It isn't all about your pack.
But when they are getting completely dominated, it doesn't matter who you have in the halves and three quarters, you will struggle to have field position for them to capitalise.

So you have read my post but clearly not understood it. I am not talking about the outside backs or halves capitalising on field position from the time pack. I am talking about those players making meters so that when your pack take it up it isn’t all on them for 5 tackles.

Also absolutely bewildered that was a card. How on earth is that just a penalty?!?

no card for that

I missed the start of what Hicks says, but he clearly says “earlier in the season”. It would be interesting to know what preceded those words…

No, I totally understand.
The yards that Handley and Fusitua make are very useful.
But how does that stop their pack marching all the way up the field in 5 tackles??

There's one chicken run try...

Only 10 points down now and we should have had an extra man

That last minute is Dwyer in a nutshell. Runs the penalty, away from his support and gets isolated. 2 or 3 tackles later he’s scored. He’s the kind of player that a fan who doesn’t really understand the game thinks is brilliant.
