Lack of attack

Very concerned about manlys lack of attacking options. It's evident either tooves or parish is the mastermind of the right edge attack. It's getting vey boring and overused.all cherry is doing is feeding Glenn Stewart. Just a reminder cherry, you have a five eight on the left and you can shift or run the ball on the left aswel.. Not once in 6 weeks has cherry fed Liam or keiran a back line shot . The way it seems his game is suffering from where he was last year.Wow, we scored two late tries against a second string dragons team. We are averaging 16 points a game. Nowhere near enough to go back to back.

DCE plays on the right, of course he's going to be feeding those guys and not the guys on the left. Foran is the chief on the left, it's up to him and he's hindered at the moment missing both Matai and Williams, throw in the fact he is as rusty as an old gate, his timing was completely off on Friday.

We're only just halfway through the comp and haven't had a consistent backline/edge players week-to-week, the points will come if we can get the personnel on the field for a length of time.

Our attack is fine. Foran bring so much more to the team that I first thought.

That right side is lethal -- and we have been without Matai, Wolfman and TREX for quite a bit...

We will start clicking once Kfoz has some game time. Makes it hard that we have had such key players out for extended periods. Trex is missing from that left side aswell

I know Lussick its rumoured he's off elsewhere in '13, but I reckon he is capable of scoring more tries like he did against St.George.
I know his ball handling is not the best, but he could be used for more than the Battering Ram style of Rose & Galuvao, if he hit the ball out wider as he did in the 77th minute.

Yeah not really worried at the moment, maybe if Foran was a hundred percent and we had Matai and T-rex back and they were performing like that. The left hand side attack was all about speed and power last year, the right hand side guile.

Somewhat agree with OP, but there's still plenty of time to get it right.

Yeh definitely not panicking just yet. A half controls the game and he should float between both left and right feeding both edges attacking whichever side has less numbers. We are lethal on both sides so lets use foran 2 passes wide. Imagine how destructive he would be isolating a defender one on one.. Dce just seems to stay on the right which is leavn foran one pass off the ruck which means he is up against the forward fringe defenders before he could even pick up runners..plenty of time.
