How many tackles are we wasting in the opposition's red zone with simple hit ups? While I think Alvaro and Brown are good players, someone needs to tell them we don't need a hit up when we are 10 metres out from the tryline. I reckon we wasted about 25-30 tackles in the red zone with players hitting the ball up 1 out. I saw 2 potential attacking plays break down today because the ball reached Alvaro and passing it never entered his mind. Makes it easy for defenders to swamp him which in turn results in a slow play the ball and the defence having time to reset. While this isn't parra's only issue at this stage it is 1 thing that is driving me insane. Ask some questions of the defence FFS!!
