I think Parra can play to a game plan with the players that they have; every team can! The trick is to identify and implement a game plan that suits the players that the team currently has. This is where the coach earns his money! At present, it just looks like your players aren't capable of playing to a game plan because there isn't one; its just a mish-mash of various strategies and styles that has caused everyone in the team to become confused and unsure of what their role is and subsequently, look ordinary.
I selected the Bulldogs template because its such a simple, yet effective game plan to implement and doesn't require the players in it to be overly skillful. In actual fact, I think the majority of players in Parramatta's squad are far more naturally gifted than Canterbury's. I'd be willing to bet you, that if you offered Manu Ma'u to Des Hasler he would give you any one of his forwards in return! Like I said, your forward pack is the most improved in the competition and is more than capable of pushing up quickly to maintain pressure on the opposition when they are working the ball of their own goal line - you guys did it against Souths!
Corey Norman and Chris Sandow are at least the equals of Reynolds and Hodkinson, maybe a bit more inconsistent but nevertheless, far more capable of winning a game than the Canterbury halves. In terms of whats required of them - playing the Canterbury way would simplify and and clarify their roles far more than what they are doing now. Kicking the ball low and to the corners, throwing minimal risk passes and looking to put forwards into a hole from first or second receiver is not exactly the most difficult of things to execute. Add to that a hooker who has the ability to select the right play at the right time and has organisation attributes and you'll be more than a handful.
