Western Force vs NSW Waratahs - Round 13 - May 9 2015

[agrugger]

Keep the ball alive, run from deep, support the ball carrier and drive him on, hit the rucks, move the ball to the space, run into the holes, put a gap in 'em, don't get yourself isolated, draw the man, get your hands free, make yourself available for the pass, offload, play as unit,
GO FOR BROKE AND ENJOY IT LIKE BUGGERY!!!

And don't be afraid to pick some new faces in the starting XV...

We (and everyone else on the planet) create so many more attacking opportunities when the ball is kept alive and off-loaded, or quick picked. I know it's difficult to maintain the pace, but with this style, you don't need to run 15 phases to create an overload, you are usually through the line after 2-3 phases and the defense is scrambling. If only it was this easy to just implement.

Dear lord,

Please let our ball-runners hit the ball at pace,

Amen.

Dreading Saturday and the more I think about the Blues game the more angry I get. The way the Blues came out already firing, ready to run, the ball was never left static, and holding up Force players reminds how the Ireland beat the Wobblies last year. Pek, Benny Mac, Hodgo, Mafi......knew what was going on, but the rest seemed clueless for the first half. Like just tracking the Blues passing and offloads was pathetic, always a couple of seconds after the fact. Nick went looking for work fos obviously he wasn't gonna get anything passed out to the wing (God forbid), but he decided to fluff everything as well! Just seems like cruise control kicks in for a while before the penny drops. Well Force guys - hate to tell ya but there's some pretty aggro fans out here and we're sick of the promises after10 long years! The game starts from 0.001 seconds until 80 minutes later - not the last 15 minutes FFS! Learn to frikken pass the ball!

If the forecast was for rain on Saturday I'd be thinking twice about going. That's how over the current 'game plan' I am.

Amen brother! We all will, week in, week out, 10 seasons running!

[shasta]

maybe we just don't have the talent to execute a more expansive game?

Well at least someone gets it.

Well Polota-Nau is out, which means we only have to fight against a team containing 14 Internationals.

Praise God!
