I've been thinking about this post, now the dust has settled after yesterday's cursing and screaming at the TV
I don't think we're stupid so much as lacking an elite "thinking" player. Someone like Cleary or Hynes who clearly see the game at a much higher level. I think Mahoney is the best we have by far. But he's not getting a lot of help. Maybe Oloapu is the answer? I'm feeling it's a question that needs an answer soon
I'm not sure if I posted it or spat the words into my beer, but our strike players are broken play players; Burton, Kikau, JAC, Kiraz (though with his tackle breaks, he does create some of the broken play himself). We play "reactive" footy, not constructed footy. We capitalise on an error or getting a roll on. I'm ok with reactive footy as long as when we need to, we're able to construct something. But we can't seem to, as our strike are looking for broken play that our current pack isn't delivering consistently enough. So we look lost in attack when we have to make up points
I hope KO is the answer, or we find a really clever 7 somewhere. We need to if we want to sing our team song in September
