[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 952000, member: 43875"] Sorry but Read had his best game in a long time and I think many sources and stats agree, he was everywhere. carried and defended well. Created a try from a restart. Smith was fine but he didn't do anything really and I beg you to watch him. he never just passes the ball he always picks it up and takes a step or two then winds up and throws a pass. Now go watch Brad Weber in the last few minutes against Argentina. He dived into every ruck and passed straight off the ground. Its 3-6 seconds on every play. That is the key to beating rush defenses, having the ball in the first receivers hands when the defense is still on their heals. Plus smith isn't really providing any threat with the ball in hand other than backing up the ball carrier. We need faster ball and smith isn't providing it. Look at the influence Nick white had on the game, completely outplayed Smith. [/QUOTE]
