A couple of times last night Brisbane were kicking to the wings.  I saw newman and weitering making sure the ball went out off hands, but the thing is, they both should have worked harder to allow the ball to bounce out to get the lasso rule instead, and this is the thing that makes me say that our boys lack nous. 

It might be coachable but we are what 9 weeks into a new season and still not taking advantage of rules? 

We arent talking young guys either.  You just know that smart footballers will take advantage without a coaches input.


Thats coaching my friend.

the same frustration with how many frees we give out in the ruck.

the same as our players never play for a free.

the same as harry doesnt know how to exaggerate a hold or in the back.

the same as our mids are clueless to drop the knees a few times a game to draw frees.

the list cant all be stupid.

Why can you tell already that haywood and  Ainsworth have smarts kicking is reasonable.

see a pattern?
