Quote Alan="Alan"I struggle to believe any player feigns injury, but a lot of Trinity players (and Catalans when they were at ours) appeared to get injured when we were putting pressure on their line. Another excellent, apparently legitimate, slowing down tactic is lying behind the play the ball - creating havoc for the dummy half.'"
I noticed this as well. How many times did we make a great break, and got close to the Wakefield line, only to be stopped from playing the ball quickly and subsequently losing all momentum due to a Wakefield player suddenly being injured in back play. This must have happened at least 4 times. We must get smart and use this tactic at the other end.
