Helps when our efforts are so poor. Any opposition could have done what they wanted tonight.

We are actually winning the clearances.

Your solution of a 2nd ruck to fix our issues down back and to fix our lack of outside run should see yourself with a big helping all over it.
....and we are still winning the clearances

Well logic of a 2nd ruck not being a key back doesn't seem to work for you. Why not stats?

Too slow and our defense has been caught out especially with Weitering injured.I have been saying all year that speed and fast ball movement is our cryptonite.
The Swans play the same way.
The Giants have been a sleeping Giant (pardon the pun).
They are a good side, we have relaxed our pressure and bam..they are back in form.
Not worried about losing but I am about mot being able to put the clamps on them.

I think with our slower bigger mids we need to dominate rather than just break even in clearances.

I've been saying it for years and that's why we can't afford to get slower with a 2nd ruck. We need as much run speed and carry as we can get

Aside from the Richmond game, has there been an instance where Orasio hadn’t been subbed off?
It’s not good enough. We should be able to sub off a player based off the needs of the game and players performance - not be forced into the same player subbed off every time.

Has Charlie shifted himself into defence tonight?
Has the right to do it to stop the run ons, but I haven't seen him do it.

Geez Harry is struggling helping out with ruck duties. He only has 5 goals. Imagine if he wasn't rucking. Lol
