Message: [QUOTE="KnToad, post: 3126294, member: 8270"] I remember watching a very similar press conference last season with Panthers Coach Ivan Cleary. He didn't know what to say either and said as much. The press had a field day with it but Cleary knew nothing he said at a PC was going to count for a pinch of shit. The team just have to keep working and get better at handling the sometimes overwhelming flow of possession this new rule has injected into the game. They have always said "momentum" is a major factor in the game and the new rule makes that "momentum" almost insurmountable sometimes. The media is already noticing the blowouts scores and wondering out loud if this is really what we want our game to look like? yeh they all love it but the day of the close match is numbered while this rule is being applied like it is. Of course the team getting called for infringements in the ruck is going to struggle trying to stem the flow so they are going to infringe again as they get more desperate. It's a snowball and as long as your side is on the right side of the calls you will love watching your team tear apart the opposition but if you lose momentum you're in big trouble if you can't find a way to reign in the other team while they steamroll you down the field [/QUOTE]
