Cas has had a couple of ok games and is our best contested mark, but over the last 2 weeks has been poor and has given away stupid free kicks as well.
Casboult needs a good game. Kicked a couple of goals again last week but he couldn't halve enough contests in the last few weeks.
Impossible to drop the only bloke kicking goals in your forward line though.
My problem is we need to try something different and see what the other guys can bring if we are to create a forward line that can kick a winning score. Cas has been given a lot of chances and has shown some glimpses, but he has severe limitations that we can all see. My hope for the 2nd half of the year is that we experiment and try different combinations up forward [with and without Cas] as this is a huge problem for us going forward that we don't seem to be any closer to solving. But this week against their strong and mature defence I think we are going to need Cas to provide a physical presence.
