Like last week a bit of the recent history CFC turned up - timid/introverted leadership which cascaded down through the group.
When BB first arrived and particularly in our 1st season under him, we attacked the contest and opponent with gusto and intensity - not any more. Ah, yes, intensity, there are those of us who remember CFC sides that burned with intensity and ruthlessness... this year, back to nicey nicey. Last night we were so polite (and bereft of REAL leadership) that once Rottingwood applied a modicum of pressure our leaders yelled, 'quick girls, get out of the way so the Mighty Maggies can kick lots of goals in succession'. We play well and kick goals when our opponents let us (take the foot off the pedal etc).
The acceptable:
First 10 minutes or so (or until the opposition turned up) / 2nd half. Whatever the game plan for the 2nd half was, that's what we should stick to.
Matty Kreuzer.
Murphy the player (not murphy the leader... gets a small 'm')
Casboult
Few nice glimpses from Cuningham.
As the game wore on, Weitering showing a return to a semblance of his former self.
The disappointing:
The way we folded once Rottingwood targetted our youngsters & prime mover - testament to poor on-field leadership. We become so soft once challenged.
Polson
Lamb
Mullett
Wright

Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
