Samson had 5 hitouts cos he took a backseat to nank.Have said it before and I'll say it again, our over 30yo forward line of Cotch, Reiwoldt, Pickett, Dusty is way too slow, half the reason we're having to bomb it forward. Dusty is the only one earning his keep. Have to play Jack, we have nothing else.
A few are potting Nanks, I was surprised to see him play so soon, but imagine if it was a Samson/Miller ruck. Samson had just 5 hitouts, we would have been smashed tonight.
Might have dented his confidence, he might be cooked or he just couldn't get into the game.
But nank was woeful tonight.
I reckon the Samson/Miller combo would have beaten Draper tonight. And miller was stiff
to get dropped.
Both captains incredibly underwhelming. Been a theme this season
