Quote the fax in asia="the fax in asia"As has been mentioned 2 points is always welcome, however I cannot help but have flashbacks to the pre season when fax had to cut its cloth accordingly'
In hindsight (always with a glass half full), RM ventured to stress he would be using the experienced guys to help bolster the coaching, from reading the reports every week the attacking/ finishing guys are not doing their job, I constantly read we knocked on, have no idea on how to put the ball over the line, are clueless in the oppos'22 excetera excetera.
A coach can only do the work during the week, once the thirteen are over the white line he is more or less powerless to affect things, but is that not what the senior players should be doing on the park, guiding encouraging, reprimanding?
Or did I read it all wrong and RM runs a democratic ship as long as people do as their told, again rumours about players being told they will do this, that or the other or there is the door.
We as fans do not have a right to know what RM says behind closed doors every time but some clear guidance as to what is happening will go a long way to appease disgruntled fans.
As always just my thought and humble opinion.'"
Not sure on the running of things but with the likes of Murrell and Grix in the side you would have thought their experience would be an asset to any coach and I think you can see them step up to the plate during games.
Our defence had some questions against it earlier in the season and has improved to be the second best in the division from the latest table whereas our attack is the worst of the top 5 clubs by some margin.

I thought I saw a difference yesterday in the attack with some good offloads and second phase, the attacking lines looked to be a bit deeper angles coming on to the ball with more pace with less of the flat pass, we did still put some ball down but at least we were trying to run the ball.

| Big game for you lads on Saturday.
If you lose, prospects of the top four look bleak.

I too thought Halifax played some good rugby, some excellent lines were ran by the dummy runners. The HB had the option of an inside runner, a flat ball or passing it around the back. The problem was the execution. If some of those passes had have stuck (on another day all would have stuck), Fax would have had 3 or 4 more tries.

Yep and more options for the attack mean more questions for the defence which has been lacking.
We have looked slow getting the pass away from dummy half in a lot of games and playing too much flat pass close to the line, it leaves no margin for error which has led to a few interceptions and contributed to the knock on problem, by the time the receiver has got the ball he has either slightly overrun it and puts it down having to stretch back or has little control with a loose carry and puts it down when he gets clattered by the defensive line being in his face due to our slowness.
When Andy O'Brien had a run with us you could tell the difference, much quicker and better because of it.
Young Brandon Moore is improving all the time and will be a good one for us as he gains experience.

This is the third time in a week i am agreeing with Griff.
I knew I wasn't myself lately but it's worse than I thought, what's going on
I'm going for a lie down.

Eventually, folk realise that I talk sense.
It's not always what you want to hear, though.
