Again, i'm not just talking about 1 game. I'm talking all year.
Lets look at it this way. A few close losses against the top teams is 'acceptable'. Confidence levels don't take too much of a hit.
However, turn one of those close losses into a win, and suddenly confidence levels rise. Imagine if the 16 point loss to the dogs was a win. That kind of confidence boost can lead to potentially more wins.....etc
....and its not just personnel, but where they are played too. Murphy proved he is more effective in the middle than up forward.
I'm all for giving the kids a run through the middle, but when its crunch time. Put your best players in the middle.
If you are happy with the teams that are announced each week, i think you are in the minority.
