Quote: Deus Dat Incrementum "Some disturbing signs in the game today.
I noticed and the commentators picked up on Ratchford turning up on the right edge as an extra pivot but tipped the ball on about 5 yards before the defensive line. I found that very odd. I could have defended that play. Compare that to Trueman who plays very close to the defence to draw defenders.'"
Yes I noticed that on a number of occasions.
The attacker with the ball should be going right to the line to commit the defence - imho.
Trueman had a great game - short kicking was superb.
