he went 2o minutes without touching the ball thanks to Maguire and Sinfield, he was the only reason we looked better in the second half

So it was 2 players fault that he didn't get the ball?????????

said all last season hes shi't

Maguire simply isn't international standard as today proved but i suppose you have to play the cards your dealt was impressed with Sinfield he finally shown us a glimpse of his club form

Mcguire was awful, one of the worst test match performances i have ever seen, i cheered when he went off he should have come off after half an hour we might have stood a chance, totally out of his deopth and can't see him playing again for his country time to blood the youngsters thought sinfield played very well tbh, and smith got it wrong putting JP in the 2nd row the same side as Inglis should have been `Ellis

while i agree with mcguire not being international class, who is in britain. he played behind a pack that got mashed in the first half, so no half back would of made any difference. mcguire is more a support player who offers nothing different, he doesnt run at the line, tomkins and eastmond do and burrow does. lockyear doesnt run like he used to but he trys to get his hands on the ball and get them round the field at every oppertunity. when we got a bit of go forward we got a bit of joy, even if it was the 5 drives and a kick sl rubbish. remember if the aussies are getting bashed up front they can go wide, we cant cause we have no backs. not a dm fan but the kids a tryer il give him that.

Then you were talking it

how the hell have we won the last three grand finals with such a set of players?



sinfield is rubbish

mcguire is rubbish

burrow is a one trick pony

diskin is,and has always been, a slow rubbish player

burgess is a poor imitation of his brother.

donald is rubbish.

senior is past it.

smith can't tackle.



one question cries out at me.

if we are so bad, how is everybody else. i suggest these myopic fans stick to there own boards instead of making idiots of themselves on here

Burgess dropped 2 good balls from McGuire ???? you have to be joking good balls ! He was terrible today

I think you'll find only McGuire coming in for any stick.



I thought Sinfield did a good job and once Smith was on the wing, he was fine too (a defensive disaster in the first half though).

Sinfield was far better when he went into the dummy half (hooker) role.



Roby was very poor in that position.

thats because he is a full back/winger. he made a good job of centre in SL,as did lee gilmour.



however the aussies had dummy runners all over the place and the fringes were dragged all over the pitch leaving the outside backs isolated.

the fact is senior apart we don't have a good centre.

also a better coach would have the team far better organised
