured or suspended the only shining light.
we have a dog’s breakfast at Hooker, Verrills is just ok, Hutch tries hard for a part timer just too slow and offers no running game or spark and Watson is a 5 minute player.
How do we expect our halves and backs to do anything with the lack of 2nd phase, quick play the balls and general go forward when we have no punch, one run from May seemed to spark something in attack.
we do not need to invest in backs, we need middles Smith is a massive addition, but is not enough, we need a Haas, Fotuaka, up front, 2 props with big motors and an offload,
its time to blow up the forward pack and rebuild
we are just lucky as Chooks fans to still be in a position to win games and compete whilst rebuilding the aquad
