Team vs Manly

[spiderdan]

It's not the personal but what they are doing. They have the ability but they don't seem to have a decent gameplan or anything in attack. One dimensional is one way to put it but I would go with negative boring footy.

Get the forwards hitting the ball up with support, pass before the line, offload and have dummy runners and angled runners. Against Manly you must look to go wide and stretch them but have options to turn the ball back inside.

it's what hagan wants. in an interview he claimed it leads to higher completion rates and wins. makes me laugh that anytime we've looked good this year we have been throwing the ball around and playing off offloads.

f**k this support for Grothe makes me laugh.

I am not disagreeing, but seriously a month ago everyone was ready to lynch him. Maybe he is not that bad after all !

Funny how many people want Finch to be dropped...... What a waste of money!!

Come back Tim.

yeah..because it's his fault isn't it??..he's been as consistantly sh*t as anyone else but is atleast more passionate than the golden children who earning twice as much as him..

I notice he blew up at a team-mate this week again.

After allowing a defender to stroll past him the tackle before then score in the gaping channel outside him on the next, he blew up at the players around him as if they were to blame.

His passion isn't woth a pinch of %$&^ in my book.

He doesn't offer anything to the team but a defensive liability and complete lack of attack.

Cordoba made just 49 metres? For a starting prop thats abysmal. looks like the backs made more metres that the forwards did.

Been the same way for about four or five years......

True there, I cant even recall many of our forwards actually in open space, Fui is about the only one that springs to mind.

 

[forward pass]

fmd - where are our offloads?? I am sick our forwards 'just hit it up' mentality. They aren't even looking for the offload. No wonder we are so predictable.

I was actually shocked at the Inu break that led to the Hayne try.
Hindy ran up the blind and actually looked for the off-load, which wasn't great but Inu picked it up.
Over the past few weeks, Hindy has had a dozen chances to off-load, but hasn't.
I wonder why he was so desperate to do it this time?
Normally, he would have just gone to ground.
