2 glaring problems

[amapusae]

Braidon Burns: good attacking player, but his shit defensive reads and lack of lateral movement is good for 2-3 tries against us per week. Feel bad for Kiraz who has to clean up his shit. It’s getting to Okunbor levels at this point

Corey Waddell: again, gets through some decent work but he’s good for multiple stupid errors and stupid penalties every single week. We need to buy / find a replacement for this guy , because the only reason he keeps his spot is because we lack rangey, versatile backrowers who can cover multiple positions if necessary

Agree with you about Waddell. He’d be a good backup. Or maybe off the bench for 15-20 a game. But if he is running out and playing 80 next year we have missed the mark.

Our inability to defend against tactical kicks to the in goal was our downfall; but luckily we had enough points to win - and a win is a win.

I don’t think he will be with Kikau and RFM in the side. He will be a depth player until his contract runs out and then hopefully a we bring a young guy through on minimum and get rid of these type of signings.

Averillo would probably have saved a couple of those with his superior positioning tbf.

 

[vegny]

Thought some solid contacts from burns today.

Waddell always has errors in him

Without JAC we would have been beaten soundly. Averillo would have added depth to the attack with his speed.

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

Im not overly stressed. We'll have a new coach with new recruits and an off season to work on things.
We cant score close range tries, no set plays, our kicking game is shit etc etc but none of it really matters at the moment.
We are playing better footy, Gus and the Club making all the right moves so happy just to see us score 36 points at the moment.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Burns is only playing centre because we have no wingers and Kiraz as to play there. Were much better with Kiraz at centre.

Yeah but also some unforgivable defensive reads

I agree. Would love to see Kiraz and Skelton on the right side once fully fit

 

[Doggiezbrah]

I agree with your points here OP. Another issue is the game management from our halves as we always seem to rely on individual brilliance than set plays. We are going to get punished by better sides!

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

Averillo plays and a few off those titans tries don’t happen. Declan’s positioning was always off the mark.

I'd rather both Kiraz and Skeleton at centre with us finding another winger, problem for next season though..

Brandon Burns: good attacking player, but his shit defensive reads and lack of lateral movement is good for 2-3 tries against us per week. Feel bad for Kiraz who has to clean up his shit. It’s getting to Okunbor levels at this point

Lol at least get the names right! We had a good win and you cant help but bitch about it.

 

[alchemist]

another problem is game management... when we are under the pump or have a lead, we need to be able to get through our sets, get to the kick, yardage, make the opposing team play out of their own end etc... play percentage football... but there are too many pushed passes, errors, bad kicks, penalties, 7 tackle sets conceded, missed tackles, soft rucks etc.

Back end of the game last tackle 10 out from the try line, Flano is organising the play. JMK looks at him, the ball is played and JMK ignores his half and dies with the ball. Not reading too much into it but just something I observed.

2 problems you dont need to worry about for long... No need to bring it up tbh.

Autocorrect ya knob. You think the best teams in the comp would get complacent after that game? Plenty of issues to deal with leaking 26 points

 

[Moedogg]

Kikau solves both issues next year.
