DTBS,
its very difficult, nigh on impossible, to show any fluency when you can't hit a target and plan A, B and C is to kick it long. Fluency absolutely requires better skills than we have, confidence in those skills and the chance to execute those skills.
You don't have the skills, you don't develop the confidence and then you compensate by doing clever things like handballing to a bloke standing still instead of say, kicking it to a leading forward.
Effort is fine but if all you do is run everybody into the ground and then turn the ball over the your opponents, then all of that effort is wasted
But thats just me.....and premiership winning coaches
