Its quite obvious, the team has been drilled and structured into a couple of set plays ONLY. There are no plan B's or C's if Plan A does not work out.
I for one was angered by people bagging out KK. I still believe he is far better than Hodko for the current position, and there is no-one currently better for the number 7 in the squad.
The problem is our current structure really does not require a traditional halfback, even if you had J.T or Cronk they would be useless under our current structure.
As teams have copied Melbournes game plan against us from last years GF, this is where we need Plan B's & C's, or in other words VARIETY! This is where we need a Tradional Halfback to add that variety and the guess work in the opposition minds, unfortunately KK isnt that type of player (though he would be definately be a great utility player), I could see him add alot of spark out of dummy half (giving Ennis a break) with his darts as well as his long kicking game, with enough practice he could be very effective with his kicking game out of dummy half like Farah and Smith, especially giving that unpredictability from left-footed kickers.
Our style of play last season was brilliant, this year is nowhere near last years, even when Kas and Bupa come back it wont be as effective because you have Williams standing in the line like The Statue Of Liberty.
Having Williams starting the games and playing the full 80 his impact is non-existant, it is like being a man down......It is so difficult to watch, its only a matter of time before I need to start colouring my hair.
Williams has had the whole off-season and these 6 rounds to Gel into the team. He hasn't but the most dissapointing aspect is he has not shown any improvement, heart or team spirit
Hasler did it coming in as a new coach and James Graham did it coming from the UK, and they would of had a more difficult time adapting
