Back to Basics. : Sun Jul 12, 2009 3:38 pm  

McNamara should never have tried to change the way Bulls played when he took over, we've become a sloppy, error prone and weak hearted team under his control, compared to the Bulls that played basic but effective tough rugby under Nobbies control. Macca in the main has brought in on the whole a bunch of low skilled players that struggle to get the basics(tackling, passing and positioning) correct and then tried to turn them into a team that play expansive flash rugby.

A recipe for disaster.

Steve's had his chance now, it's time for a change and Bulls getting back to basics.

Yeah and if the board think he's gonna change next year by letting him off the hook this year theyve got another thing coming.

No, they think he'll be cheaper than replacing him

The best back to basics would be to get rid of all the dead wood and that means some of the back room staff as well as the players
