Here's the thing I can't shake, and I'm sure you all can explain it.
Why are we so proud of having our most dynamic forwards on the bench, yet still bemoan our slow starts?
I understand that our current bench really packs a punch when they come on. That's terrific. I genuinely love seeing Talakai and Hunt beast-mode tiring opposition. But they're not superheroes who can overcome the several try starts we're giving up against decent teams.
Are the likes of Hunt and Talakai only good when used that way? From what I've seen they could offer a lot of the same if they started. And our starters aren't offering anything they couldn't right now.
Considering our crud starts, wouldn't it be better to get the most dynamic punch in the first 20-30 minutes to try and stop the bleeding, keeping us in the game or at least close? Then let our backs do the job when the defence is tired?
Give me your knowledge oh wise forum posters!
