One thing I did think was dumb in our play was how we bombed the ball into F50 all too often against one of the best aerial defences in the league - MacGovern, Barrass and Sheppard. who were dining out on it. I noticed on two or three occasions even the ball being bombed to a one on one with MacGovern and Fisher! Also the devastating period of play by WC, end of 1Q/start of 2Q from memory, really set us back. Their skills and ball movement in that period I think were as good as you'd ever see. Anyway, we weren't massacred, at least we hung in, which is a great sign atm, at this stage of our development.
Reality always wins in the end.
