The Colonel said:Kick chase is only as good as the kick. If they are playing the ball on the first tackle past the 30 metre line the opposition can be attacking in our forty in two or three plays. That is metres we shouldn't be giving away. We were lucky to get away with the Warriors game for that very reason and again on the weekend when we were camped inside our own twenty for most of the first half. While it was a very good try if it hadn't have been for two intercepts on our own goal line it could have been a very different game.
I was more comfortable when PJ and John were playing the halves role and Jeremy was two passes off the ruck.
Good point, but even Morris couldnt find open space with many of his kicks. We made our own luck with good forward roll on and some smart 5th tackle options out wide. I would have J.Smith there as much as possible tbh. He and Morris swapping is throughout the game is a good combination imo.
