Timing of Set Plays

One thing I've noticed, it was painfully evident against the Tigers and was improved on marginally against Penrith is the timing of our set plays, especially down the right hand side. It seems that whenever the opportunity arises, we seem to either throw the ball behind the intended receiver or over run the play causing players to stop and take the tackle.

Do we just put it down to the new players on that right edge and hopefully it rectifies itself in the coming weeks, or do changes need to be made? I'm of the opinion that it will rectify itself, and that when it does that right edge is going to be just as dangerous as our left.

  • No! I think Jennings needs to be on the right side. I know he's a left edge player but I think he will benefit more from Foran on the right than from Norman on the left. Taka and semi and Norman on the left is unstoppable.

    The Taka Gutho combo will never work because Taka is a passer and Gutho is no receiver. Gutho is a one on one player needs space. So is Jennings. Foran can set them. Taka is an offloader and needs a great finisher like semi and Gutho is not right for Taka.

    Give Gutho space from a Foran pass and he will be great. He's getting offloads more than Forans passes and its failing
