Given TDK was injured last week we basically played with 1/2 ruck last week.
Our midfield was no better this week despite having essentially 2 rucks.
Our forwardline wasn't helped with TDKs presence.
Why do we persist with this?

2nd week in a row we sh*t the bed after qtr time when an opponent applied quick, relentless pressure - the formula to reduce us to clacker chasers for the day.
Team apology to Crippa.
Obvious passengers... Cottrell, O Hollands, Marchbank and Pitto.
Few blokes in the Magoos should be rubbing their hands together.
MC... wake up to yourselves.
Charlie... 3.7, speaks for itself.
Midfield, except for Crippa - terrible.
Devoid of authority and confidence.
Didn't at all look like a top 4 side.
Embarrassing.

Bigheads strike again !!
Pittonet - utter dud, get rid of him
Marchbank - never liked him and a huge liability, boot him out
Boyd - disposal was appalling and got found out tonite for being way too loose
Williams - before getting injured, shirked it
Curnow - massively over-rated & unreliable
Cottrell - exposed at senior level
We have too many lemons and not enough 'tough as nails' types who dig in hard when it gets tough.
Dogs wanted that win from the first bounce & played like their season depended on it, once again our guys just went though the motions in the belief it was going to magically happen.
And as for some of the undisciplined free kicks we gave away .............. spare me !!
Herés a novel thought, how about some of our defenders try to punch & spoil ?? Two or three times our idiots tried to outmark them instead of opting for the smarter play, we are just too dumb at times.
When things are going our way we look great but when the opposition apply a lot of pressure we wilt. It happened last week and it happened again tonight, the opposition clubs have now worked us out.

Fantasia while maybe not the answer, plays the link up role between midfield and forward. Not a small crumbing forward like Owies or Motlop. His delivery inside 50 is pretty good in an area we are pretty poor at.

Looking forward to the Magoos game tomorrow.
