Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3241781, member: 1847"] Just can't agree with this. It's not just about Staggs, it's about the spine, and how he fits into it. I keep saying that no individual player is going to make much difference to our spine until all the players mesh and play as a unit, rather than expecting individuals to suddenly and for mine, magically transform our team performances in isolation. For me it's all about combinations amongst the 1, 6, 7 and 9 which start with having some sort of shape where supports are pushing through and up around playmakers, which then has a flow on effect involving other support runners, say on the edges. Otherwise, you end up with, well, what we have now - playmakers stuck with the ball without supports, and expected to do something special on their own. In a game of rushing defence suffocating an attack, that's a recipe for a fail, exactly as we are failing. Until we have a team doing a stack of work off and on the ball, we aren't going anywhere, no matter who plays 1,6,7,or 9, let alone with yet another rookie. [/QUOTE]
