His negative tactics makes me want to take out my eyeballs and grate them with a Parmesan cheese grater.
Rugby League is in a state of flux, we are in the entertainment business whereas the coaches are in the results business and one cannot be sacrificed for the sake of the other.
I’ve followed rugby league since the age of 6 and I live my life my it but SL and the international games are turning me off. I’d much rather watch a game from 15 years ago where there was skill, passion and intensity in every international.'"
You can have both. They are not mutually exclusive.
Losing a test match isn't a criminal offense but there is a way to lose and the way GB have lost the last 3 test matches has been nothing short of terrible.
NZ didn't have to work hard for the win today. Their defensive line was barely challenged. Throwing the ball around just for the sake of it isn't what people want but it's not too much to ask for some actual ball movement, clever lines being run and two half backs who are allowed to actually take a risk.
Playing centre for GB/England is pointless as you won't get the ball.
There was an example where GB got a scrum 20 metres out and one would think they would actually have a set play to attack from such an advantageous position but no, nothing.
All coaches need to be put on alert that 5 drives and a kick isn't cutting it. I don't know what it's like at Jnr levels but one has to ask the question on why does this county fail to produce genuine world class halfbacks and fullbacks?
