We are missing the offensive overlap

[Eagles2nv]

With no snake we are not getting the offensive overlap inside the opposition 10 meters. Hiku is playing well but he is not creating the wrap around play that a FB should.

It is becoming more evident by each game that he is out. Hopefully he is back fully fit after the next bye and we can make a charge for the finals.

Also compounding this is gift is crabbing, which is preventing the overlap on the right side attack.

It just seems to me this is were we are really struggling at the moment.

I know we lost but there's no need to be offensive.

I'm starting to question why Gift plays for 80 minutes, and is not given a break. It also downplays the importance of our bench. Since Gift's return Symonds has not had the same impact. I think he should be given much more game time.
