Definitely can run but we sure got beat on transition a lot. Definitely a work in progress but there is hope. MacIntosh looks very solid. Gilbert should fit in well on defense may become the leader there. Henry and Tao had good nights. Card did good too. They got to rest up quick because they got the champs, the Rock, tomorrow in Six Nations.
