But the attack just looks so different.

So I think that hasn't helped his case either.

But there's a few things going on.

Yeah, it is.

I think they also just, you know, you had the whole Adam O'Brien thing this year, but last year with what happened with Sexton, Galvin, like,

They sort of ended up in a scenario last year.

There was two teams that ended up in this situation where unless they win the comp, this will be what everyone talks about.

You had the Broncos and the idea that match was too hardcore and then you had them dropping Sexton when they were coming first.

Unless they won the comp, they could have been knocked out in the prelim.

They could have lost the grand final.

People were going to go, hey, why the fuck would you change something that's got you on the top of the ladder?

Yeah.

So I think...

it's a shame that they've only picked up more issues this year because it just compounds sort of a lot of the narrative that started to be last year.

Yeah, it's also gotten progressively worse across this year.

I think back to Vegas when they beat the Dragons and like obviously Dragons haven't won a game since, but the two tries the Dragons scored against them that day, you had a crazy try from Emre Guler off a kick.

And then you had when Guthrie had that crazy tap on and they just got it down in the corner.

Like they had to work so hard for their points.

And I know it's the Dragons, but...

last three or four weeks try straight through the front door that you just you just can't wrap your head around yeah so i don't know if the the the game changing and the focus being more around attack really aligns with that yeah the tries that they're letting in aren't off the back of like it's just missed one-on-one well yeah you go to the dolphins game and unfortunately like conor tracy i love him as a player and you know much better player than i was but
