Good points Raydan!
Another issue I have with our team selection is that we don't seem to want to make it difficult for the opposition defenders. Five of our forwards on Sunday were 180cm or shorter. Five of Melbourne's forwards (including Petracca) were 186cm or taller. Which defence was stretched?
Yes, Cuningham was subbed early and McGovern, Charlie, McDonald, Jack, Kemp and Martin are unavailable, so we don't have many other taller options. I'm not entirely sold on Kennedy, as I think he doesn't get nearly enough of the ball, but at least he knows how to lead and can take a mark.
