How sad is it that we’re looking at the Tigera makeshift halves with envy.
What the Tigers halves do, that our don’t, is present as a ball running threat first and foremost. Both are robust, strong runners, their first few steps are nearly always forward at the defensive line, and that means defenders have to prepare to tackle them - that’s what then creates space both inside and outside.
He's way better than either of our halves. The tigers were great to watch yesterday. That halfback is electric and smashes merkins when he hits them.
He certainly does appear to have a fair bit of umph in his defence.
Ultimatley, our 2 halfbacks need to toughen up - they need to run the ball, and run it hard. They’ve got to become a threat ball in hand, and then play once the defenders are expecting them to run.
