I watched the first half today. It is still a bit of dancing with your sister, but one could see the difference in how they transferred the ball across the ground instead of stop, wait, look, and go. It was go straight away. There was some good positioning by the players getting out in the open and players kicking or handballing straight away, and some better skills with hand and foot. Jefferson, I want to see under some real heat to convince me he will make it, but he looked a hell of a lot better in the contest. The downside is some players still make bad decisions and try to take on everyone (Pickett was one) when there was no need; they turn back into trouble. But with the way King wants the sides to play, one has to accept players will make mistakes, but hopefully, they will be a lot less later on. Full marks to King for bringing freedom into the side, and although there will be ups and downs during the season, I think we will be okay.

Just watched the utube version and can't add much the 46 stay the same but I will add how inpressed I was with Taylor and Howes.
