What has been known to many people since 1908 is that it is demonstrably manifest ... that if your forwards don't dominate the ruck ... your half back and hooker will struggle to ignite attack.
Last night the "World's " best players Harry Grant and Jerome Hughes were brought back to the pack with a bang ... they were made ineffective by our forwards winning the ruck.
Their centres were going to destroy Parker and Harper .... didn't happen and both our blokes won a points decision ..
In a different thread the enlightened are discussing .. line speed ... simply put, line speed does not exist unless you win the tackle .. slowing down the play the ball ... just saying we had no line speed ignores this basic requirement .
