Swap the centre around and let Hall play on his more natural side, add Whiting to the creative mix.

Works for me.

Doubt we'll see it, though.

The one thing that stood out for me though, was that we still had no attacking ability when he went off.

Although he was replaced by a one-legged player who's been out for weeks and hasn't been training at half even when he was fit. And he still created more, even if he had no pace and the timing of his passes was a bit off. Plus the game had gone and the players were visibly down, especially after the mistake from the drop-out.

Basically, I don't think we can judge the attack with Berrigan at half based on that 40 mins.

I would go with that, but may be (just may be) I would swap King for Moa.

I would let Thorman go. He is clearly not up to it. I could give a lengthy monologue on why but, basically, I think the crux is that he offers us nothing in attack and nothing in defence. His, sometimes good, kicking game was not even on display last night. I'd rather see Lee given a longer chance at 7 than carry on with this debacle.

Best kick we put up all night was from a hurried lee radford! Says it all......

Haha yeah possibly anyway don't start gettin clever we are picking on thorman ain't we!!!

I hope Thorman has played his last game for us, he is clearly incompetent and dis-interested.

I agree with the comments though that whether he was on the pitch or not we looked clueless with the ball. Do we even work with the ball in training as it doesnt look that way. Everything seemed to be unplanned and no one seemed to know what was going on at any point in time. Sack the coach and take Thorman with him for me!

i think berro would thrive at 7, and would be good there, with options coming off him!

He looked eagar when he went there in the second half, but you could tell the side were deflated after the try right on half time. You could tell he was thinking along the right lines when he tried to give the ball to raynor, alright it went behing him but he slipped when releasing it, but the close up of raynor saw him nod to berro for the idea, its that kind of creativity we want

That's the one thing I would possibly change in my side, Moa deserves a shot ahead of King.
