Just watched the 1st half again. Some observations.
JSOS into the ruck cost us at least 3 goals.
Cerra's kick into the forward line, spotting up Durdin, was so dumb I couldn't believe it... guess who Durdin's nearest Rottingwood opponent was? Cox. 1 metre player versus 5 metre player.
The number of times we kicked it to their tallest bloke on the ground (Cox) was astonishing.
We handed Moore a record number of intercepts with predictable/lazy inside 50 kicks, but I understand as there were just no more options other than H and Charles.
Acres foot disposal under pressure gave Rottingwood too many looks.
Ed... too many times - kick'nhope.
Look much better when Charles and H play well apart, eg one of them playing high half forward leading up to the aggot and the other remaining deep.
We did a lot right, just critical disposal errors and/or choice errors.
2 blatant 50s did not go our way.
I don't get the criticisms of our backline, the delivery in waves into our D50 was at times indefensible. The up-field pressure was zilch.
Hollands just doesn't hurt the opposition enough with his disposals.
For the Fluffy Ducks game: Out - Ed, JSOS, Hollands, Young & Durdin
In: TDK (for JSOS), Binns (for Hollands), Kemp (for Young), Cowan (for Ed) & Dow (for Durdin). Dow & Chugga changing midfield/half forward.
(2 small forwards only - Owies & Motlop).

Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
