I've thought about it. The more this goes on the more I think our players are in poor condition and our pre season must have been rubbish. Why that is could be anyone's guess but hollands, a first year player is showing more nous and ability than guys in the system for 4 years plus.
Cotters for all his vaunted running power and fitness has had a massive spell and yet looked in better nick than most of them. This equation is one that is simple enough to gauge.
Our strength and conditioning is off which has led to more and more lack of belief and more execution problems.
Our game management suggests the same. We are stopping and slowing the game down as much as possible to get numbers up the park. That's a sign of a team who isn't capable of running a game out and is only willing to take the game on when they have to.
It's simplistic to say the coach has no idea or we are easy to play against.
Our set shot kicking is deplorable too. Another sign the players are not in prime condition.
Worst thing is that we tend to get worse not better in this regard and our formline is actually getting eorse not better.
