Hope ivans rewatched the 2nd 40 against parra from the last time we played them this year.
Thats how to beat them.
Not trying to out beat them physically with the forwards.
Have to get api directing edwards, too, critta, tago, may back through the ruck behind the markers every single run.. at speed. Parras big boys cant handle that kinda ruck speed.
Issue is ivan normally tries to get us just to get in an arm wrestle and win it that way. But parras the one team in the comp who has a forward pack that can out muscle ours. Just the sheer amount of offloads they get away makes them so hard to stop.
For me, the game plan has to be for the back 5 to attack with everything they have back through the ruck area. Big blokes like rcg and paulo will be stuffed after 10mins.
Also good i hope naths been watching Sos kick. No shit mid field bombs. Kick early and find the grass if we are under pressure. Turn their big boppers around
