I’ve had this playing on my mind over the last few weeks. Our team reminds me of a schizophrenic Brian Smith team - they look like they’ve had all ‘eyes up’ footy completely coached out of them. But unlike Brian Smith teams, who were scared to death of doing anything ‘off script’ for fear of dropping, there’s actually no consequence anyway if they did try something.

No, this is a group of players that don't care because they know there are no consequences for their play.
The only way to get out of the 17 is to be injured or suspended. Once you're in, you're in. Players below can't earn their way into the team.

Yeah I agree, Katoas brain fart is a perfect example of this - which is why I called them schizophrenic, there is no fear of consequence, yet they still seem afraid to take the game on, to play what they see, to do anything ‘different’ - the fear is all in their heads.

I don't see them as afraid to take the game on. There is no motivation to push themselves, so why would they?

They're playing in a comfort zone.

That was the biggest crock of shit sin bin I've ever seen

Normal tackle 2 guys around top one around legs struggle to get attacker to ground , miracle tackle wave arm in front of leg attacker comes crashing to the ground.

Dumb yeah, dive yeah, sin bin no.
