The forward line is dysfunctional and actually an asset to the opposition.
It's not the KPFs that are the problem, in those rounds from 4 through to 7 it was the absence of an effective small forward that hurt us, Owies was out Rnd 4 to 9 inclusive, Motlop and Durdin kept going with the status quo, but the lost goals of Owies were never covered!
It's a bit to easy to "remember" things differently to what they are, and come to a one size fits all conclusion that is actually wrong!
In any case, last weekend was the odd game out, we had all that dominance and couldn't score at all, when actually this season our scoring efficiency from F50s has been quite good but we just haven't been going in enough, too many unforced turnovers from the last kick approaching F50 has been the typical error.
