[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1062222, member: 56232"] I don't understand why Jones goes for a 6/2 split but then doesn't utilise the strength of that to bring on forwards early. He chooses a bench that is at odds with the tactics on the field, just like he chooses players at odds with the tactics. It's not to much that Jones makes incorrect selections or incorrect tactics, it's more that he is like a schizophrenic with one side making the selections and another making the tactics, the 2 don't seem to be linked at all. Against Aus why were we bringing on the forwards with 5 mins to go? Simmonds assist aside, that's rarely enough time to make an impact on the game. It's not the first time he has done that either, I believe it was the 6N where he went 6/2 and then left 2 or 3 forwards on the bench. [/QUOTE]
