In the past we have just let Murphy, Gibbs or Cripps deal with a hard tag but there seemed to be a definite plan to make things difficult for Greenwood. Twenty-two possessions and two goals must be one of the best performances by Gibbs when tagged and a lot of that is down to Curnow.
I thought Curnow did the job on Treloar but Pendlebury destroyed us ...Greenwood(23 possies/9tackles/one goal) did the job on Gibbs IMO and while Gibbs was reasonable I thought Greenwood intimidated him and reduced his effectiveness including a forearm to the face which Gibbs didnt respond hard enough to IMO.
I think Gibbs has been good but both he and Murphy need some help in the rough stuff dept and I reckon someone like Robbo out there last night might have made life easier for Gibbs.
