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

Exactly. All year naths kicking has for the most part been nowhere near his best.

The mid field bomb tactic has to stop. Its rubbish.

Sos may have had a few errors here and there in his game, but given he was on basically 1/10th of naths salary i thought he was really good.

Hes kicks for a nsw cup 7 were great and hes game management for a bloke at his levek i thought was top notch. His execution was lacking at times but he appeared to have a better grasp on game management than nath has had this year.

Just want to see nath kick early and long when we are under pressure.

And if he is going to mid field bomb,land them 5m out not 20m out for crying out loud.

Nath needs to bring his A game. So many on here defend him like crazy but hes our highest paid player. He needs to deliver.

A few big games this year his kicking game has been the main reason for losing. Origin dce and hunt gave him a masterclass in game management.

Just want to see Nath mix up his kicks and execute them. A mid fiekd bomb that they catch on the 20m and bring out to the 30m line for tackle 1 is not a good kick and terrible execution.

It appeared nath thought it was a good tactic because we had been so successful. But in reality in the big games that just doesnt work.

Need to mix it up and execute. Just hope he steps up

I've done that before but solo. I had like 10 tabs open on Chrome but that's a rookie error. You need to use different computers or phones.

Sos does plenty of mid field bombs that land on the 20 have you been watching him at all? Nathan actually gets his deeper usually on the 10m line which work out better for us. And what big games did his kicking lose for us? It could only be the two Parra games and his kicking really wasnt the reason we lost those games.

Sos kicking game for a nsw cup 7 who is on a tenth of what nathan is was very very good this year.

He has a good understanding of when what style of kick is needed. He doesnt have the length of nath or the execution but he does seem to know what kick is needed most of the time.

Rubbish re naths kicks landing on the 10m line. Deadset rubbish. So many of his mid field bombs land on the 20.

Did you read my post? As i was making the point naths avg mid field bombs havent been an issue cause we basically have won all year. But its in the tough games where it has been shown up.

Origin was just a classic example.. he really did get owned in the kicking department by hunt and dce.

Thats not to say i think they are better kickers than him. I think hes one of the best kickers in the cop. But this mid field bomb strategy needs to go or at least get it right and actually land them 5m out and kick with a bit of variety.

Its not a tactic hes done the previous 2 years.. no idea why they have started doing it this year.. coming out of our end kicking sos hasnt done it at all..hes just kicked to try find the grass.. we havent missed the mid field bombs in his naths absence.

The attitude that is hasnt lost us any games is ridiculous. Should always always be aiming to be better and hes kicking game this year is seriously nowhere near the past few years.
