Lynch and Elphick at the back, shouldn't really be too much of a problem, should it?

Lots of potential but no maturity against one of the top teams in the division...
... bugger!

Wasn't a problem at Elland Road or the City Ground?

Yes it is a bit of a problem not having Hawkins.
We didn't have Hawkins then.

Yes, but those two words don't go together.
And we can't rely on Kuipers to make brilliant saves to keep us in the game, or even get us the points.

But it's almost as if people think Elphick and Lynch have turned shit since Hawkins arrived.
People tend to forget they were both bloody good last season, suggesting we should have a decent backline with or without 'The Hawk'.
Anyway, it's Michel who's been keeping us in games more than the defence this season.

they ARE both good but play BETTER with an experienced player. For a mid table team they are great but we need the extra whenever possible...

Well given that Elphick is the source of most the hoofing we probably wont be far off.

I wouldn't have a clue - didn't go nor listen to the game.
Given that i've seen every other game this season though I would say that Elphick has more of a tendancy to hoof than Hawkins does.

No I don't think they're shit at all. They are good, but we've now been offered something better.
With regards to last season I personally thought it was Kuipers who should of got Player of the Season as he was the one who was 'bloody good'.

Should have gone to Forster IMO. Whilst Kuipers and Elphick were brilliant, Forster was the main reason we were so far up the league.

Yes he was, but if it wasn't for Kuipers we may not have been so far up, because whilst Forster was getting the goals at one end, Kuipers was stopping them at the other.

he will still hoof, but as i said, hopefully there will be less, because hawkins also hoofs it

Maybe I have selective memory, but I didn't think Hawkins was such a major culprit when it comes to launching it upfield.
