[QUOTE="Allo, post: 3054305, member: 8190"] We had three games of no McCullough (five if you count last season) and 3 (5) wins. McCullough comes back and we lose three straight and look as lethargic and dogshit as we previously did. Other factors like Dearden aside, it's obvious to everyone, even every other clubs' fans, that we look better without him. The points we scored were enough to win those games, and at this stage that's all that really matters. Turpin and/or Segeyaro are the best options we have currently, so we should use them properly and give them a legitimate shot of cementing their spot/s. I'm not suggesting throwing 3-5 year contracts at them and saying that's job done looking for a hooker after 5 or 6 games, but let them prove they deserve to be the immediate future. Don't forget how raw Turps still is. His 'regulatory brain explosion' as you put it is typical of someone of his experience. And if anything it comes from over-enthusiasm, which I'm happy to take every day of the week over incompetence. He makes things happen, and really outside of a couple of bad decisions here and there and the 'mare he had v Parra (and what player hasn't had a bad game), he's had a hugely positive impact on the team and how we play and I 100% believe we don't win the games we did if it was only McCullough playing. Turpin had 29 minutes vs the Knights and we were already down 18-6. Turpin in the halves vs the Sharks, Segeyaro the second half, we get outscored 14-12. With 3 hookers playing, you cannot hold that against them (including McCullough in this case). And we outscored the Warriors during the time Segeyaro was playing, granted not enough to win, but we still played better in that time and we get a point. [B]Out of these games we have one half of football with a legitimate half and we outscore 12-8. [/B]Along with Milford doing 90% of the kicking from fullback. So points scored cannot be fairly judged with other games from the first half of the season It may seem like the pro-Turpin crowd go overboard, but the at-least half-decade of staleness has caused any positive change to be met with overwhelming support. Honestly I hate this type of bet-hedging post that parades as critical analysis. [/QUOTE]
