He’s touching it far too often.

35th min PENALTY RAIDERS in front. The Sharks line drop not contestable and it’s out on the full. Sasagi now knocks on, a metre out.

Yeah just unforgivable to do another crash set again there, don't think Strange/Stewart touched it again

We just have no attack in the 20 . None at all.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

That's brutally bad red zone offence, Strange is our most dangerous half and i dont think he touched the football

Not sure throwing a cutout ball to the short runner is the play there

Weekes, Sasagi and Schiller on the right hand side is a disaster in defence. And attack for that matter.

They just thought not playing Fogarty in preseason would guarantee his fitness for the year.

The opposition know what is coming from us, every single week.

Just slow lateral passing, no shape, no bodies in motion. Nothing to respect so they just rush up and compress.

Years and years of it, and we don’t have an answer
In summary - lack of systems and coaching in attack

You've got probably the most damaging forward from nsw cup this year sitting on the bench and you don't use him at all when your forwards are getting battered??

Pretty wild how a coach can coached 500 games and just never bother being that fussed about learning how to coach a team to attack in the 20m zone.

It’s a pretty bloody essential part of the game but he just doesn’t seem fussed. It’s always like an afterthought.

Strange and Timoko are our best threat in attack. Get them on the same side and play towards that side

Good point. Some deviation to the rigid subs plan was required. Saulo not the guy we need out there at the moment, not a momentum shifter

Any chance of winning of snuffed when Levi dropped the ball - also, I’m fine with Schiller leaving. His defence is non-existent! Even just then, he was lucky they dropped the ball when they ran past him
