Message: [QUOTE="LittleDavey, post: 2565498, member: 8255"] I think we forgot it was a 13-man game and only played 9; right? How else can there be gaps in the centre of the park, with 2-man overlaps on the wing/s? Same problems as last year. No wrapping up of the ball, they were offloading at will. Not coming forward in defence. No wrestle, so no time for the line to reset, so we were always on the back foot. No clue in attack, none whatsoever. No fast players, speed is power and a headfuck for the opposition, and we just don't have it. There seemed to be a lack of trust - there was at least 2 tries IIRC where there was a lack of faith in the inside man to make his tackle, so the outer defender stayed in - and was promptly caught too far inside. Positives: Thaiday ran strongly, I thought he was pretty good. Thought Copley was solid. Weren't stuffed after 5 minutes, so the conditioning is definitely improved. Think that's about it. I'm reserving my judgement til the season proper, but at this point I feel that it's gonna be a fucking long season with not a great deal to look forward to, and that makes me very sad. I'll ask the same thing as I did last year: WTF are they doing at training? Attack is woeful so it can't be that. Defence is just as bad, so it's not defence. So......what ARE they doing? Laps? Pushups? FMD we expect so much better than that rabble. Very disappointing. [/QUOTE]
