1) He has clear "walk-ins" on the back of work done by Willie Manu

2) He receives the ball when parallel with the opposition's defensive line i.e. inviting forward passes because he doesn't have the confidence in his own ability or intelligence to create and run attacking lines or angles.

It's these two reasons why Yeaman is the most overrated centre in the league and shouldn't be any where near the England squad (unless it's for cutting oranges at half-time).

ANyway, I thought Hall did really well in yardage and I hope to builds on this performance.

General Zod. wrote:You mean like his several tries against FC this season in which he received passes?

Yes, for cutting the oranges at half-time.

I agree Welham is suspect on his defence at times but when he does connect the player knows about it, when Hally does they seem to brush him off.
He did get better as the game went on but realistically if we want to push on he's not really good enough.

Ha ha, Mr backtrack is back again!

Another defeat or two and you will be gone for another few months.
