Has it ever occured to anyone else that are forward line problems may in fact be linked to the quality and pace of our midfield?
Due to the sheer pace the ball is often cleared out of the midfield is it a possibility that that is why we seem to have a problem finding someone who can take a grab, contested or otherwise, in the forward 50? Time and time again ive rewatched 03/04/05 games and seen our midfield pump the ball into the forward line to a player who was either half on the lead, still in traffic or they have simply bombed it too a pack....Could the sheer pace of transition from the midfield to the forward line be whats causing the problems?
Just curious if anyone else had ever looked at it that way...
