[quote="Barrie’s Glass Eye"]It’s not as black and white as people are making out.
Do we want to continue to see Ash pull off these intercepts and take that gamble when it’s on…yes. Do we also want to see Ash have more faith in his inside man, bite in less and as such concede less, but also be in less positions where the intercept is his only chance of stopping a try…also yes.
The good with Ash far outweighs the bad but I would be absolutely amazed if it’s something Rohan is not trying to tighten up.[/quote
The problem is, if you start making an issue out of something that’s not really a major problem, then the player can stop trying things, play more cautiously, and you can actually detract from the positives in their game. Handley is full of confidence at the minute, and backs his ability. I’d just be reinforcing that really…..
But who knows what coach is saying…..
