Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2242155, member: 1764"] I like this reinvention of history that the Broncos' game plan always revolved around giving it to one player (presumably Lewis, then Langer, then Lockyer). Sure, those 3 were always the focal point of attack, but the Broncos always threw the ball around and made use of their backline up until about 1997 when there was also an introduction of a power game...but still plenty of ball movement. The ball movement died down after Alf's retirement in 1999 and we never really brought it back, except in certain individual games and streaks (run to 2006 premiership for example, and several games in the 2000 premiership). I actually think our ball movement in the last 2 seasons has been good and our reliance on the power game has subsided. Our weakness still seems to be to slip into one out rucks for 5 and then kick when we're struggling. I think that's the main area the Broncos need to work on. Rather than just go back to basics, which yes can stem the tide but won't get you out of a hole, come up with alternate plans and tactics. But to suggest the Broncos have used the same game plan for 20 years is utter nonsense. [/QUOTE]
