Quote: moto748 "People keep saying this over and over and over again, and whilst it is self-evidently true, it's far from being the full story, is it? It's a bit too much of a get-out-of-jail-free card for my liking. There's been plenty of occasions when we've had the field position, but lack of grunt from the pack doesn't explain dismal positioning, lack of structure in attack, sloppy passes that go behind attackers, wayward and inappropriate kicks, etc etc.'"
I agree however I don’t agree that is all down to John Winder.
There is enough talent and ability in that team to be doing much better than we are, the problems come from the coach and those responsible for recruitment.
I wonder how much of a say that Winder had on the recruitment of Burgess & Clark? I wonder how much of a say he has on tactics in general?
