Lia's start to that game was about as crap as anyone else. The lack of a decent pre season was totally evident as everyone struggled to get into the torrid pace of the first half hour. Surprised me that everyone lifted to the extent they did, including Lia. After what he's been through at the Phoenix, he deserves a break from us. I wasn't expecting that sort of second half team performance until about December. At least we have a coach now that will drop anyone who doesn't perform, because we have depth now, and Ernie won't be afraid to play any kids who show they've got it, headed by Rufer when he's back.
