Message: [QUOTE="PNG Broncos fan88, post: 3175050, member: 9855"] Just look out how we fared against the all conquering Roosters, considering the stats don’t look that bad, the score line was 58-12 50-50 Possession 21-36 Missed tackles 13-11 Errors 80%-76% Set Completions Even last night, and losing 18-6 55-45 Possession 20-23 Missed tackles 11-13 Errors 79%-74% Set Completions Any other team with similar stats that we have compared to their rivals, would probably would have jagged a few wins already. Sure our lads can run, tackle, hold the ball and do the basics just as well as their respective opposition but when it comes to the crux of winning games, they flounder. They simply cannot execute effectively when comes down to points scoring situations. From the current 17, the only two consistent match winners who can make a break, run 50m and beat multiple defenders to the try line are Staggs and Fifita. Far cry from when we had Roberts, Nikorima, Hunt, Milford, (Oates ver 2015-16). Our young forwards are just bots out there too, running and making tackles just because they are 'forwards'. We lack smarts in the group, like we had in Blair, Thaiday, Parker. Making a quick hit up and PTB for the next play, running in tandem to create doubt in the opposition line, being aware of your supporting fullback for an offload. Pulling of decoys for set/trick plays. So this should probably be an indication of the talent we have. We have become a team of solid supporting players, just like Boyd Glenn and A.Mac were for all of their careers & don't have enough match winners like we used too. [/QUOTE]
