Message: [QUOTE="Number6, post: 2977540, member: 9008"] Great solution. Let’s only hire coaches that do everything Bennett wants... Broncs coaching staff need more yes men. You can’t just drop the shoulder these days, or lift or carry someone back 10 metres. No reward for chopping in half down low either. Half the ‘good’ tackles from Ryan’s era are illegal now and the other half aren’t ‘dominant’. It’s a different game and very different to rugby now. Agree wrestling isn’t all chicken wings and crushers. It’s the skill of putting players on their back, holding them on their feet so you can tie them up and turning them the wrong way around when they get up. For all the arguments of our defence without it in 15 that’s the exception besides with good wrestle we win that game. Just like Cows made the GF without Thurston but when at the end hard to win with an immortal and a million dollars on the bench. We give up that kind of advantage every week by choosing to not use proper modern tackling techniques like almost every other club. Besides all Bennett’s protestations are dismissed easily when we don’t do it well as it sounds like sour grapes. If the guy killing it says it shouldn’t be allowed then people might listen. Especially as someone said before, if Broncs benefit from wrestling it is likely the quickest way to get something banned (i.e Alf’s tackling style). [/QUOTE]
