There could be some truth in that and what people might have forgotten is that Woosha has never liked going hard during preseason games.
What does it have to do with attack on the ball though?
What do you do, tell players not to have a crack?
I think people really misjudge the modern day pre season series. It’s two games now, right on the eve of the system. It’s not “go easy” or experimentation time imo. It’s all systems go. It had to be, you can’t just flick a switch. The players have to build into the season both physically and in terms of gameplan, you’re not going to just switch that off for two weeks before the season for the JLT series.
