Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3172674, member: 1847"] Some more observations on our game plan from last night. No blame on individuals. Thoughts please ... [ATTACH type="full"]9833[/ATTACH] Here, early in the game, Oates gets the ball from a scrum. Takes it at pace making good metres. His eyes are however looking straight ahead to take a simple hit up. The defence is totally focused on him. But what's on his left? There's SOS and Herbie, both ready to run, and, look at the hole in the Panthers line. Wouldn't the better option be for Oates to draw the defenders in a bit more then pass to SOS with Herbie on his outside? Instead, Oates takes the hit, makes good post contact metres, but from the next PTB, we turn the ball inside to Fifita who is already marked by 3 players and gets smashed with no metres gained. Next, as Fifita plays the ball, Kennedy (good on him), to the left of Luke, has started to run a nice angle out wide, again towards SOS and Herbie, but Luke doesn't look, and simply turns the ball back inside to Dearden, who then turns the ball inside again into the middle, to Haas who has 3 defenders on him and gets dropped. The entire Penrith defensive line is focused on the middle. I really am tired of our obsession with the middle. So predictable, no ball movement. It's why we are so uncreative and ordinary.
