Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 3242421, member: 1992"] Oh absolutely. I was thinking out loud, yes and in practice we would certainly not be employing such a tactic from 25 metres out from the try line. It's very definitely a tactic for deep in our half onwards. I'd adopt a team call [ AND WE'RE WALKING, WALKING ] or similar. It would be something to consider after we've been scored on however if we are 'in the match' or heavens above, leading you wouldn't thinkabout such a tactic. If we think back to our games and considering the other blowout scores in other matches we see a rush of points. We need to be able to arrest that and currently, no tactic has worked. What tends to happen is the opposition scores, gets the ball back yet again and attacks hard. We try to stop them and usually fail. Why? Mainly because we are shagged and the onslaught is relentless. When we finally get the ball what do we do, time and again? That's right, we force shagged players to suddenly put on plays AND WE RUSH LIKE MADMEN to give the ball straight back!!!! That's fucking insane. What we should be doing is having a breather, taking our own sweet time because WE DECIDE HOW FAST PLAY IS. It's our turn to dictate the pace of the game. I've watched closely and I'm always apprehensive when the opposition has the ball especially after just scoring. We shouldn't hurry through our set just to give the ball back to our tormentors. Usually we hand it straight back after 4 or 5 very weak and quick tackles/hit ups. That's madness. We have the ball, we should dictate terms. [/QUOTE]
