But that is the basics of the game. It's unfortunate
It is but that doesn't mean I have jump on the bandwagon. I want to see halves play well when forwards aren't making good metres. Then I'll credit them.

Good question. Rava was menacing. Poor Jack Bostock will have nightmares.

You got on the drink early today?
Isn't it Easter? Wine and chocolates?
Good point.
Show me the day and I'll show you a reason to celebrate.
Refresh my memory.
You on the other hand idolise Hunt. Add me to that list. Hunt lifted his game but JBD, Block, Suli were better and contributed more to the win as they were also strong in defense. 15 tackles for a half is chicken feed, one try assist, should be at least two per game. He continues to look an amateur with structure and how many hospital passes a game does he and his mate Bird throw.
He's a really good running halfback. Average when it comes to playmaking.
That and kicking is his forte. Still his taking on the line stats this season are moderate at best with 11 halves ahead of him. Cleary for instance has double the number of line engagements of Hunt from the same 4 games.
I know I keep rattling on about this but play making should have been the prime requisite when we were looking for a half in 2018. We did not then and now need an average play maker. One upside for Ben is his improvement in effective defense over past seasons. Fact is he is missing less tackles this season.
Mostly agree. Good playmaking 1/2 is better than a good running half but if the good running half has a good playmaking 5/8, shouldn't be a problem.
I think you have that spot on. A conspiracy between two bananalanders. imo Amone has the ability to be both a good running and play making 5/8 but over time when he matures. Yet can we afford to wait that long and keep losing games, confidence and the ability to attract top tier players. We need a good young organizer now. Other clubs are bringing thru their young play makers.
