Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3479120, member: 9052"] This is true, but Haas and Carrigan are basically workhorse meter eating props... are we getting the best out of them if we start playing to backs on get out sets? Oates and Herbie basically take a hitup every set. With the fullback taking the kick return hitup that's 3 runs out of 5 taken up. Where this deviates is on our kick off sets... it'll be Haas/Jensen 1st, then we usually go Riki, then Patty, then Haas takes a second one... then we might usually look for a kick. Rorters will typically use Tupou on the 2nd carry after kick off... cant recall if the Panthers go outside backs on kick offs because I'm sure JFH and Leota take hitups there... and they'll usually do an early spread to the edge for Kikau (previously). So I think in all we do use our backs on yardage sets, but we also look to utilise our big middles, because they're just plain good at it. Patty will often generate a quick ptb... a lot of our good ball plays come off the back of a Patty run. Haas not so much but he does get big yards every tackle... I'd like us to not use him before a kick though... would prefer Reyno kicks after a Patty run to be on the front foot [/QUOTE]
