Subject: Team tonight Author: CHRIS [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:15:16 04/30/02 Tue Author Host/IP: inktomi1-gui.server.ntl.com/62.252.0.4 I've just seen the team announced in the Argus tonight. Looks good. One problem. Why oh why do they play slug. I am sorry, Chris Thomas won every lineout against Bedwas. When slug came on we only won two out of 10. Come on. My argument is that he has had enough chances. We will struggle with a poor lineout display tonight!!! I can't believe this decision.

Slug was chosen to play tonight for his power in the scrums. We scored 28 points first half, playing against the wind, in the driving rain and uphill, not a bad night for Slug was it. Its about time that you got off his back. He is picked to play agianst all the teams with a good pack of forwards (Blackwood ect) for his superior strength. Ok maybe Chris has a better lineout throw but it is not all about throwing. Its about getting around the field and having your presence felt. If the crowd supported Slug more whilst on the pitch then maybe he would have a bit more confidence and start playing better.

Chris however is much better at throwing in to the line. This is a key, and i mean key job for the hooker. How good around the field was bobby Windsor? Only in tight forward play most of the time. But the question I want to ask is why cant his father teach him to throw in better? Wasnt he a hooker too?
