Alfie was proving ineffective for a long time before he got injured, he was regularly double teamed and knocked backwards.
We then needed someone to stand up and say to him to try a few balls out the back or use him as a decoy because when Tom was given the lead with carrying we saw the difference, this then opened up space for Nemo etc.
I would wish an injury on Alfie and hope it’s not a similar hamstring issue again for him, but for the time being I think we will be a better team with him not in it.
Nemo and Jack on the flanks whilst Brad is out with Morris/Curran deputising and we look far more balanced.
