Smith clearly thought he wasn't ready to enter the field at the time when we were getting back into the game. He usually puts him on around 60 mins in.

Because Currie and Hughes are that fu@king good why would you?

Fair point

I think our plans changed a fair bit with the sin binning, and the injury to Wheeler.

Good to have this depth over easter and April is a very testing month for us.

Was that the Press Syrah 2012 talking or you.

Currie did have a 10 min break I recall, whilst Hughes just tackled on and on. Perhaps TS didn't wan't to risk Jullien in what was a very tight game where one mistake could have ended our chances. Either way unless you have a direct line into the club, I suppose we will never know.
