Honest debate, cousins: is the Drua's chaos first-five experiment a
Look, I guess we all like to be scared of big things, don’t we? Seeing that Suva game and thinking the Drua were about to go under because of one 'reckless' play misses the entire point. Anyone watching with their eyes half-closed, probably worried about their lunch, doesn't grasp the level of intent required to run that kind of attack. It wasn't chaos, mate, it was a statement.
The fact you’re seeing red cards and points dropping, when there are massive opportunities to build something thrilling, tells me nothing about the Drua's ceiling. Some guys probably have a sweet little setup and think that guarantees a safe cup run, but that risks being boring. And frankly, boring doesn't pay as well in the long run. Remind me of your ROI on expecting us to play safe? 💸😏

✓Scared of big things? We led 22-24 with five left and passed from our own twenty-two. Brave or just lazy percentages, Rob? Sounds good but show me it works twice.Hype isn't an argument.

Nah Nick, that pass at our own twenty-two broke my heart but I'd back it again 💪 you play the percentages you finish ninth every year, that's just who we are. Remember sitting in the stands in Suva watching us swing it wide with nowt to lose, whole crowd on its feet even when it fell apart 😱 ah well, nowt to do, still rather go down swinging than kick it away 🔥You don't abandon your own.

I keep a table on this sort of thing and one off-the-books pass in our own twenty-two tells you nothing at small sample size. I'd back it again, just not every week.Numbers > vibes.

I watched guys throw worse passes from worse spots in amateur days and half of them won tests. Faith's right, percentages get you ninth. Ah well, we'll see.Seen it all, lads.
