Rd whatever v Cats

[UUaswan]

Depends where you’re reading. Some sites are more balanced than others

The main consensus for a month has been whether or not the game plan will stand up against good opponents

We had 2 average teams quell the game plan and nearly beat us, only a matter of time before a good side would destroy it.

Add to that the elephant in the room about us and big games in general, its easy to see the negativity about our season, even with all the wins.
Too many have seen this play out before

Play 2 Rucks, play 3 tall fwds, put your guns in the middle, tag off the back flank.

Thanks God for Tom Mc and Edwards, it would have been a lot worse if not for them

Pretty ordinary 2nd quarter sadly. Some really dumb decision making from a few of our players is certainly not helping our cause. That late goal just keeps us in touch, but fear we could get really blown away if they get an early run on in the 3rd.

Our forward structure has gone to crap today sadly - not helped by Rosas going off with that ankle.

And I love Rowy - but he is not a forward in any sense of the word. If he is going to be playing primarily up there in that role, he should be dropped to the VFL.

You need to understand the role Rowy played. Stewart has been destroying teams with his intercept marking and run out of defence. Rowy did an excellent job on him and it was not his fault that the team lost.

If you want to point the finger at someone have a close look at Chad Warner

Play 3 talls and Stewart has his hands full
Play Chad and Rowy in the middle and the mids are half a chance

Only team in the 8 that has a gimmick, handball fast game, no other side is as predictable as us.
Geelong just admitted to rotating guys thru Grundy to tire him out, blind freddy can see the vulnerability yet we still run him into the ground.
Look at the last few weeks, teams are letting Blakey run riot knowing he will put it in the corridor and due to some @@@@house game plan the bloke marking it will handball to someone under pressure

12 months ago, the hottest midfield property was Warner, now we come up against Bailey Smith and he attends 2.5x the Centre Bounces as Warner does. 25yrs old, 100% midfield time.

Rowy 150th was all about his sacrifice to make others better, he was the defensive mid that let others run, 5 @@@@ing centre bounce attendances
