Awesome game. Im about as happy as a fan could be with a loss. Still gutted but proud of the boys solid gutsy effort. Great that went toe to toe with the competition leaders.
Sadly theres an elephant in the room and thats Cappys strange decision to bench Tuimoala Lolohea with Jonathan Wright. Im absolutely incredulous at this selection. Baffles me as to what his motives were. Defence? Id argue that the Tui/Ayshford combo would have performed just as well but with the added advantage of being able to finish of tries and half chances. Wright bumbling that sitter try then fumbling the loose ball had us going to the sheds at the wrong end of the ledger when we should have had a healthy lead.
Wont go on. Makes me upset to think about it and Id like to remember this game for the positives.
David Fusitua MUST continue as our fill in fullback. He does well under the high ball, chimes into the line well and has a solid kick return but most importantly his defence is stoic. Light years ahead of both Tui and RTS in that regard.
After such a tough battle I wont be surprised if we lose to the Titans but Im expecting a great encounter and hopefully the boys can get the result at home before having a well deserved bye.
LETS GONE WARRIORS!!!
