I am not sure Charlie is anywhere near his best yet. His five goals indicate what he could do if he does meet his potential. I still think we are one key defender short on our list. McDonald going down could cause problems. Big chance for Young to show his wears. Marchbank is still a way off. I thought Plowman did a good job when he cam on. The other option if we have more problems in this area is for Silvagni to go back there.
As I keep saying, if you can't kick the ball to your team mates you don't have a game plan. The last fifteen minutes was a worry when we couldn't his a target coming out of defence. The team obviously tired, and our skills dropped off, but I think they panicked a bit while also trying to be too careful. The players have just got to trust their skills. I like the fact that they are using their non-preferred foot when kicking at times rather than trying to get onto their preferred side. That second or two they save in time doing that helps to move the ball forward quicker.
Our team discipline work still needs improvement. There was an incident where Kennedy handballed the ball backwards to no one which may seem like an error on his part but in fact a team mate should have been there. That is the strength of a team like Sydney. There is always someone there.
The Bulldogs are a good team that played well for three and a half quarters, but when we went in the second quarter, they weren't able to go with us. Things are looking good and while I don't think we should get ahead of ourselves, I have booked myself in for my Premiership Threepete Tattoo.
