Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 2359165, member: 1847"] I reckon focusing on individuals is really a waste of time when the team has little if any structure or direction. Headless chooks in attack. Seems not much has changed over the years. Like, our 1, 6, 7 and 9 did nothing except mostly run laterally looking for non-existent runners. No depth or width. Hoffman was brilliant at what he did, but I don't recall too many attempts to come up into the line. He should learn from Bowen's attacking game. Gillett is a runner. He really didn't do much 'cos he wasn't allowed to. Same with T'eo. Thaiday is not a prop. Parker is, dare I say it, not a lock. He should be in the back row and told to run and defend straight and hard and that's it. Put a player at lock and it gives them a mind set they can run sideways, and try lots of fancy things. Parker is not that kind of player. Gillett is. He should be lock. I don't buy the drivel that lock is not a specialist position. It is an opportunity to give a running ball player (like Gillett) a chance to ... run and ball play. If McCullough throws another dummy, he should be put in nappies. The Cows didn't win. Thurston did, 'cos we let him. I am so looking forward to see how the new coach gives our great side the structure and direction we need to get our stars to shine. [/QUOTE]
