Not sure I totally agree with the brackets. We look like we are taking more care in our pass selection and look more focused in catching the ball before trying to do somthing with it (extra beneficial in all this wet weather). Yes, we are doing more offloads but they are controlled ones.Offloads (not obsessing over completition rates)
Yep and the fact we are starting to push the envelope in terms of creeping up inside our own line. I didn’t mind the fact we gave away a few six agains as it’s a ploy the best teams use, then you back your defence to eventually force an errorI was thinking last night when was the last time we looked comfortable defending our line for multiple sets
JD constantly refused outside help. Didn’t want a defensive coach and didn’t want a kicking coach. I think we had a guy from the Swans do 2 sessions with the club only for JD to say we know the drills don’t need you anymore.Hornby did say in his presser this week the biggest change has been the kicking game.
It’s hard to think that Hornby or someone didn’t say that to JD in which case it was boneheaded decision to not try it. It would have been easiest thing to change…
I think raider's point is that under JD at times the team suffered from a "don't look down" approach to completion rates.Not sure I totally agree with the brackets.

I think the difference with the offloads is the awareness from the rest of the team that it is coming. No one was ready for it before. It is a different mindset now. Like the supporting play we have now when there is a break.Not sure I totally agree with the brackets.

How about adding the work of Furner as defence coach. That is the biggest difference.There's been plenty of changes which have impressed me...
I really liked JD as a bloke, said everything right, but it's obvious the further we move away from him that he really was not the right coach for this club.
- No.1 being our defensive structure changes on our edges (hold-and-slide vs up-and-in)
- Moving Keaon to the middle
- Using Moale properly (starting workhorse vs pseudo-impact player)
- Utilising Latrell's kicking game
- Wighton into the halves and Cody on the right (though this was probably more by necessity, but a good move none-the-less)
please please please explain this term?Long kicking game designed to just thundercunt the ball as high as possible (not obsessed over lollipop kicks to corners)
.
Kicking a little lob to the opposing winger is only better than kicking out on the full, for last play options. It wasn't really a light bulb moment to change this. But Jack and Latrell kicking now is a whole new dynamic to our last play options. We can kick out of trouble, the kicks are harder to catch, there is an opportunity for a kick chase and to contest the ball. I think that the more Latrell kicks the better he will get.Hornby did say in his presser this week the biggest change has been the kicking game.
I can see Raider's kick being added to the NRL lexicon under kicks. With bomb, torpedo, chip, looping bomb, drop kick, grubber, place kick.please please please explain this term?![]()

What sort of high profile media personality would waste their time on a flog like that?Speaking of Kent, I read during the week what was actually said to him to evoke his response
As bad as Kent is what sort of flog shoots their mouth off in public like that guy did
