There’s no doubt it will be & I also have no doubt the coaches don’t want the ball as overused as much as we did at certain times. The problem as I see it is generally there is a skill error that increases the need to handball & we’re struggling to get the release handball.Brilliantly summarised, it needs to be JLos number one focus.
The one where there was 13 handballs still got the ball inside F50, but Johnson missed Switta with a releasing handball that added another 3 or so handballs to the chain.
We don’t utilise the forward handball enough & are looking to be precise with our hands instead of getting it into space & trusting our handling skill. We could bypass a couple of options with longer hands & reduce the opportunity of error with receivers spreading wider rather than adjacent to make the transition area bigger & harder to defend.
Bottom line is we need to get the ball from A-D without using B & C.
Clubs are now onto it & will continue to pressure the ball carrier, so it will be a big focus at training.
