Quote: Eastern Wildcat "While I think a lot of us has mentioned Childs performance more than our own, notably when Hull were offside a lot, why do we not try the chip over the top sometimes when games are going this way. It may just put the opponents on the back foot a little, and create a bit of doubt in their defensive line'"
Just expanding on that idea, I do frequently think that we could benefit from "thinking outside the box" a bit more, such as taking a quick drop-out when we have knocked the ball dead. At the moment everyone see's it as an opportunity to get some air back in the lungs having just defended a set of 6 and runs the shot-clock right down. Why not get everyone on side asap then bang it into touch while the opposition are still jogging back into position, or alternatively let them get set in their usual positions on the 10 metre line and halfway line and only kick it 15-20 metres for one of our speedsters to run onto and try and collect ??
Nothing ventured....nothing gained !!
