Jackson Hastings says the Wests Tigers are at times too reliant on structure and need to play with more freedom as they fight to avoid their worst start to a NRL season in 15 years.
Flogged 26-4 by Newcastle on Sunday, the lacklustre Tigers' week went from bad to worse on Monday with Hastings charged with a dangerous throw and facing at least a two-game ban.
It came after the five-eighth was the only real spark in the loss, which was described by club legend Benji Marshall as below first-grade standard.
