[QUOTE="Jakedood, post: 1027438, member: 72409"] I get where you're coming from, and its actually an interesting point, but being in position quickly as a forward in a 1-3-2-2 system isnt too difficult as you do have time to get reset if you're in the middle pods, maybe less if you're the flankers on the outside 2 pod. It's the half backs that have to be really fit to be able to get into a position to fling the ball out fast and be able to utilize the pods of forwards effectively, though I'd say it seems Jones expects the whole back line to be incredibly sharp and getting involved in random positions as he showed with Jonny May in the video So a really high work rate while keeping the USP of being able to bulldoze , and allow a smaller compliment of backs (though I'd say a Lawrence/odogwu at centre/wing would really help the balance a little) is the ideal platform. EJ will certainly not be asking them to cut weight extravagantly mind i'd guess, even though I actually feel Billy plays better with 5kgs off him. F=MA and all that [/QUOTE]
