This is a concern.

Ball use and forward 50 entries has been absolute trash

scoring from them does, yes.

we won't dominate stoppage and scoring from stoppage like we did in our win streak.

The game is quicker in finals so you'd assume contests should go down as a result.
I'm sure there are stats out there if they do.

We've been the 2nd best defensive team in the league, today with 5th locked in we've conceded 13 goals with 2 mins left in the 3rd. I wouldn't read anything into it.

There's a team out there fighting for their lives

And another team not wanting to get injured

Is what it is

Why have we abandoned the method of ball movement that won us 9 games in a row? Just bombing it blindly all day

if we were in the game, i'd agree


the fact we're getting spanked, isn't good. no other top 8 team was spanked

Only come back from 26 points at 3/4 time eleven times.

Not looking very Premiership-y right now.
