Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 2606066, member: 1847"] I agree totally about the offloads. At the same time, that is no different, or applies equally to the other top teams who offload well, like Dogs and Manly, same for 2nd phase plays. Thing is with the Warriors is their speed around the rucks with Johnson etc that when they are on song, they execute their plays so quickly it breaks almost any line which is slow moving and broken, leaving gaps for Johnson etc to exploit. There are 2 answers to this, to beat the Warriors. One is both to lock up the ball carrier and put them quickly on their arse and have cover waiting for potential receivers of the offload/pass Second is, obviously, we have to outscore them, point for point, and that is where the Barba-Hoffman axis plays such an important role. We seriously need Barba to be at his best for this game, as well as our defensive line speed and no missed tackles or, as you correctly say, we are toast. [/QUOTE]
