Fm we've lost every forward battle so far. Every team have smashed through the eels pack easily. You can't blame that on referees mate.
With the personal we have i can't see anything changing. We have the bottom 3 pack in the comp , probably close to the worst, thx to rubbish retention and recruitment
Plus if you get dominated in the ruck ,and if the opposition dominate the run land on their front , they get a quick play the ball and we're left stranded with players out of position.
Thats how you dominate possession and defence, which we are both losing
'Plus if you get dominated in the ruck ,and if the opposition dominate the run land on their front , they get a quick play the ball and we're left stranded with players out of position' - This is what im seeing also, Chief.
Maybe attitude isn't where it needs to be Coryn for that first contact as you say, but, attitude / effort / energy could also be impacted by whats happening on the field.
Good opportunity this week to see if we can change this, or if its going to take a change in roster.
I don't think its attitude. Jnr paulo isn't even a mid tier prop now and wouldn't be worth 400k on the open market, Williams should be @ lock. We have one decent people but he's inexperienced in big Sam. Want to see more from Moretti and Teancum Brown on the bench
Jnr has had it. Bench lock at best he's finished
It's not too late to make this real
