An extra midfielder may have been handy (who!!), but there were probably a few factors in the Geelong surge, some mental (I expected them to come at us, and the players probably had a few doubts when it got close.)
Anyway in the end we won, so it worked OK.
Maybe we should've played Dow?
Maybe we should've played a back and let Docherty play midfield?
Little impact? Possibly, but same impact as a few others who played the whole game. As i said, if his 2 behinds were 2 goals, he'd be a hero.
Obrien could've had the same impact (albeit not much) when we swapped out some other alternative.
BUT....the rest of our midfielders would've been fresher as the load would've been spread across another body prior to all of that.
So because we won, we don't need to review what went right and what went wrong?
