Also there is no players on each othershoulders for off loads , i saw 8/9 tackles where players have been tackled and could easy of offloaded the ball'"
Menzies gets his arms free so often and is looking to offload but no-one is there. It was the same last year and I kept hoping someone would learn to read his game but it didn't happen and hasn't happened so far this year.
The short flat pass to the runner could work (Orford has the ability to do this) if any of our players were running when they hit the ball, rather than standing still and having to try and leg drive to make some ground, and our play maker had more than 1 option making it too easy to close down. Langley worked so hard driving the ball up when if he stood back another 5 meters and hit the ball moving his momentum would do half the work for him. Get him running wider with support and we could have something approaching a tactic. Worrincy scored 10 tries last year and a good few of those were from him catching the ball on the move.
Defensively we didn't seem to work hard enough at the play of the ball meaning St's were clearing the ruck far too easily and effectively taking out 2 players from our defence on every tackle. Once we start doing that it's no wonder St's halves found space to work.
It seems strange that he leaves us for an older, slower Aussie & move to Wigan where they are unbeaten with Deacs in the team & We are .... well beaten
