    BB's options are poor. Some of that is on him, some on the game plan. His execution is largely poor, and that's all on him. High kicks too long, he's allowed them to take marks. A couple of corner kicks good, that tactic I like especially if from slow ball.
    We genuinely looked more effective with him off the field.

    It's also down to team selection and coaching. His execution has been poor Test after Test.

      Time for Nisbo to move on ..Ardie now Jim

      Yeah that was shocking. They don’t look similar in the slightest.

      We are playing well. BB option taking the only real thumbs down.

      This half time panel is awful. Very origin like.

      @MajorRage I think Nisbo was just excited to see Jim on the field

            Fuck still kicking away the ball BB kills our attack every time.

            It’s the game plan. Blame the coach

            What poor kicking that’s on BB he’s kicking the horrible kicks.

            Yeah, but unless something's changed, it's down to the coach to pick & train the right players to execute the game plan.

            No argument there it still doesn’t make BB a better player now At his age I think it’s ingrained in him.

              Maybe if our 10 was more decisive and actually fucking ran the ball or passed it instead of aimlessly kicking it away. You know, that might help the rest of the backline aye.

                @Chris the volume of kicks you tard

                TBF it doesn't matter who his coach is, BB kicks a fucking lot, with very mixed results.

                But so many tells me he's the controller we need

                I've always thought BB would be better if there was no coach involved. He always plays his best when grinning and playing like he's in the back field with his brothers just pulling trick kicks out of his ass.
                Just let him loose, and say "play rugby".
                Perhaps not a viable strategy at his current age, and at this level, but... 🤷

                  I'm liking the way we're now able to decent forward pack on the field despite injuries to key positions and blood new players at the same time. Jason Ryan doing an excellent job

                    Interesting to see - I love my dodgy feeds of these games - you get to see the half-time coverage of the field... the AB replacements "training" on the field - and I assume it was D-Mac - practicing kicks to the oppo-22 corner over and over again. With somebody there returning it each time.

                      @Canerbry Not at this level - as I say - but I'm just saying... he's always seemed like an instinct-player.
                      ie: read/comprehend the statement "Perhaps not a viable strategy at his current age, and at this level, but... 🤷"

                                  Accidental offside for a full arm penalty.

                                  The call we didn’t get in the Lions tour from Poite and Garces.
