I've come across is that we've scored 5 tries in the 83 minutes he's been rested this year compared to 10 tries in his 317 minutes on the park. Defensively we conceded just 2 tries when he's been off the park too.
Thats telling man. Dont ever apologise for being honest. Even though hes improved, Im with you, hes not top 8 and MILES away from top 4. So we have to keep looking for somebody who offers Kodis speed after a fast PTB and run at the offside defense, linking with
Walsh etc or worst case 6 again. OR getting the ball to the play like a laser beam.
We got our PTBs down to 3.3s that game, it looked the best in the final 20 when
Kodi game on and was doing as I say, running at a line that still has players withdrawing, or feeding forwards to keep steam rolling the opposition. 3.3s or faster PTB + ultra quick 9 = win, as you will always end up in their red zone every set. They were doing it to us for 30miins of the first half. Luckily we ended up the fitter team.
On defense our line speed was terrible, we were in fact waiting for them which is why they were running 70-80m sets ending near our 30. That needs to change. We need the fitness
SK got into the team so our defense is running at the offense and trapping them within 20-30m.
Edit: Sorry all. I should have linked my post together.
