The midfield group last year (possibly this year too) didn't adjust well to not having the +1 or +2 running in from the back line. Instead of getting a handball to a running from half back Clarry either handballed it to someone in close like Brayshaw who would bomb it or Clarry would bomb it himself.
Hopefully they have adjusted. The one thing i noticed was Trac was forward handballing 15 m into space for a man running into the goals, which none of the previous midfield group has ever done. Probably because Trac never had it drilled to into him to handball backwards to a runner.
This is true and very overlooked (the effect of 6/6/6 with our young midfield group being slow to adapt).
One thing I loved on the weekend was our wings, especially Tomlinson on the fat side holding his width at a stoppage and Trac looking laterally to him with a short kick which completely broke the play open.
None of our midfield really got to train with each other over 2019 pre-season and it showed.
