An extra tall back would have helped for sure, but I'm not convinced it was the difference. I think the back 6/7 did a great job. Apart from goal kicking, I think ball use, decision making and pressure up the ground were bigger issues tonight. Teague said in the post match that even though we laid the same number of tackles as the Cats, our tackles weren't effective because the Cats players too often were able to dish off and keep the ball moving.
One of our poorer games for the year IMO. Apart from the 1st q, the game was played mostly on their terms.
