But a side will often be the better side early on, and the match will turn on it's head with a momentum switch.
What the injuries meant was that there was never going to be that momentum change...and as the match wore on it became even more depressing as players went down.
As well as the obvious injuries there were another couple where players felt for knees (Williams) and shoulders (Acres).
If there's one thing the Dawks have demonstrated over the past couple of months is that their pressure and game style is sustained. Our history over most of this season is that we're terribly inconsistent. The extent of the Dawks winning margin can in part be attributed to our injury toll... but not the loss.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
