Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3134338, member: 1847"] The Roosters and Eels do. Look at the pics I posted earlier of their formation compared to ours. The way they play, it is easy for say Keary and Moses and Brown to create opportunities. Their shapes and structures: deep, wide, and moving as one give their playmakers space and time to create. Everyone knows their place, their job and that includes support, with Tedesco always sniffing around the plays to add the extra man. They form and reform like a machine into set patterns to initiate set moves, and they do it quickly behind quick play the balls. It's like the old saying - bodies in (perpetual) motion, relentlessly building momentum. We stand around in an aimless clump far too much, turning the ball inside time after time for forwards to run into brick walls. Our attack is so easy to defend, It is always in the middle. No wonder Milford has few chances to do anything. Exactly what is Milford (and Croft) supposed to do. Ask the ref to call time out while they organise the aimless clump of forwards standing flat footed waiting for the next forward to cart it up one out? Apart from which he is not a game a manger, never was and never will be. He is there to set up plays Everything Milford did in his heyday was precisely because he had a team playing as one, forwards laying the platform for him and Hunt say to wreak havoc which they did, with backs running in support as part of a coordinated attack. This team is so very far away from that it isn't funny as we well know. Sure Milford is down on energy and inspiration, but so is everyone. I am sure hoping that starts to turn around big time on Saturday. [/QUOTE]
