Can't play SPS, Docherty and Saad in the same back half. All three trying to play the same role with zero accountability.
Saad's first half manning Billings at the stoppages, in particular, was poor. He got lucky twice where Billings got goal side and a teammate put a block on Saad, only for a ruck free kick and a smothered kick instead.
Get the feeling we'll continue to persist with this for about half the year, because we'll smash crap sides on the rebound, despite getting torn up by sides who have a decent inside 50 set up.
Liked O-Mac's game. First time I've seen him as a forward, think he can play the Levi role pretty well - showed a lot more urgency when he presented high up the ground, and there's probably a slight upside to his ruckwork. He's certainly ahead of Moore. I'd have him in for round 1 with the injury concerns.
Don't think Murphy is a certainty for round 1 either.
GREAT POINT SPOOKY
Teague better not stick to a losing strategy
With 6-6-6 rule and standing the mark, we have to be more accountable than last night.
Murphy's defensive running is hopeless, but he is a smart operator in the forwardline otherwise: downhill skiier.
There's a few players whose defensive running is questionable AND can we stop this decade long strategy since before the list turnover of corralling players.
FFS close down the space and with that time AND they might stick a few tackles...these are 1%ers all the top teams do.
We shouldn't be coralling....otherwise there will be NO perceived pressure
