The fact THAT our attack is structured is not the issue. Melbourne play structured. Rooster play structured. Bronco's play structured. It works. The issue is the WAY our attack is structure. Shitty angle, terrible timing, no decoy runners and worst of all, no ACTUAL options for our halves. When Benjo or Gareth get the ball, they really only have the option to run themselves or pass to a single realistic receiver, and it only ever works if the opposition misread the play. They both have the ability to assess a situation on the run and pick a good option, but the problem is that the option isnt there because those off-the-ball runners are all over the f**king place.
Roosters are probably the best example - on their regular attacking play, Maloney will get the ball 2 passes wide, he will have 2 front runners to choose from (usually a lock and second rower), a fullback sweeping around or the option for a long cut out to the centre, and usually the timing of all players are good enough that he just needs to pick the right one based on the defence. It's not always executed perfectly and he doesn't always choose the best option, but its a hell of a lot better than the crap we are dishing up!
