I don't know what the specific answer is, but if the opposition is going to exhibit predictable behaviour then maybe we can turn that into an advantage.
The opposition analysts must have a different view of Casboult's ability than some supporters have :o
I think that there are several angles to the opposition's focus on Casboult and the obvious response is kick it to someone else. However, having other genuine marking options will spread the defenders and force one on one competitions. Casboult's running patterns need work so that he can get free and playing him up the ground will draw defenders away from the contest. How the forward line is structured and functions needs some work and the delivery to the forwards has to change; don't just kick it on to Casboult's head.
