Poulsen hadn't demanded a game at NB's so what would have been the difference in playing MacKay especially as it would have allowed us to similar balance to last week. Kruzer great lost , second efforts and intensity , everything we didn't have today. Based upon the effort today if we have an injury to a key player we are really going find it tough. Lacked leadership, intensity & spirit at times. Weiter, I am at a loss, never seen a player go back ward so quick. Our lack of basic skills was highlighted today, a disorganised rabble. Our inability to create positive forward entries to hit a target is country league standard. Simple skill errors not being able to string together 3-4 disposals made it easy for the the Suns . Our lack of vision when looking for targets must make it hard for any one who is a forward. Jones , is being found out ATM, with his style of play, but with the lack of support , is caught out.
Jones' attack on the footy, getting to contests, second efforts, etc., etc., are extraordinary, but he has to mark the pill not just punch it.
If you published a poll on this site about whether Jones was worth a run in the ruck, probably 80% of our members would have said yes. We did that today in the last quarter after the horse had bolted.
I'm not going to talk about what we did instead, but at one stage we tried Weitering and Charlie in the F50 ruck stoppages as well!
