I would have started Moa and rotated him with Thacks throughout the game. Other prop position i'd have given equal time to Dowes and Cusack as these two play way too much IMO

Wouldnt have had King or Maloney in as they needed to play reserves to get their boots dirty for a change. They will be getting their chance over busy easter period.

Possibly played Washy at 13 with Radders, Manu and Tickle rotating in second row.

Who I'd have doing tactical kicking in open play would be my major concern not fitness or interchanging. Our poor kicking game puts us under way too much pressure at end of our sets. For many years we've struggled in this department. Needs immediate attention IMO

Spot on. Our kicking game is garbage and is what is holding us back IMO. thorman was supposed to come in with a great kicking game and we've seen very little to suggest it's the case. We should be looking for a top class 7 with a world class kicking game for next season and get rid of thorman

Thormans never been famed for a long kicking game. His strength has always been attacking kicks near the opposition line.

And didn't we score from 2 on friday?

I thought Moa was a waste of a bench space, he isn't going to be in a position to do 20-30 minutes per game for quite a few weeks that's for sure and thinking that we can cope with a prop coming on for just 10 minutes is tactfully naive & puts massive pressure on the forwards. I thought Agar was supported by Sharp, are they both lacking in the tactical dept??
Moa did okay but considering he was only going to be spelled for 10 he should have been busting a gut in that time.

with regard to kicking gaining 10-15 metres from a penalty is pretty awful by any standards. yes Thorman is good with attacking kicks near the line but we have no-one who seems to be really capable of punting it 40-50 metres on a regular basis. What happened to spiral kicks to touch or for distance upfield. Do we need to look at employing a kicking coach from union?
