That about sums it up, imo the team of the last couple of weeks would if had an easier time yesterday. They seemed to play better

Lockers best bits for me was a tackle that knocked a Wire onto his backside and a couple of strong drives. IIRC, he also put a nice link in what might have led to a try of break. He certainly had a steadying influence.

He could not have played 80 IMO and his selection whilst risky (particularly as Flower had not playd for 2 matches) it was successful and in the end worth it.

Opinion based before a player even played the game I have an issue with. Regardless of how well he played you would not have changed your opinion of him.

You have hammered on about Flower for a few weeks so that hardly makes your thought on him impartial.

CP think it was Chris Hill he dumped on his back. Heck of a tackle if it was.

Gimble I've never claimed for my view on Flower to be impartial, I don't like him and can't wait for the day he leaves. A couple of weeks you say, try since the moment of that second punch, just though he wasn't any good before that and a sh**house after.

So if I've give the wrong impression I apologise, all comments come from me not a happy clapper

Any reason JF. Personally other than two brain farts I see a lot to like.

Most people on here do that's why I never try and argue the point, even if the Grand Final 2014 never happened i'd of still of wanted him gone.
I just don't like small props who are easily bullied, Dudson made errors but when it came to battling against other props he held his own. Just my opinion tbh

I like a balance; an enforcer and an all rounder. Platty wasn't huge when he started at prop. Not a size thing but I like Hill (Wire). Not keen on props being too big that they become a weakness such as Feka.
