All this 'Doom and Gloom'. The reality is we haven't played well for the first 5 games and have lost one game. I said to the boss on wed night when I seen the side we will get rolled. After following the Baggers for 63 years every time we look like having our best team in it happens. Go figure.
A couple of POSITIVES - Cowan, Hollands and Newys form.
All this talk of big bodies and getting smashed by the Crows, I remind all that we beat the reining premiers two weeks ago and they are not small. When you get smashed in the contest and get pushed off the ball it always comes down to the size of our players. We are not small; we are just not as quick as we need to be. Look at the Daicos Bros, Pendles and Sidebottom, they are not monsters, they are smart. Having Sammy back will help. Our structure was stuffed on Thu night when Gov pulled out and Pitt was subbed. No Doc also hurts. Don't blame our backline blame the lazy midfielders.
Sure, we have some weaknesses on the list and this will be addressed at the end of the year. We have to get a quality Ruckman and we need some more speed around the ball. TDK and SOS are not the answer in the ruck.
We cannot keep players on the list who are continually injured. There is bad luck and there is Martin and co. Start cleaning out your lockers Martin, Cunners and Marchy. Need to give Cincotto and Dow a few games to prove themselves.
I expect a complete turnaround against the Aints next Sunday. Hopefully Gov and Pitt will be OK.
