It's also in many cases their 'unwanted' first rounders which puts us well behind.
Isn't the problem with that though, that we're trying to do a duplication of the GWS/ Gold Coast situation without the draft concessions.
(We may pick up Ben Silvagni but at this stage the one he's likely to replace would be his brother.)
He's got a few mates there Paul, both on the show and off it.
I added a few extra bits
Im gutted we lost, but we were so close to pulling off a win despite how poorly we played for the majority of the game. I said it in the In Game Thread, there was a point late in the last where if we kicked 2 in a row, the Bullies sphincters really would have tightened. Sure enough, we got one then Charlie got in great position and shanked one he really should have kicked. It would have been on like donkey kong but alas. Point is, we've got a hell of a lot of room for improvement but only need to do a few things better at certain points in games when they are in the balance. I say again, I'm gutted we lost (more so for the boys than us supporters) but it can turn around very quickly if we grab our chances when they present.
They showed us, looked like more than half the team was missing.
I think they had exactly 1/2, but reality is they fielded the average youngest side this season, and it was naive for BB to use our youth as an excuse!
I thought BB post-match analysis was accurate, the problems were clear and he identified them.
They said 11 on the broadcast
BB was a bit naive in the post match presser, he used age and experience as a reason for the troubles, but we were just beaten by a younger less experienced side as CheatsFC TV liked to remind us!
The result was disappointing but we were missing 4 of the top 5 from last year's B&F along with Weitering, Pickett and Byrne, so considering that we finished 16th with them all playing it's hardly surprising that we're struggling.
There were positives however.
McKay is very clean, no fumbles or indecision unlike some of our more senior players, and will be a nice player in time, maybe even a top liner, and Fisher is going from strength to strength.
There's also a lot to like about both O'Brien and Dow, so I expect better performances when we can at least get Murphy and Kreuzer back in the side, it's hard to be patient but there's just no other option.
