Seems be the problem with the whole team. They just want to score points off every set rather than building a game plan. Even Reynolds is probably feeling the pressure. As much as I hate one out hit ups, would love to just see this team have a high completion rate and tight defence. Good kick chase and grind out games.
Yep, and Staggs has never really done that, he’s not that kind of centre. Now he’s on big bucks it’s an easy thing for commentators to say, but we didn’t re-sign him to do things he’s never done, we presumably re-signed him to do what he’s always done.
The best we played yesterday was the 5mins straight after halftime when we straightened up and just had one out hit ups off the ruck. So Kevvie at least identified it. Our forwards are our strength, that’s where we need to be playing, but we need a decent 9 to steer them and stop guys like Carrigan crabbing across field throwing stupid offloads.
Mmm, yes and no ! We do need a certain amount of that it's true but last week we did that, bashed it up the middle instead of getting it a bit wider. It might have been better if we'd stayed out of the centre 20 metres a bit more and run Haas and co at the centres and halves a bit more often. As WB said, it's not a complicated game.
Need to learn how to walk before we run, particularly with Reynolds new to the team.
Agree, but how would keeping them in a comp that is way better than they think they are do their confidence, it will destroy them.
can someone tell Kevvie this pls
