These are what I'd do as an opposition coach to nullify the brisbane force in 2015.
Bomb at Oates. He's shakey under the high ball. I'd work my sets to put it up and trap him two or three in from the sideline somehow. Don't want him running at players 1 on 1.
If that's too risky and you'd rather take his ball returns or of it completely, bomb it to boyd. He's only a safe as houses fullback who never tries to gain the extra metres and he's just happy to run it up and submit.
Draw boyd into the 4th and or 5th tackle as a front line defender. Manly did this. Put the ball through as a grubber cause boyd is too far out of position. I'd do this on the left side of the field. . That way you can
Grubber to kahu. He's fumbled a few in recent times and could be afraid of it. Roosters cashed in on this on recently.
Make blaire angry. Force him to overplay his mongrel and draw a penalty. Allow the Broncos easy metres up the middle same way we do and force Hunt into attacking kicks. Get him off his rythem of bombing from the 50.
Ask questions of the Broncos chasers. Turn them around. That's our only way of making metres back after submitting back and allowing teams to run the 10. They conserve line speed to have extra whack in defence and extra energy to chase kicks.
When kodi comes on, make sure you've saved a fresh interchange to go out there and whack him hard. Late if you have to. He's small. He'll get you if you're not ready. Attack him.
Run directly at and go through reed. Run your back rowers at him. Run them at Milford too. Early in the game. Don't let him get you later on in the game. Reed likes to tackle from the side or behind, don't let him. Run through him (find a way to isolate glenn further in field) get him to commit to the tackle then you have both reed and Milford to go for with two bigger dudes.
Give Hunt all the options to kick and no options to run the ball. Eventually he'll pick the wrong kick and over play his hand (kicking it dead or straight to a man)
Waste the dodds interchange by attacking down the edges while he's on. He isn't an attacking player so don't give him his moments to put on big hits. Run at him then pass at the line. Move the ball.
Anyone else think they have ideas on where we could be exploited?
