Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3432309, member: 9052"] In regards to the weather we aren't really a grind it out side and we like to be expansive early and inside our own half... it's a trait we used to have with Lockyer and Khunt in the spine and I think it's something Kevvie wants us to have in our game to get it out to Staggs on the back of a 40m backline movement. We also like to be mobile and interchange passing with our forwards. Those kinds of moves slow down in the wet and especially when you can't get any momentum through the ruck to play off the back of. I feel like we've been better this year in damp conditions with our ball movement, but it's our footing and constant slipping over that is most apparent to me. For whatever reason the entire team look like they're disney on ice at the slightest bit of dew or rain. I think that can lead to trepidation in your runs, because if you're unsure of your footing then your lateral movements are going to be impacted. We lost the middle by fucking miles last night though and no one except Flegler stood up to try and change that. It's one of the most disappointing things about Haas' play... if we're getting monstered in the middle then we need big bustling runs from him and I thought last night he was pretty well contained. He is also extremely passive in defence... Flegler and Turps were the only ones I can recall putting on any sort of line speed... I think Billy was looking to put on some linespeed when he came on as well, but game was gone by then. [/QUOTE]
