Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2703941, member: 2221"] While we're not fluking our way to wins, and we've shown some mesmerising attacking footy this season, we definitely have very much done so on the back of limited attack and desperate defense, at least against the better teams. However, the Manly game in Brookvale was a perfect example of what can happen against a slick attacking team (even if all the stars were aligned for them, with incredibly flukey stuff, especially from Jamie Lyon), when you keep offering them field position. The tactic works pretty well against most teams in the comp, but I still have a lot of reservations whether we can consistently withstand constant pressure from teams like Storm, Roosters or Cowboys. An interesting stat this season is that on average, we only concede a try after 19 tackles in our 20, while we score after 7.5 tackles in the opposition 20. Like [MENTION=2065]lynx000[/MENTION] said, it's counter-intuitive, but it is working. Maybe Wayne's ahead of the rest of us, and preparing the team for a future with less interchanges... :noidea: [/QUOTE]
