Round 25 V Newcastle

That's on the coaching staff to fix. It's the exact thing they're paid for.

The two things are at odds with each other. If he runs more from 7 it makes it harder for the outside backs to see the ball, no matter how good the game plan is.

Sure, they’re probably not going to move him to 5/8 anytime soon, but then we aren’t going to score a heap of points either.

(And we shouldn’t be reading much into today, this is a broken Newcastle team)

No they aren't. It's about balance. You use one as the deceit for the other. A passer has the same benefit but reversed. The coaching staff have to teach that balance is what I mean.

Yes this game isn't the best.

You still have the problem where we don’t have a natural passer at 7.

And we all know Ivan isn’t capable of some amazing gameplans, he’s a simple man with a simple plan.

Maybe under another coach it might work.

I agree. I assume that's why Barrett is being brought in.
