Message: [QUOTE="Wolfie, post: 2976293, member: 8770"] You are twisting things. I never said they didnt know how to tackle. I said they tackled poorly, which is poor execution. I'd agree we make poor reads, but again, thats not down to a lack of effort, its a poor decision making. These blokes just dont go out to intentionally play poorly, they dont all have bad attitudes and they certainly care, but if you are playing badly, sometimes there is nothing you can do about it, players lose form. And as i said before, you have guys like Blair, Parker, Gillett and Hodges leading the way in that 2015 side. We just havent had that kind of top level, battle hardened experience in the side this year. Compare that side to the one thats played the majority of this year. At fullback, Boyd in 2015 was miles better than Boyd in 2018. Hodges and Reed were a better center pairing than any of the pairings we have used this year. Our wingers this year i'd say were better than 2015. Our halves much better in 2015 than in 2018. Our forward pack was better in 2015 than it has been in 2018. Overall, we were just a better team in 2015. That side had a lot of players at the top of their game, our current side is still learning. Thats the big difference. Young players have lapses in their game, and thats why we have been so inconsistent. [/QUOTE]
