Only have to watch the replay of the 1st half when there was some pressure on and see our so called senior players (we all know who they are) turn over regulation 20-25 metre passes time and time again. Our senior players skill level is that far below par its laughable. :-[
Put Clarkson in the coaches box yesterday and the result is the same IMO. You can switch players around and make all the moves you like and have the best game day plans in place but have a senior core that cant execute the very basics and you get results like yesterday. Its as simple as that.
Need min of 8-10 decent ball users and boot out the hacks we continue to persist with. Couldn't care less if they are A, B or C grade as long as they have clean foot skills.
More of the mould of Fisher and no more Lamb, Kerridge, Graham, Lamb, Rowe, O'Shea, Mullett, Casboult types. I could keep going. :-X
I agree. Our senior group (200+ games) is in the main either injured, ordinary, or past it, and our core group (100-150 games) is much the same. As I've said before, I have a soft spot for Levi, but when your 100-150 gamers are blokes like him, Jones, Mullet etc., well, you can join the dots I'm sure. The only exception is Wright IMO.
