What will it take for us as a team to play good exspansive rugby?
We are far too easy to defend against because we are so predictable.

Do we need an attack minded coach like Nathan Brown? When he was at St George he loved to play exicting rugby.

Or is it less workhorses and utility players in the team?

It's really boring to watch Hull FC. :(

Bit harsh? Granted last night it was boring and poor to watch, but its a bit generalised to say we are ALWAYS boring

I think we sometimes lack someone taking control of the game, moving us around the park and making plays which change games

it needs sorting, thats for sure

We haven't played exicting rugby since 2004.

Hull seem to worry about the percentages too much and are scared the try something off the cuff.

I disagree there, we have showed exciting play, just not consistently

wrong decisions and nobody taking control are our problems

wasnt a million miles away against brad,did some nice stuff. there had been a steady progression until then. i hoped we would have kicked on even more but we have gone backwards since. :(

Last night surely wasn't the right conditions for "expansive" rugby?

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.

Quite sad, really! :lol:

SPOT ON!

If we tried to play expansive rugby last night and dropped ball after ball the same people would be here moaning that they shouldnt throw the ball about and should respect posession. There is a fine line

I never mentioned about last night I just mean overall. We still never throw the ball out wide enough and do things off the cuff. All we ever seem to do is give it to say Horne have Tickle as a dummy runner and throw it the G. Horne from behind Ticks. Or same scenario but give it to Ticks on the shorts.

Another is Start to go wide but give a drop off back inside right into the sqaure markers. :roll:

The speed and accuracy of our passing is on the whole very poor.

Another thing that p!sses me off is that when defending, our line move up about 2 metres then stop and wait for them. Whereas Leeds and Saints have a rush defence, which works a treat.
