Message: [QUOTE="bazza, post: 2639350, member: 8440"] Agree! That can only be a good thing. We need more ball movement and second phase play. In recent seasons our lack of ball movement has made it incredibly simple to shut down our attack. The only type of ball movement happened to be just side to side stuff without actually laying any sort of platform, which teams can easily slide and defend as the opposition's defensive line remains set. When we can drag three or four players and pop an offload, it creates the space around the ruck which Milford, Hunt and Boyd can exploit. In the four nations, the Kangaroos looked troubled by England and NZ. Both teams, more-so England, played fast, up tempo styles of football with quick, clean ball movement and plenty of second phase play. It shortened the defensive line and created attacking opportunities which the Kangaroos struggled to defend. Parker, Gillett, Hodges, Blair, Garbutt and even McGuire can all offload. Hopefully there'll be plenty of opportunities for Milford and the quicker players. [/QUOTE]
