It was pointless running McKay vs Nankervis, and it'll be twice as pointless running him against Lycett and/or Ryder.
Unless of course our season is about gaining another No.1 pick to wedge Kelly onto the list!
At this stage on a cursory level they are making the same mistake with McKay that they made with Casboult, they are taking a player's A-Game and discarding it for their B-Game.
The other problem for us is it's was Ports hard as nails mids doing the dominating, against Jones, Oliver, Viney, Hibberd, etc., etc.. Next week they have Cripps and a bunch of kids to deal with.
93 uncontested possie advantage to Port...thats a lot of Port players running hard and a lot of lazy Dees players not working hard enough.....Rockliff 44 possies....Dees must have let him run around on his own all day as Rocky isnt known for knocking himself out to get the tough ball.
Agree on McKay....not that comfortable rucking and was brushed aside in a few ruck contests......to Casboult or not to Casboult thats the question?....not sure of Lobbe's injury status?
I'd ruck Jones for some X factor but with our backline lacking proven key talls its not an option....
