O'Shea gifting WC turnovers and Plowman missing a couple of sitters was enough to lose momentum and the game. Not saying it's ever that simple but ..... could should would
I agree with others regarding Plowman's dip in form. It's clear the gap left by Doc will be difficult to manage. Particularly given injuries to Rowe (initially), Marchy, Willo, Byrne, ACOS, and Weiters . I think this has had a flow on effect to our backline, resulting in the disorganization and high scores against we've seen.
I'll say again- little Zac is growing quarter by quarter. He already punches well above his weight. It's his ability to recover and go again while sustaining full focus on the specific contest and the game. This allows him to resurface, make good decisions, and hit a target. Speaks volumes about his aerobic capacity and footy brain. Future B & F material IMO. Hopefully his mate Samo will hit some form soon. Although small they will become pests to their opponents.
O'Brein had a good impact on the game as did Dow. We saw glimpses of why they were drafted. Clearance work and bursting from packs + outside endurance, run, and quality disposal. Looking forward to watching the youngsters develop together, despite the inevitable L tally.
Fisher is a real footballer and makes good decisions...Samo needs to learn from Fisher about application and attacking every contest, he is just choosing when to go at the minute...
OBrien is more composed with the ball than Paddy, the latter tends to waste the footy but does contest well and is learning when to run and where the footy is going....both going ok IMO and just need more games. The problem comes when Cripps is held and the likes of Dow have to try and step up and fill the gap, not Dows fault but we need more from the likes of Kennedy when fit, Kerridge etc...
