Tim Smith has proven his quality time and again over the seasons he's been with us. His kicking has never been good and I would like to see a half with a kicking game play at the side of him [cough sammut cough]. However, what's he supposed to do when the structures/runners off the ball aren't even there to give him good options? Individually the team is good but as a team we are pathetic. Sick of seeing the forwards receive the ball on a standing start with no depth. There's no nice attacking structure of flow to our attack and too many times we lose the wrestle on the floor. To leave Godinet out last weekend was criminal as well. Godinet and McShane spelling.

Quote: captaincaveman "Trying to kick a 40/20?, a kick into the in goal area to force a repeat set?

Unfortunately he has a poor kicking game ,is poor defensively and very rarely takes on the line. His saving grace has always been a good passing game, missing out men and putting players into gaps but even that this season is nowhere to be seen.

Our halfbacks are the major problem, hence we are scoring so few points.'"

I wish the half backs were the major problem. Powder puff defence, a lack of desire to make the tackle, poor defensive structures and no cohesion.

Quote: TRB "I agree he hasn't been playing very well, but I still think we see the best from him, or any halfback, when the forwards are winning'"



Sunday was the absolute prime example of this.

Absolutely true; we look disorganised and confused in defence, and too unfit to maintain any structure - and the tackling itself is poor; we don't wrap the ball up, we don't control the ruck and we don't apply any pressure to the kicker - or protect the player receiving the ball. Stick up a bomb against Wakey - you'll almost always get something out of it.

With regard to half-backs - Tim Smith is still one of the best passers of the ball in SL, but as I've always said, his kicking game is sub-par; our last tackle options as a result are very limited, and rarely pressure the opposition. And Miller doesn't help him at all - he's like a headless chicken.

Quote: captaincaveman "The stats say we are pretty average at missing tackles, but have fewest attacking kicks in the league,'"

Do the stats count players strolling through the defensive line untouched as missed tackle? Surely you have to attempt a tackle to miss it.
