Woods in Origin

[tig_prmz]

farah needs to stop those run around plays.

works better than gallen taking pointless hit-ups in the opposition 10, he does it to draw in defenders and try to go around queensland

that's gallen's job. tuck it under your arm and run. if they dont want him to do that, he shouldnt be getting the ball inside the 10.

farah's job is to be creative, give halves quality ball etc. run arounds work once or twice but they become very pointless if you do it each set.

he does the same as tigers- that's why it peeves me off more.

?????WTF????

Maybe you are right. Just because you train to do this at every training session and told by the coach to do this sometimes, it's time for Farah to stop this practice!!!

not sure what you mean? do you agree or disagree? lol

NRLStats.com has Woods 10 hitups for 98 metres which is best forward on ground for metres per carry and only behind Gallen and Myles for total metres for all forwards. He was really good. Have to remember that in Origin he isn't the pivotal forward in the pack so he doesn't have to take 23 hitups a game.

That doesn't surprise me… almost every hit up he makes 4 or 5 extra metres after hitting the line. Not the most spectacular work but every metre counts, and the blues had a definite advantage in metres made through the forwards.

We got a goodun in Woodsy!

The other thing was the 10 metres was thrown out the window pretty early in the 2nd half ,don't worry I thought we were encroaching far worse than NSW

Agree, though I do think NSW benefited more, Thurston and Evans didn't have much room to work with, stifled their attack, not sure it affected NSW's attack, maybe there was less to lose, i.e. NSW attack isn't as good to start with
