Not Finding Touch

It is a bloody joke. We defended our asses off for 5 sets or so, finally get a penalty, and we can't find touch. Amateurish at best and heads need to be pulled in. Last week we did the same.

Happens to each team once a year at MOST
yet this is the fourth of fifth time in half a season

stupid
 
and why when we get a penalty near the try line do we kick it out (and losing meters) instead of just tapping it and go???

Your sign has a habit of getting on the big screen :slight_smile: At the start of the game I was focused on the players running out that's why I missed it.
 
failing to find touch is about as dumb as kicking it out on the full from the kick-off.I can't think of another team who fails to find touch more then the tigers,its so frustrating.Having said that though,i was in line with where Steve Turner dived to drag the ball back in and he clearly dragged it forward,it bounced two feet in front of him.Also what about late in the first half when they got a penalty 5m out almost unde the posts and Farah kicked it into touch 20m backwards :crazy :bash

This I don't get at all. We can walk it back as much as we want but we kick it so the play moves to the sideline…stupid.

Teams normally do this when it is close to the sideline so they can move 20m in, why do it when you are under the posts.

And twice at least we kicked for touch to the long side of the field. What goes on in these guys heads.

The one which didn't find touch lead to their first try more then anything else IMO
 
I thought the Dogs player knocked it forward to get it back into play but yeah still not a good thing

Must be the coach….nah but we do not find touch it seems like once every game
 
what kind of Captain says Ok we are 5 metres out lets kick it back 20m instead of 5m out it was so stupid
also can someone tell me why Heigno was penalised when he pushed ennis over???
 
Some a bit dim around here…

Perhaps they want to create space so they can break the defensive line.....clues? :unamused:
Closer to the line is actually harder to break...

They are allowed to go back as far as they want they could walked to the 10 and tapped it

Did you ever think about left and right positioning?
To perhaps to play one or two in the middle third to draw in the defence before attempting to break the line…
