"Sanders defence in the halves is actually better than Hands. NSW Cup stats would back this statement up as well. Hands is actually a poor defender in the halves. He is barely cup quality in cup. Hands is an out and out hooker in my opnion."
"I see hands on the bench as coverage for sanders in case his defence doesn't hold up rather than just to relieve lussick."

It should be like that every time we're attacking inside the red zone. If we don't have everyone on their toes running in numbers, we'll just be easy meat for the defenders. Running in numbers AT SPEED puts the defenders in 2 minds about who they're going to commit themselves to in order to try & break down our attacking raid.
We've gotta make their defenders clueless and basically have to take a guess as to wether player X is gonna try to bust through the line himself to score or wether this & that player are only decoy runners, and also have to worry about a grubber into the in-goal for a try/repeat set, or even a cutout pass to the winger.
This can only be achieved by having multiple players running at speed and in perfect formation. I just hope that what we saw the other night wasn't the limit to what our attack can produce and that it was just the beginning of even better attacking plays to come on our way to shell shocking the Melbourne storm or whoever our unlucky opponent may be in the 2017 NRL Premiership decider ;))
Always something to complain about
