Sneyds tactical kicking wasn't great at cas last year, that was left to Ellis a lot, it was his off the cuff play, chip throughs, off the cuff kicks to the corner on 2nd tackle etc that caught the eye. If you try that sort of play without backs who read it it can look bloody clueless. Maybe it's just a case of the backs reading his play book. Sneyd isn't an organiser who'll lead you round the park, pryce needs to do that which he can do but it's not his ideal game.

An acting half who can dominate the ruck and organise rather than one that just runs his blood to water would fit in better with the current halves and would have helped Miller last year as well.

Long kicking game is miles easier when the pack have the upper hand. Being able to kick off the front foot from around half way with a retreating defence is a lot different to getting it from a slow ptb whilst sat in the pocket on your own 30. On Friday night in particular it would appear that he was having to kick from deep in our half too often.

Very true. It's been some fairly aimless kicks near the line that have been most disappointing. Lack of comms with his backs hasn't helped although to be fair I'm not sure how alert they are most of the game.

Our halves, for once, are not the problem.
None of our 2nd rowers are ball handlers and our backs (in general) are far too slow. On Friday, once we started to throw the ball about we looked dangerous down our right side as Michaels & Lancaster have pace to burn. Really looking forward to see how these two progress over the coming weeks.
