We need to do the basics right..... : Tue Apr 23, 2019 5:50 am
Rugby League is essentially a simple game but we seem to have forgotten the basic skills....Tackle around the legs one down and one up ... opponent can’t run and can’t pass and will go down and stop a quick play the ball
Run onto the ball with aggression and pace.... we might then make the odd tackle bust
Don’t pass to a man standing still....
Both of London’s non intercept tries would have been stopped by a ‘proper’ tackle...... but both tacklers went ‘high’
What Woolford is coaching god only knows because to quote him great ‘D’ doesn’t work with poor tackling.
Our much vaunted fitness also looks suspect several players were blowing hard after just 10 minutes and we really do ‘flatline’ during games.
A big improvement required after a very ‘sobering’ Easter weekend that was seven minutes off ‘totally going pear-shaped’ !!!
