Quote 100% Warrior="100% Warrior"Honestly I think whether we sign a new #7 or not completely depends on the type of coach we are bringing in. A Daryl Powell type coach would be beneficial to our halves, especially a Woods/Williams combo who would be allowed to actually create chances and play off the cuff rugby rather than sticking to a rigid structure which just doesn’t compliment them. With a coach with a similar game attitude to Powell I think the need for a new #7 diminishes slightly.
My main concern is if we take a coach in the same mould as Wane and our halves will continue to be the a source of frustration. With this type of coach a new #7 becomes absolutely essential.'"
I disagree here. I think our attack was rigid and structured but over last few years has become much less so. It now relies on off the cuff stuff from Williams which he isn't that good at doing. I think Williams is much better with the organisation of a structure when he can then choose to follow or not, meaning unpredictability for defenders. Williams looked much better at the start of this year when they came out with a few new moves - runaround type stuff with Faz. As soon as that stuff falls apart it become the headless chicken routine.
