| I don't think he would have got over as the Cas defenders had him pretty well wrapped up and as I said, it was just unlucky that the offload didn't go to hand.
I've been a bit unfair to the guy so far and did actually say out loud during the game when he gave one of the penalties away that he should get on the first plane home, but having watched it back again I have to admit I was wrong and he did have a good game for us and hopefully will continue to get better.
For the others that have similarly criticised him on here, I would suggest you re-watch the game again and it might just change your opinion too ??

You'll be telling us that having pins stuck in our eyes isn't really that bad and we should give it a go.

| Quote Upanunder="Upanunder"We didn't get any of the 50/50's that actually mattered, but still the game was winnable right up to the last minute.
Its not been mentioned anywhere so mebbe I'm wrong but I though McMeekins try was forward from Roberts, I mean, that pass is a some you win some you lose job, so I make it a 50/50 that went against us.
On the next set from the kick off, Roberts did it again to webster but got pulled for it....course, it wasn't as important on their 40m line.
The England loose carry over the line I thought was a 50/50 too, but it was sent up as a no try on the back of what Child thought had happened, they couldn't disprove the knock on in the same way they wouldn't have been able to prove it had it gone up as a try.
=#FF0000Fifita's over the line ball steal, well it wasn't even a 50/50, it was a steal straight up but if you call it a 50/50, we didn't get it.
The off side penalty on our line near the end, wrong or not, I didn't think it had much bearing on the result.
Over all, we needed to produce more to overcome the conditions, the 50/50's and great defense from Cas managing their lead, it was there right to the end but we couldn't quite get the breaks.
Can't complain about anybody in the squad, they all did their bit in a mud bath, to single anyone out like Pauli or Miller is pretty harsh imo, they didn't look any worse than the rest of both teams splattering about in a muddy field.'"
Very similar occurrence in the Catalan V Shudds game. Mcallorum does exactly the same as Fifita and gets the penalty.

| Quote upthetrin92="upthetrin92"why milky?'"
I just remember in last years Super 8 game you were hanging on to our tails and whilst we were ahead we couldn't get a commanding lead. We then switched the attack to our right with Webster and Mcmeeken running over the top of Miller several times. Think Webster finished with 4 tries. I think it was Miller that Meeks went straight through for our try this time but it was just that once. I was surprised how well Pauli went considering the stick he's taken on here, certainly doesn't lack enthusiasm. Thought Wood was outstanding.

Wasn't it Finn who missed the tackle?

Haven't watched it back yet but seem to think it was Miller.

Just had a quick look and Mcmeeken goes almost between Miller and another player (could be Tupou) but commentator blames Miller. To be fair Miller had no chance of stopping him.

While your at it have another look at Roberts hands and the direction the ball leaves them.

| It was forward, its a 50/50 though, some you get some you don't.
McMeeken is a big lump, if Roberts pass is released a fraction earlier ie, not forward, he's still more likely to score than not I reckon.
Not really the point, I know.
Interesting that we have very few complaints about the ref for the loss at the codheads this week
