You can not scapegoat one player from last night, King did no more wrong than anyone else.
The whole team are showing no DESIRE to win a game..
Watch the game back, Jimmy told yo utoo, we weren't out enthused, no way.
On the King point, he wasn't bad last night. Didn't do anything, so did nothing wrong. I've said this for ages, he's the slowest bloke in the world, when he chases a kick, it's like slow motion. We're hiding him out the way there, which is fine, taking him out of the firing line etc, but in theory your two wingers are your strike weapons, and we're only carrying one missile at the minute.
You'd think it's a perfect time for Penny right now, if he can't defend, well fair enough, but not many in the team can, so he can't be on his own. Rather than hiding him away, we should be wheeling him out, and looking to counter what people have. I think we are in danger of not playing too our strengths as we're too busy worrying about other peoples, we seem to have lost faith in Penny yet he's probably the one back we have that would give people like Kear food for thought when preparing for the game, simply because if used effectively, he could do damage.
