Our forward movement is far too predictable and any side with a half-decent back six can make our scoring dry up (Saints and Lions have both done it easily).Tonyo I think our dare and run was there, we just kept giving it to blokes in Brisbane jumpers. Even the commentators said it one point, I think it was a Weiters grubber kick to a running Doc maybe? The idea was there, the kick was poor which resulted in a slight fumble then Brisbane player pouncing to apply pressure and the TO and it went straight back for a goal. Thats demoralising. I just expect better from players of that that experience.
Stats show we had more than our share of the ball, but the second and third quarters we showed no dare and run. In fact, if Brisbane had kicked straight, we would have been 10 goals down at 3/4 time.
Very disappointing, and I feel this is a portent of yet another mid-table finish.
