How good was our football under Worthy? P/O season not amazing.

After that it was mainly 'give it to Hucks' which was exciting and generated some good passages of play, but we weren't a free flowing unit by any means.

Lambert Football was better and Farkeball was amazing in the championship where we could be confident of outscoring teams more often than not.

I think all 'styles' are ultimately defined by having the key players.
