Is it set up, is it form, is it instruction, are we one trick pony's in the middle and opposition has figured us out and don't have a plan B? - time will tell but they need to start improving and get back to how they were playing last year.
We've obviously just got Walsh back.
Hewitt had his issues.
Pittonet hasn't got back to match fitness yet from his extended layoff.
I think cerra had some issues as well.
Kennedy has had recent issues.
If we can keep the groupnsomewhat for from here, we'll see a much better unit in a month or 2 with some more games under their belts.
Just as an aside.....SOJ got more clearances than those players mentioned above playing backup ruck. Yet people fixate on his (poor?) game, but all those midfielders barely rate a mention for their weak efforts by comparison.
