We can't get the ball back once we turn the ball over because we have 2 rucks.
The silly thing is this, you get it right a few sentences later as we are using it by foot like we are wearing clown boots.

a) can't hit a leading target,
b) are not even trying to hit a leading target
c) or there is no leading target to kick to.

We've run down opponents and forced turn overs almost at will, then we kick it back to them from clear space and all our blokes are caught out of position pressing forward.
If we have a tall problem up until now it's Young who has been a virtual non-attendance, but if Weiters is out he'll be needed critically to lift.

Fantasia holding his spot in the team while doing SFA is really starting to make me wonder if there is more to it.
The blokes best footy was flakey and even that is well behind him.

Young is a confidence player....he has no confidence at the moment.
If Weitering has gone down, it's his moment to step up.

Its also related to our forward efforts. 3 big forwards takes up to much space. You constantly talk about players taking eachothers space and launching against eachother, thats part of the problem here. The leading space is reduced by 1/3 because you have the extra bloke in there taking up space.

Believe me, i didn't want Young in the side. In fact, if we were looking fit (pre-weiters injury) i would be subbing out Young and resting TDK back in his spot. Perfect time to give him a sniff at CHB and roll the dice.

Run is very important.....but no player in the history of the game has ever run faster than the ball.
So fix up the precision and accuracy of the disposal

100%. I said similar during the week.
One way to fix up the precision is reduce the number of rucks in the side.

Horrible, horrible ball use into F50, our blokes BigH and Charlie are in getting in front on the lead and we sit it on their head.
From half back, it's like there is soap on the footy, even when we aren't under all that much relative pressure.

Williams injured and subbed. The curse continues

Yet another clearance kicked straight to an opponent.
