Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3241747, member: 1847"] And the question is why, and why for 3-4 years now, why hasn't it changed? The game may well be simple but executing simplicity efficiently and creatively for a bunch of leaderless rookies is rather complicated it seems. There's, coping with accelerated ruck speed, the ball being kept in play a lot longer with faster ball movement and precise execution, the crucial importance of support play, tight marker defence, pushing up and through to give your playmakers options, fast consistent line speed for the full 80, disciplined, organised and coordinated defence on the goal line, proper defensive positioning on the edges, executing simple set plays well, eyes up ... all the things we don't do consistently, if at all. And there's a lot of them. Maybe then, because for leaderless rookies it's rather complicated to play this simple game under massive pressure, and coaching this player group is a lot harder than anyone thinks, especially for a rookie coach, who also seems to be feeling the pinch, coaching this simple game. But then, I suppose it could be Milford's fault. He ought to be able to fix all of that. After all, for a million bucks, you should be getting at least a few decent miracles. Maybe next week. Just pass it to [S]Dave[/S] Milf, stand back, watch and be amazed. Milford by 30 [/QUOTE]
