I have a couple of points to ask Mr Hargreaves, who I presume directs our training sessions and dictates the game tactics.
1. At throw ins - why do we persist with trying to throw the ball at Showumni's head ? He appears incapable of jumping more than 3 inches of the ground. He is not Tim Sills!!
2. As this seems to be our main tactic, opponents always double up on him making the chance of him connecting with the ball almost as likely as winning the lottery. Why do you continue to coach that ??
3. Is it your instruction for the team to a) not take quick throw ins b) insist all team members remain static to make it as difficult as possible for the thrower to find a team mate?
I am not suggesting a change of tactic will change our fortunes, but it would lower my blood pressure and stop our opponents regrouping at their leisure.
