We put the cue in the rack when Acres went off.

We're supposedly not relying on individuals.
Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

The counter argument is that you can't maintain the level of intensity and pressure for an extended period.
At some stage that takes both a mental and physical toll.
Given we have a few players missing I'm more than comfortable with this result.
They have everything to play for.

The old "you shouldn't flirt with form" is just a cliche like "one week at a time".
We'll be a different side in two weeks time.

I'm not referring to players that are spent but still busting their nut. I'm talking about a pre engineered mindset that instructs players to go a little easy.

Outs: Durdin, Dow, Fisher, Marchbank

In: Motlop, Kennedy, Cripps, Docherty

Sub: Dow

Docherty can give us more than Fisher can

Kennedy can give us more than Dow - especially in finals - bigger body

Dow has been good. A real shame if he gets dropped IMO.
