Hopefully Ciraldo was just trialling combinations and his player rotation is better during season with a view to pack combinations and balance.
When scrums were packed, the size difference was quite evident. Also the team is playing with a high intensity manic energy and not maintaining composure. We also don't need to hug a player every time a mistake is made, just move on, refocus and just continue playing.
Also kicking game needs variation. There are not enough kicks to space, behind the line nor did we get any repeat sets and build pressure. They have to stop trying to win the game immediately from any point in the field and then getting frustrated when they don't.
The game was a good test in a way for playing against a niggling opposition. On that note the sharks have a lot of ***** in their team and will be watching them hoping they lose every game from now on. Whoever that player was who tweaked prestons ankle after he'd already hurt and gone to grab his ankle is a total ****. Am surprised a craig fitzgibbon coached team have such a shit vibe.
