  • Braith Anasta's passing action

    How awkward is Anasta's passing action? Seriously how does someone play that many first grade games and still resemble a cripple kid when he shapes up to pass? I haven't seen someone with such a bad passing game since Mick Neill in the 80s.

    He's the biggest fraud since Owen Craigie and both have played for souffs.

      He starts off as though he is quickly posing for a photo, and then passes the ball as though both of his arms are in plaster

        His passing technique makes me wistful for George Gregan.

              As I've said before, it is just a facade with Anasta and Smith. Anasta in particular knows he's biding his time - when was the last time you saw him take the line on? He quite simply can't throw that hot potato away fast enough (oh! please don't tackle me). He's doing nothing but protecting himself and getting ready for the last two years of his career and will justifiably go down in history as one of the most, if not thee most overrated players to have ever played the game.

                  One of the massive negatives with Anasta is not actually his kicking game but the fact that he never threatens to break or take on the oppositions line. This is one of the reasons why our attack is so readable and why our outside backs never get the ball with space in front of them. Carney on the other hand breaks the line frequently so when he gets the ball, he has the oppositions defence in two minds on whther he will pass or go himself.

                    Maloney will remedy this.I agree with you our outside backs have recieved very little ball this year.Kenny Dowal has also got to learn to create overlaps for his wingers instead of stepping back inside and taking the tackle most of the time.
