We missed her run, carry and penetrating kicking coming out of the backline.
Lions just built a wall 30m behind the ball and caught everything we tried to clear. Thats why the coach said to be patient and go wide to get around the wall. We were better, but not good enough.
Didn't help that we lost 2 runners in Gee and Brazzale.
Not sure why everyone is writing us off, we were on top of the ladder before this game, and still =1st. Not bad considering we are playing without our coach, captain and last years captain for one reason or another.
The greatest difference between the two teams was our very poor kicking. We were extremely poor at hitting a target, chose the wrong option, lacked penetration, panicked kicked -not selecting a team-mate but simply blasting away. Time and again our kickers thought that they could kick further than they actually could and the ball was easily cut off by Brisbane. VERY DISAPPOINTING.
