Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 3251695, member: 2290"] Yeah I can somewhat forgive the attack. Round 1 Milf was playing on both sides and linking with his co-half. Some good shapes but I think Kev has purposefully simplified things to the absolute basic level and guys still aren’t able to follow it. This may be why our attack is so one dimensional - because the players are struggling to execute even our current overly simplified strategies. For me the jury is still out on this. A concern is definitely the defence. Yea, he is working with gumbies but the right side has been swapped so much and not shown any improvement. The right side has looked like: several combinations of the following: 4th in defender: Riki, TPJ 3rd in: Milf, Croft 2nd in: Niu, Kennar, Mead, Farnworth Wing: Coates, (Farnworth half a game) The only constant has been Coates on wing and Isaako at fullback. So who is to blame for the horrendous right side defence? Is it structural? Are all the players just terrible? Is Coates the issue? Is Isaako not communicating the numbers? I think it’s obviously all of the above to some extent. Though Boyd was back there and things were no better with the “games best defensive communicator”. It’s obviously just speculation but I’d find it hard to believe that this teams’ defence would be this bad under Bennett. I’m not sure what the answer is. [/QUOTE]
