VFL Rd 8: Northern Blues vs Sandringham at Marvel

[crashlander]

The stats are damning: when it was necessary to step up, very few guys did. Setterfield and Lang may have dominated early in the piece, but their opponents put in 4 quarters. We missed Tom Wilson badly: his grunt in the middle and ability to get 30+ possessions, providing leadership while he does it, was a critical missing piece.
However, it was the guys like Garlett (7 possessions), Macreadie, Polson, et al that let us down. These guys are capable of doing better, but are not showing it.
