Going forward, I will be very unhappy with Horne getting game time ahead of the likes of Cator, Lawler and Milton. Like Frankie, I personally blame Horne for a lack of defensive effort and poor concentration that led to our capitulation at the end of the MPG and subsequent relegation. Yesterday that same player and those same failings were on show.

Salter hero to zero in 1 week.

Deja vu.

How the hell have Shaw and Salter been given a 7 rating in the HDM, both players were atrocious, defensively inept and didn't work hard enough going forward. The pairing of Dave and Oakes on the other flank worked, Oakes worked tirelessly on out sets (Harder than any other outside back) and several quick POB's off him put us in good stead for breakaway plays, Dave still has a touch of class and helped Oakes out in his first outing this season, I would like to see the ball go out to Oakes a bit more to see how potent he can be in open play. Abdull killed a few good moves by 'going it alone' which is not necessary, give the ball some air instead of gunning for personal glory!!! ZDC looks like he will be class and a real good signing great around the ruck and his distribution is quick and decisive. Milton looks a useful lad and needs more game time (why is he not playing instead of Salter???). If Moss & Heff are fit for Friday then i'd bring them back and drop Salter and Shaw who at best offer little, Keep Oakes in and if Minns is fit put Dave on the bench (bit old for 2 games in 5 days). Horne.... Why???? keep him out of the team and Cator or Clavering in it.

got to agree with you on all you have said Salter and shaw for me are rubbish
