Maybe im not looking far enough into this but are those short side plays necessary.

Every time we go the shortside the commentators are quick to suck on Sheens knob, 'thats typical of a Tim Sheens coached side' 'no other team dares goes down there' bla bla.

We made some OK metres running there, no doubt. Fox Sports had a stat that at one stage we had played approx 55% of our attack down the left side of the field. From memory we ran there for approx 3-4 sets in a row, our forwards possibly had 1-2 hitups, max.

Im not sure how we can come up against the strongest forward pack going around and afford them the luxury of 3-4 sets without having to make a tackle. Surely we should be running them in circles, something we are usually pretty good at.
