This line speed thing is a massive problem.
Is this really what they are being told to do?

It can only work in the objective of conserving energy if the contact is spot on and youre finishing the tackles off more often than not.

Well that’s brought us down to earth, but in reality it’s been coming for a couple of weeks. We’ve looked poor since the second half against Warrington, and this personnel doesn’t look like turning it round. We must must must do something more than Sangare about our front row options. We get totally dominated in the front row and it kills us.

After a great run of form one bad performance doesn’t make us a bad side again, but everyone agrees we need more strength in the front row for next season.

Coming off the pitch we looked like we had played two halves. Absolutely shattered.

Agree and in theory the benefit are you don’t give away penalties or 6 agains and don’t let them in behind you.

Even though we are not missing tackles, all teams are making loads of metres. If they then kick well and get drop outs you end up getting battered and have to do tons of goal line defence.

We have been doing it for weeks now and Looks like we’ve now hit the wall

So if we beat Cas we play Huddersfield away Saints away and Wigan in the final .
Only 4 wins to be crowned Champions then.

Thankfully we're conserving energy with our line speed.....

Well, look who’s scored… what happened the last time he scored over there in the second hal?

Re: RD 26 | Catalan Dragons (A) : Mon Aug 29, 2022 6:09 pm  

Whatever happens in the rest of this game I'm glad we've not got a coach like radford who puffed his cheeks out and said he's got no answers in the post match interview.

I reckon Dwyer will have a couple of chicken run trys in him when he comes on.
