I can't stand Barrett's team selections anymore. Maybe some positions we have no choice, but some we definitely do (e.g. Topine > Katoa). Barrett has played favourites with shitters the whole year and it has got to the point where you can't blame the players for being liabilities and continuing put in shit performances anymore.
so your biggest problem was that the player who only played for like the last 5 minutes was selected.
kicking game is consistently an issue and next year should improve significantly.
we also have no fluency in attack and takes too long to get the ball into a shape, and the opposition team has suffocated the backline move anyway.
some players just seem to have time and the moment our playmakers seem to be rushed all the time
I'm also sick of Averillos half dummy and run its fooling nobody.
a few times we had given early ball to hoppa but he is not able to beat anyone one on one I think schoup would have more of a chance.. only move hoppa has is the quick tip on or pass out to his winger but when opposition players are numbering up he has nothing.
what i saw was forward plays through the middle early ball to hoppa and coming back to the left when opposition had already closed down the options.
