In this case, it shows we don't have an issue getting first use. we don't have an issue getting our hands on the ball. It's what happens after that causes the problems.
Bolton referenced CHF a couple of times in his presser - as we all know, our forward line and delivery into the forward line are the major problems.
Granted Casboult, Everitt et all are playing like gooses but our midfield/ruck is a far larger problem imo. Fix that, the forwards will 'improve' immeasurably.
Simple fact is (sadly) - and noting he's still relatively young - but Kreuzer simply doesn't cut it against the better ruckman in the league these days.
Cripps is either injured or missing in action and Gibbs gets tagged stupid every game now. Curnow in a lull and Sam having a quiet patch too.
Really need to acquire a top notch inside mid asap.
And our midfield goes missing way too often, especially defensively.
Finals, then 4 in a row!
