Pittonet in ruck, we're outscored 21-3.

TDK in ruck we are winning 19-2.

TDK in ruck we are winning 19-2.

In fairness to both, when rucks rotate so do the Mids, so it's difficult to put meaning to a simple statistical analysis that is meaningful.

I felt Walsh and Cripps have been well held so far, but also they have both been unrewarded for some terrific tackles. Bont and Libba get an incredible amount of freedom, Walsh does similar and gets pinged.

Cottrell only has 2 touches to half time.
I know when he was off Fantasia was supposedly filling in as cover for Cottrell.
Cotrell now seems to be covering for the fantasia role......of being a passenger.

Hewett doesn't deserve to be out of the 22 with passengers like Fantasia/Cottrell getting a game. Need to lift!

Cottrell is not the player you bring straight in after a long injury break. 2 rucks isn't helping us and one of our better mids isn't playing in Hewitt.

This feels like last week. We don't seem to have a response ?

Marchbank on West?

He reminds me of players we had in defence in the old sh1te days. He is unsure and nervy anywhere near it.

Yes, don't want to be 6 goals behind again when the response comes.

Marchbank slow as an old dog

[LP]

We look too focussed on opponents and not focussed enough on the ball.

A risky corridor run from defence by Saad, on his rt, pays off.

Spot on LP. Need to start hunting the ball
